What can I say...
Of course, we can complain to RMS, but they will find a reason to not
include it...
I have uploaded your patch here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/reiser4/files/patches
This is for distributions who maintain their own forks of GNU parted.
Thanks!
Edward.

The actual stuff about reiser4 can be found here:

Thanks for the correction. I'm still not interested. I have absolutely
no desire to see Reiser's work or name do anything but disappear into
obscurity.
Then, for the sake of not making other potential Reiser4 contributors
lose their time -- falsely believing in the technical meritocracy of
FOSS -- I suggest that you place the above statement at the GNU Parted
site.
Last I read (< http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/ >) *before
submitting my Reiser4 patch* I could not find a notice *explicitly*
stating that Reiser4 work is not to be evaluated on its technical
merits but rather on a personal 'morality', religious fanaticism,
and/or subjective 'altruism' and/or prejudice. I even checked for the
relevant 'Reiser' string at the development site (<
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/parted/ >) with NULL results.
Notwithstanding, selectively applying a personal subjective criteria
to Reiser4 and not, say JFS for instance, seems more of a
contradictory attitude --as code contributions from organizations with
exponentially darker backgrounds (<
http://listverse.com/2013/10/24/10-big-business-nazi-profiteers/ >)
than Reiser are included -- specifically in Parted -- without
compunction.
Best Professional Regards.
