Thanks Peter... I had this question because one of the project I am working on had a two different flavour of UFS.. one is UFS and other one is UFS64 bit, ported on proprietary OS.

thanks for the confirmation.....the only thing that matters is
performance. as the data structure for the VFS layer is independent
(generally, i think) of 64 or 32bit kernel, so it should be indep of
64/32bit kernel, but because 64bit have a larger data I/O rate, so
performance should be higher....at the expense of more memory
consumed......
