Thanks.

Al, any chance to merge patches 1 and 2 upstream early in this round? They
should be fairly non intrusive and back compatible. Then I can get the
filesystem specific patches to their maintainers and you won't have to
bother with them.

ecryptfs is being fixed to use notify_change rather than vmtruncate (which
is anyway buggy today), so that won't be a problem.

I think we'll be able to get rid of old protocol completely within just
a couple of releases. Jan and Christoph have made pretty good progress
there.
