Thank you so much on making this effort to include the EXT4 test cases
in LTP. We were actually long searching for such tests which will test
only the specific features of EXT4. And now we have it. I have included
your tests in LTP which is readily available now in LTP repository.

I will soon send out a mail to some EXT4 experts regarding the
sub-directory tests failure and get some opinion of them.
