Subject: [patch 27/36] jbd2: Add BH_JBDPrivateStart


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Mark Fasheh <[email protected]>

(cherry picked from commit e97fcd95a4778a8caf1980c6c72fdf68185a0838)

Add this so that file systems using JBD2 can safely allocate unused b_state
bits.

In this case, we add it so that Ocfs2 can define a single bit for tracking
the validation state of a buffer.
