Oh, I forgot the revert patch.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] nilfs2,ubifs: Fix error empty_aops undefined
With the ->sync_page() hook gone, we have a few users that
add their own static address_space_operations without any
functions defined.
This patch fixes the following issues:
ERROR: "empty_aops" [fs/ubifs/ubifs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "empty_aops" [fs/nilfs2/nilfs2.ko] undefined!
Note: "fs: export empty_aops" patch needs to be reverted first!

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] ubifs: Move {inode,file}_operations to create_xattr() and use empty_{iops,fops}
Consider inode_operations and file_operations have also no
functions defined and move them to create_xattr().
Transform to empty_{iops,fops} (see fs/inode.c and fs/open.c).
