  To: Linus Torvalds; +Cc: Linux Kernel

Linus, please do a

	bk pull http://linux-ntfs.bkbits.net/ntfs-tng-2.5

Thanks! This is just some cleanups, mostly the BUG_ON() cleanups from
Adam J. Richter. Just to relax a bit after the big changes in the
last ntfs update. (-;

Best regards,

	Anton

   NTFS: 2.0.24 - Cleanups.
   - Treat BUG_ON() as ASSERT() not VERIFY(), i.e. do not use side effects
     inside BUG_ON(). (Adam J. Richter)
   - Split logical OR expressions inside BUG_ON() into individual BUG_ON()
     calls for improved debugging. (Adam J. Richter)
   - Add errors flag to the ntfs volume state, accessed via
     NVol{,Set,Clear}Errors(vol).
   - Do not allow read-write remounts of read-only volumes with errors.
   - Clarify comment for ntfs file operation sendfile which was added by
     Christoph Hellwig a while ago (just using generic_file_sendfile())
     to say that ntfs ->sendfile is only used for the case where the
     source data is on the ntfs partition and the destination is
     somewhere else, i.e. nothing we need to concern ourselves with.

Correct, and if you look at the code you will notice the #ifdef NTFS_RW 
around it... The read-only compiled driver doesn't have any write related 
code. Only the read-write compiled driver has, but at the moment this is 
just adding necesary safety bits before starting to add actual write code. 
Writing is under development and you will be seing more and more bits 
related to it appearing. (-:

Best regards,

         Anton

Very cool.  I'm looking forward to trying it.  I occasionally
