I am sorry for causing you troubles. However I always send you patches
using git format-patch and git send-email, but it this case I just
replied to Jan's patch to let you know that my previous attempts to fix
this was not right. Jan sent it to you and to the ext4 list, so you should
have the original, no need to manually pick out this one.

However I did screw up with two different versions which both were wrong
and I am sorry about that...will try to do better next time and to
version my patches.

Thanks!
