It's good to clean this up, but this presumes that blk_t is going to change to a 64-bit type. I'd much rather *add* a blk64_t, and keep blk_t at 32 bits. This patch series in a number of places makes the presumption that blk_t will change size --- in particular when it creates new interfaces that returns 64-bits through a blk_t. Please don't do that.
Does it mean that we'll have to duplicate all of the structures containing fields of type blk_t (like process_block_struct, e2fsck_struct, ext2_inode_cache, ...) and also duplicate most of the code for the functions which use variables of type blk_t?
