TAKE - merge upto 2.4.8

[Steve Lord <lord@sgi.com>]

A little more painful than usual, the super block locking changes
took a little while to work out. The way xfs syncs inodes out to
disk has changed a little, how it is triggered, not how it is
implemented. If you see anything odd in this area let me know.
