FYI, 1.8 and 2.0 used to share the ldiskfs patches (we lost this with the 
transition to git), so the ldiskfs module shipped with 1.8.5 (which supports 
SLES11 SP1) already has most of the patches required for lustre 2.0.0. I think 
it would have been less painful to start from there and to add the missing 
patches (e.g. data_in_dirent.patch).

Cheers,
Johann
