Patch attached. The patch order should be 2.2.18-prex-aa2,
reiserfs-3.5.25, this patch. I tested against pre3-aa2.
LFS changes for filldir, reiserfs_readpage, and adds limit checking in
file_write to make sure we don't go above 2GB (Andi Kleen). Also fixes
include/linux/fs.h, which does not patch cleanly for 3.5.25 because of usb.
Note, you might see debugging messages about items moving during
copy_from_user. These are safe, but I'm leaving them in for now as I'd
like to find out why copy_from_user is suddenly scheduling much more than
it used to.

No, it is still only 90% done.
