The following is a series of patches related to Unionfs. They represent a few code cleanups (suggested or inspired by comments on the previous set of patches), and a few more bug fixes (esp. to cache coherency). These fixes were tested on our 2.6.23-rc6 latest code, as well as the backports to 2.6.{22,21,20,19,18,9} on ext2/3/4, xfs, reiserfs, nfs, jffs2, ramfs, tmpfs, cramfs, and squashfs (where available). See http://unionfs.filesystems.org/ to download backported unionfs code.
