  Hmm, your patch still has mangled whitespaces and wrapped long lines.
Please make sure your mailer doesn't do it or use git send-email to send
patches. Also the subject line misses "ext2:" in the beginning (after
[PATCH]). Finally, I've further changed the text in the comment because
"And" does not really make sense in that context to me. The patch I now
carry in my tree is below.
