HI Joseph,

Thank you for providing comments. I have addressed them and sent a V1 version for review.

Thanks,
Gautham.

^ ditto.

And since there are many places access OCFS2_I(new_inode), I'd like define a variable for it. This can also make code in one line much shorter. e.g.
struct ocfs2_inode_info *oi = OCFS2_I(inode);

Add a blank line here.

BTW, also cc lkml.

Thanks,
Joseph
