None of the comments below are a reason against mainline inclusion, imo.
They should get handled, but whether that happens before or after a
merge doesn't really matter.

Current verdict seems to be that these files should live in fs/squashfs/,
not include/linux/.  No kernel code beside squashfs needs the headers
and userspace tools should have a private copy.

Most code uses "sb" and "inode", which I consider easier to read - if
only for consistency.

Is your "long long inode" what most filesystems call "inode->i_ino"?  It
seems to be.

Most linux functions return 0 on success and -ESOMETHING on error.  You
return 0 on error and 1 on success.  That makes it likely for someone
else to do something like

        err = squashfs_foo(bar);
        if (err)
                goto fail;

Oops.
