I think we need to make this larger, perhaps 128. I just noticed a few
of the inode-test strings are >64 chars (and it should probably also
use strncpy() to copy to description, which is my bad).

Why did you reintroduce a space between * and __next? AFAIK, this
should follow the same style as the rest of the kernel, and it should
just be 'thetype *ptr'.
