Ahh, thanks for the clarification here. At some point I saw a patch
that did make this change, and it stuck with me that it was the
preferred method. This won't happen again.

The updated patch to keep the extra indentation for configfs, along with
the three extra 'depends CONFIGFS_FS' patches from yesterday are
available in a pullable branch against this afternoon's
linux-2.6.git/master here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/scsi-post-merge-2.6.git for-linus

Please let me know if you have any questions,
