<title>[PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structure</title>

This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode.  Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.

Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.

* Rougly half of callers already do it by not checking return value
* Code in drivers/acpi/osl.c does the following to be sure:

	(void)kmem_cache_destroy(cache);

* Those who check it printk something, however, slab_error already printed
  the name of failed cache.
* XFS BUGs on failed kmem_cache_destroy which is not the decision
  low-level filesystem driver should make. Converted to ignore.

<title>[PATCH] Fix BeFS slab corruption</title>

In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:

"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption.  This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length.  [...]

Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me.  (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)

Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ...  Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""

This patch implements the suggested fix. Credits to Jens Kilian for
debugging the problem and finding the right fix.
