My intention was to help speed up the Union Mount effort by ensuring that patches don't rot waiting for developer's attention. Going by the past interactions, I got a feeling that you have lot of other work besides this, while I have time to spare on this. Hence wanted to do my bit to get patches moving as quickly as possible. As I have conveyed to you many times, I would still like you to maintain the patches and send out as timely as possible on lkml. If you can't do this because of your other commitments, then I would more than willing to maintain these and give them maximum attention. And thanks for making available the patches publicly, I have been asking this for months now.

Especially since I don't know which version of the patches he sent out :( The original patches where rotting in my queue for quite some time until Andreas got fed up with me having no time to work on them. Now since Andreas is busy working on other things I took over again.

[PATCH 00/13] Use struct path in struct nameidata
Hi Andrew, Could you please consider these patches for -mm ? These patches apply on 2.6.23-mm1 and are mostly a repost of earlier patches. Patches 1 to 11 have been Acked by Christoph Hellwig. Patch 12 is another instance where (vfsmnt, dentry) to path conversion is possible. Patch 13 is a patch which renames d_path to print_path and fixes comments as suggested by Christoph. Compile and boot tested on x86, x86_64 and powerpc.
