If this list can potentially have one (or more) entries per inode, then
filesystems with a lot of inodes (millions) may potentially exceed the
max size of list which list_sort() can handle. If that happens it still
works, but you'll get a warning message and it won't be as efficient.

It is something that we've run into with list_sort() and GFS2, but it
only happens very rarely,

Steve.
