We've got eight GFS2 patches for this merge window:

1. Andy Price submitted a patch to make gfs2_write_full_page a
    static function.
 2. Dan Carpenter submitted a patch to fix a ERR_PTR thinko.
 
 I've also got a few patches, three of which fix bugs related to
 deleting very large files, which cause GFS2 to run out of
 journal space:
 
 3. The first one prevents GFS2 delete operation from requesting too
    much journal space.
 4. The second one fixes a problem whereby GFS2 can hang because it
    wasn't taking journal space demand into its calculations.
 5. The third one wakes up IO waiters when a flush is done to restart
    processes stuck waiting for journal space to become available.
 
 The other three patches are a performance improvement related to
 spin_lock contention between multiple writers:
 
 6. The "tr_touched" variable was switched to a flag to be more atomic
    and eliminate the possibility of some races.
 7. Function meta_lo_add was moved inline with its only caller to make
    the code more readable and efficient.
 8. Contention on the gfs2_log_lock spinlock was greatly reduced by
    avoiding the lock altogether in cases where we don't really need
    it: buffers that already appear in the appropriate metadata list
    for the journal. Many thanks to Steve Whitehouse for the ideas and
    principles behind these patches.

 "We've got eight GFS2 patches for this merge window:

   - Andy Price submitted a patch to make gfs2_write_full_page a static
     function.

   - Dan Carpenter submitted a patch to fix a ERR_PTR thinko.

  Three patches fix bugs related to deleting very large files, which
  cause GFS2 to run out of journal space:

   - The first one prevents GFS2 delete operation from requesting too
     much journal space.

   - The second one fixes a problem whereby GFS2 can hang because it
     wasn't taking journal space demand into its calculations.

   - The third one wakes up IO waiters when a flush is done to restart
     processes stuck waiting for journal space to become available.

  The final three patches are a performance improvement related to
  spin_lock contention between multiple writers:

   - The "tr_touched" variable was switched to a flag to be more atomic
     and eliminate the possibility of some races.

   - Function meta_lo_add was moved inline with its only caller to make
