Commits 1..9 (already in -mm): These patches are already in Andrew Morton's -mm tree. fsstack: Introduce fsstack_copy_{attr,inode}_* fsstack: Remove unneeded wrapper eCryptfs: Use fsstack's generic copy inode attr functions fsstack: Fix up eCryptfs compilation struct path: Rename Reiserfs's struct path struct path: Rename DM's struct path struct path: Move struct path from fs/namei.c into include/linux struct path: make eCryptfs a user of struct path fs/stack.c should #include Commits 10..11 (additional fixes to the above) These patches are not yet in -mm, and they fix two things the above patches missed. fsstack: Make fsstack_copy_attr_all copy inode size fsstack: Fix up ecryptfs's fsstack usage Commits 12..35 (Unionfs): These patches make up stripped down version of Unionfs. They depend on fsstack (see above patches).
