So this is a bit more of a personal preference thing, but I like to
keep the libext2fs changes from the changes to the userspace
applications, and then combine the changes to the userspace progams
(mke2fs and tune2fs in this case) with the man page updates.

So you might want to consider moving the mke2fs and tune2fs changes
from the previous patch and then combining them with this patch, and
adjusting the commit message appropriately?

So as I recall, aren't we currently calculating the fast commit size
as a fraction of the total journal size?  I'm not sure this is in sync
with was in the last patch.
