PATCH 1/1 data logging patches available for 2.4.21-preX

Hello all,

I've updated the data logging patches to 2.4.21-pre3, once the suse mirror is done updating, you can download them from:

ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mason/patches/data-logging/2.4.21

Changes:

mount -o remount can switch between data modes.

transaction overflow bug fix (BUG in journal_mark_dirty)

fix for -ENOSPC hang when the block size < page size (ia64, alpha)

integration with akpm's b_journal_head code from -ac. Should make it possible for these patches to work both on vanilla kernels and Alan's branch. I haven't tried this yet though, so testers would be appreciated.

commit_super is now sync_fs

I had to rework some of the data=ordered buffer handling code to merge with the changes in 2.4.21-preX, so use some caution with this code.
