PATCH 1/1 Reiserfs fixes for 2.4.17-rc2

Hello!

Attached are 2 fixes for reiserfs in 2.4.17-rc2
map_block_for_writepage_highmem_fix-1.diff fixes oops on incorerct access to (possibly) unkmapped highmem pages. mmaped_data_loss_fix.diff fixes a problem where some data may be lost if mmap-writed data is subsequently appended by data written with write(2), and because of that mmapped data is lost. (Originally found by fsx tool)

Bye,
Oleg
