Hello all, I've updated the reiserfs-jh patch, it's now at
reiserfs-jh-2.  The major changes are tested O_DIRECT + data=ordered
support, and a bug fix for an oops under memory pressure.

In general the patch has had a few more hours of testing on it now, and
I'm less worried about it making your computer catch on fire if you give
it a try.
