*	[PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 1	Arjan van de Ven	2007-02-12
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

*	[PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structure	Theodore Ts'o	2006-09-27
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function. Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect) values for i_blksize.

*	[PATCH] mark address_space_operations const	Christoph Hellwig	2006-06-28
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Same as with already do with the file operations: keep them in .rodata and prevents people from doing runtime patching.

*	[PATCH] BUG_ON() Conversion in fs/configfs/	Eric Sesterhenn / snakebyte	2006-02-03
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	this changes if() BUG(); constructs to BUG_ON() which is cleaner, contains unlikely() and can better optimized away. Signed-off-by: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
*	configfs: Add permission and ownership to configfs objects.	Joel Becker	2006-02-03
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	configfs always made item and attribute ownership root.root and permissions based on a umask of 022. Add ->setattr() to allow chown(2)/chmod(2), and persist the changes for the lifetime of the items and attributes.

*	[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_sem	Jes Sorensen	2006-01-09
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different. Modified-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> (finished the conversion) Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
*	[PATCH] configfs: User-driven configuration filesystem	Joel Becker	2006-01-03
	Configfs, a file system for userspace-driven kernel object configuration. The OCFS2 stack makes extensive use of this for propagation of cluster configuration information into kernel. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
