(some nitpicking below)

Thanks, Richard.  IMO this patchset is great at the moment.  Now if I
checkpoint a container, migrate it to another machine, and restart it
there, the serial numbers will no longer match, but as the creations are
all logged, userspace can track the changed snum, so I don't believe
that is a problem.  (Pretty sure we've discussed that before, mostly
mentioning it here to think through it myself)
