   Start from taking ext2, UFS and NFS out of ->u. in struct inode. Yup,
   separate allocation and inlined function (ext2_ino(inode)) that would
   return the pointer to private part of inode. I can send you my old (circa
   2.2.early) patch that does it for ext2 tonight - hope that will help.

Can we please save this for 2.5?   If it's not absolutely necessary
to fix a critical bug, I think we're much better off not making changes
to core parts of the kernel at this point.
