​All right. So I run the tests on the set with both this and the original
version of this patch and there is no change in results. Here and there
some tests failed on one run, but on other runs they are ok and I can't get
them to fail again (namely, xfs/033, 073 and 085 did this).

It looks like whatever the issues were to start the changes, they are
already resolved. Thus, I will send the original patch in the next batch.


Cheers,
​Jan​
