ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.70/2.5.70-mm4/
. There are no substantial ext3 changes from 2.5.70-mm3. A couple of
performance tweaks have been added, and some debug code to help track down
one report of an assertion failure in journal_dirty_metadata().
. A patch which adds the statfs64() syscall. This involved some mangling
of the BSD accountig code. If anyone knows how to test BSD accounting,
please do so, or let me know.
. There have been one or two reports of -mm3 getting stuck in
get_request_wait() against CDROMs. If anyone sees that, or was seeing it
in -mm3 and does not see it in -mm4, please let us know.
