The new features include atomic_open whose main benefit will be the reduction in locking overhead in case of combined lookup/create and open operations, sorting the log buffer lists by block number to improve the efficiency of AIL writeback, and agressively issuing revokes in gfs2_log_flush to reduce overhead when dropping glocks, Steve.
