  Yeah, originally I thought it might be useful to support a possibility of
multiblock writes but in the end we never needed it and currently e.g. OCFS2
would already BUG on that so yes, this is a good simplification.
  Acked-by: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>

  I've merged the ext3 version of the patch into my tree. Ted, will you
merge this ext4 cleanup please?
