Subject: [PATCH] 2.4.20-pre5 BeFS updates

Hi,

I have only been working on the BeFS filesystem occasionally for the
past couple of months. But now that it is going into 2.4.20, I figure it
would be a good time to post an update of what I have done.

This patch agains 2.4.20-pre5:

* Adds Configure.help entries for BeFS (present in the -ac kernels, but
apparently dropped in the merge with mainline)

* Updates the project URL in MAINTAINERS

* Fixes a bug that prevents BeFS from working on little-endian systems
(credits to Sergey S. Kostyliov <[email protected]> )

* Splits up a nasty monolithic header (befs_fs.h) into peices

* Changes all instances of __u16 and friends to corresponding u16
equivalents

* Removes some #defines that were only there so that the driver would
work in older kernels (compatibility.h
