Thanks for the review, Darrick.

I think at one point Dave said that if you touch more than 1 filesystem with a
series you should just CC linux-fsdevel and omit the individual filesystems?
I realize that this series only touches ext2 and ext4 a little, but that's
what I opted for.

Is that sufficient to get to the rest of the XFS developers, or would you like
a resend adding linux-xfs?
