Ah... jbd part of it is still there, jbd2 is *also* there, but it's got
ext4-mm- prefix to filename. And looking at ext4.git, jbd2 side of that
stuff *is* merged, so what the hell is it doing in a separate file?
Looks like -mm has ext4 stuff not as a single patch (like it does for
many other git trees) but split into individual changesets for some
reason...

Anyway, as long as this stuff gets eventually merged...
