Even better, thanks.

And big thank you to you and Jan and Carlos for the very quick and
welcoming reviews.  If only Hugh were able to respond like that...

Needing "freed = 0" in shmem_evict_inode(), as reported by robot:
that was stupid of me (though it happens not to matter what the value
is in the uninitialized case): I'll send you the fixup to 3/5 tomorrow
(unless it turns out that you've typed in the " = 0" yourself already).

And I'll send a replacement for 4/5, the direct IO one, following
Christoph's guidance: but I'm wilting, and just didn't get to it today.

Hugh
