Is the whole "mixing kernel structures in userspace structures" all
resolved now?  For some reason I thought that you had kernel locks being
passed to userspace and then back into the kernel, but it's been a long
time since I last looked...

If you feel you are ready for a "real" review, I'll be glad to go over
the code before the vfs people look at it, just let me know.  No need to
bother them if you still have basic things wrong that I can find...

thanks,
