Thanks, applied.

Note: I changed ext2fs_hashmap_add() to return an int instead of an
errocode_t.  The commit description said it was going to be an int,
and the code returns -1 (so I fixed the commit description to reflect
-1).  Note that errcode_t is not appropriate for non-errno / com_err
error codes.  So making the function prototype of hashmap_add() to
return an int is the correct thing to do.

Cheers,
