 I'm concerned about the possible size of GENERIC with this code.
 Remember, it has to fit in the install floppy. (Well, not really,
 with loader, but I'm not the one who is getting killed because of a
 three-disks install.)
 
 Also, it adds a sysctl node, isn't that so? Directly under vfs,
 even, so it applies to all filesystems. Ideally, this should apply
 on a per-mount basis, and not even be in a sysctl.
