Talk to Marcelo.  If he ever merges the 32bit quota patch I could start
to feed him the few remaining XFS core changes, but without that it's
not worth to even start.


Marcelo,

The 32bit quota backport has been in Alan's -ac series for ages now. I should think it has been thoroughly tested by now. I can't speak for everyone, but for me it operates quite well with XFS. Would it be possible to merge it into mainline anytime soon? If not, what remaining barriers prevent you from doing so?

Cheers,
Nicholas
