[...] The patch in my prevous message (Mon, 24 Jan 2005 00:32:16 +0100) still makes sense, if only for cleanliness: Without it, the i_extra_isize field of reserved inodes is zeroed even though we're not allowing in-inode attributes there. It's probably better to leave the garbage in these inodes untouched; we could in theory disable in-inode attributes for arbitrary inodes with this change.
