Subject: new 2.3.99pre3 reiserfs patch available


Hello everyone,

ReiserFS 3.6.3 is available for kernel 2.3.99-pre3.  This is still beta
code, and can be found at:

ftp://ftp.devlinux.com/pub/namesys/2.3-beta/linux-2.3.99-pre3-reiserfs-3.6.3-patch.gz

We use kmalloc much less now, and have fixed some low-memory deadlocks.
The journal does not use the scheduler queue at all anymore, so we should
not have any TLB problems, or deadlocks against lock_super().

We've also started the code cleanup.  Vladimir put our symlink code into
the page cache, and we've ripped out a lot of code obsolete/uneeded code. 

This fixes all the bugs reported to us except the BUG() in reiserfs_fs.h.
We've been unable to reproduce that at all, and are still working on it.
