What sort of implications are you concerned about? We're no longer exposing anything via the xattr interface, and all of the changes are not contained strictly within the ext4 tree. There are still are some cleanups which I'm still in the process of applying, but I considered it more likely than not something that was ready for 4.1, so that's why I let it go into the ext4 dev branch for testing in linux-next.
