I've rebased the gfs2 iomap-write branch onto that; there's a trivial patch for adding a private pointer to struct iomap at the head of that branch that would sense to move to the shared branch as well now. The next step would probably be to start using iomap_readpage / iomap_readpages in gfs2 for block size == page size. This requires adding inline data support to iomap_readpage which is trivial, but because of gfs2's reliance on buffer heads, that alone isn't enough. Thanks, Andreas
