. Fix up the bug in reiser4_init_super_data():
  The pointer "p" to opt_desc structure is not
  incremented.
  Pass "&p" instead of "p" to push_sb_field_opts(),
  which is supposed to increment the pointer.
. Modify macros PUSH_OPT, OPT_ARRAY_CHECK to accept
  arguments.

      This is the main reiserfs4 filesystem. · e6732faf
      Vladimir Saveliev authored 
      Q&A wrt this patch:

- A really short guide to how to get up and running with this filesystem.

        Reiser4 is a file system based on dancing tree algorithms, and
        is described at http://www.namesys.com.  One should be able to get it
        up and running just like any of the other filesystems supported by
        Linux.  Configure it to be compiled either builtin or as a module. 
        Create reiser4 filesystem with mkfs.reiser4, mount and use it.  More
        detailed info can be found at
        http://thebsh.namesys.com/snapshots/LATEST/READ.ME.

- The direct URL which people use to obtain the mkfs tool for this
  filesystem.  Also fsck and anything else.

        Reiser4 userland tools can be obtained at
        ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs. 
        ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs/README contains detailed
        instructions on how to compile and install these tools.  Also all
        reiser4 progs have man pages.  

- Any known shortcomings, caveats, etc.

        Reiser4 has been tested on i386 yet only.  Quota support is
        not ready yet.  Should be ready soon.  Reiser4 was tested extensively,
        and we got to where the mailing list was not able to hit any bugs, but
        then we told people that, got an order of magnitude increase in users,
        and they are able to hit bugs that we are working on now.

        Reiser's Law of Software Engineering: Each order of magnitude
        increase in users finds more bugs, in a quantity equal to the previous
        order of magnitude increase in users.  Success for software developers
        is measured by how long the frustration lasts.

        Only the very core functionality is working.  Exotic plugins,
        an API for multiple operation transactions and accessing multiple
        small files in one syscall, compression, inheritance, all have been
        postponed until after the core functionality is shipped.  The
        compression plugin needs a code review before anyone should use it.

- A statement on compatibility with reiserfs3 filesytems.

        To upgrade from reiserfs V3 to V4, use tar, or sponsor us to
        write a convertfs.

- Bear in mind that people will immediately benchmark this filesytem, and
  first impressions count.  Now is your chance to communicate any tuning
  guidelines, mount options or whatever which you'd like people to understand
  BEFORE they start publishing benchmark info.

        Reiser4 is not tuned for fsync/sync/O_SYNC performance yet.  

        If you see results that are much different from those at
        www.namesys.com/benchmarks.html, let us know.  If you see performance
        characteristics that don't quite make sense, email
        reiserfs-list@namesys.com, such things are always of interest.

        reiser4 is not tuned for mmaping and dirtying more than
        physical ram like IOzone does.  This is quite different in its code
        path from writing and dirtying more than physical ram.  There are
        those who think that what IOZone does is rarely done by real programs,
        and therefor we should not bother to optimize what it does.  All I
        know is, this month we are not optimized for it.

        Please consider its space savings when you benchmark it also.

reiser4: use simple_prepare_write to zero page data
EDESC
It's common for file systems to need to zero data on either side of a
write, if a page is not Uptodate during prepare_write.  It just so happens
that simple_prepare_write() in libfs.c does exactly that, so we can avoid
duplication and just call that function to zero page data.

Reiser4: Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_io

This patch pushes into Reiser4 the changes introduced by
commit 6712ecf8:

	As bi_end_io is only called once when the request is complete,
	the 'size' argument is now redundant.  Remove it.

	Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed
	from bi_size.  So don't do that either.

	While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

mm: clean up and kernelify shrinker registration
EDESC
I can never remember what the function to register to receive VM pressure
is called.  I have to trace down from __alloc_pages() to find it.

It's called "set_shrinker()", and it needs Your Help.

1) Don't hide struct shrinker.  It contains no magic.
2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker".  It's not helpful.
3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker".
4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker".
5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.

The comment in reiser4 makes me a little queasy.
