And partial code changing in hfsplus_listxattr() is completely useless. Because getxattr() and setxattr() series of methods will be the primary source of error in the case of worst-case unicode to char conversion. Otherwise, you can use any splitting of fixes between patches. In my last e-mail I suggested to use kmem cache approach for xattr names instead of kmalloc only.
