Hi,
Here is the patch against linux-next tree.
Current s_volume_name has 16 bytes, which is too small as modern filesystem.
s_last_mounted resides just after s_volume_name and has 64 bytes.
s_last_mounted is historically came from ext2, but not used in nilfs2 at all.
Deleting s_last_mounted member and merging that space with s_volume_name
enlarge s_volume_name upto 80 bytes for volume label.
When user land tools see the old header for new disk, it will just ignore
additional bytes stored in s_last_mounted. While, old disk format has only
16 bytes label, it doesn't affects in case seeing the new header for old disk.
