I'm reposting this patch series as v4 since there have been no additional
comments, and I cleaned up one extra bit of unneeded code (in 3/3). The patches
are against Linus's tree: 2bfc96a127
(2.6.36-rc3).
Would this patchset be suitable for inclusion in an mm branch?
This changes adds a partition_meta_info struct which itself contains a
union of structures that provide partition table specific metadata.
This change leaves the union empty. The subsequent patch includes an
implementation for CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION-based metadata.
