This patch has quite bad collisions with pending hfsplus changes in
linux-next.  Specifically
fs-hfsplus-move-xattr_name-allocation-in-hfsplus_setxattr.patch and
fs-hfsplus-move-xattr_name-allocation-in-hfsplus_getxattr.patch.

Would it be possible for you to redo the patch against linux-next?

Sorry, this doesn't happen often.

THanks.
