Hi Alan - 

We do have a "clean" set of patches with kdb, lvm, acl/extattr, etc
stripped out to make it easy to see "core" XFS.  However, even these
stripped down patches may not apply cleanly to -ac trees since we do our
development against Linus' tree.

Also, Alan C. is aware of XFS - although we're not directly submitting
to him (I don't think).  However, based on some of his diary entries,
I'm not sure he's quite ready to take it into his tree either.  We'll
just keep plugging away... :)

-Eric
