[PATCH 0/6] xfsprogs: sync kernel inode cluster size refactor code

[Jeff Liu]

Hi Folks,

This patch series sync up the code differences between kernel and user space
for xfs_icluster_size_fsb() relevant changes, i.e,
http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2013-12/msg00499.html

Most patches are similar to the kernel part except we have xfs_bulkstat() and
xfs_ifree_cluster() at kernel space but they are not presented at user space.   


Cheers,
-Jeff

Given that we need to do a wholesale resync of libxfs to the kernel
code, I'm not sure it makes sense to do little bits out of order.
it just makes syncing all the other prior changes harder because it
causes patch conflicts...

I'm planning that this is the first thing that we need to do
after the 3.2.0 release before anything else....

Cheers,

Dave.

Ok, so let's complete it at that point.
