[PATCH 0/6] inode version updated patches

[Kalpak Shah <kalpak@clusterfs.com>]

Hi,

I have updated the inode version patches and below are the details:

64-bit-i_version.patch which only replaces the 32-bit i_version field in
the generic inode with a 64-bit i_version field. The VFS-level updates
of the inode version are still in the i_version_update_vfs.patch and
this patch has been moved to the bottom of the patch series.

ext4_i_version_hi_2.patch was still using ei->i_fs_version instead of
inode->i_version. I have corrected this patch.

Also there were whitespace problems in i_version_hi.patch.

I am also attaching a ext4_no_version.patch which adds a "noversion"
mount option to disable inode version updates.

I am not sure why i_version needs to be updated in VFS since it is being
updated in ext4_mark_iloc_dirty().

Well, these are lots of small patches and I am sending them separately
so that they can be applied and commented upon easily.

Thanks,
Kalpak.
