Note: the "00_read_super-stale-inode-1" fix is under discussion with Al,but overall it should be just ok for public consumation (even if thatare may change if we find any better alternative, at the moment I thinkit is better (cleaner, simpler and faster) alternative than the iput changes in function of the MS_ACTIVE info).

Only in 2.4.15aa1: 00_iput-unmount-corruption-fix-1

Fix iput umount corruption.

Only in 2.4.15aa1: 00_read_super-stale-inode-1



If read_super fails avoid lefting stale inodes queued into the superblock.

Only in 2.4.15pre9aa1: 10_vm-16

Only in 2.4.15aa1: 10_vm-17

Dropped a leftover touch_buffer in bread (there's just one in getblk in-aa, and we need it in getblk [not only for reiserfs]).
