Add 'blksize' option for block device based filesystems. During
initialization this is used to set the block size on the device and the super
block. The default block size is 512bytes.Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

I never intended this, but people started using fuse to implement block device
based "real" filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs).The following four patches add better support for these kinds of filesystems.
Unlike "normal" fuse filesystems, using this feature should require superuser
privileges (enforced by the fusermount utility).Thanks to Szabolcs Szakacsits for the input and testing.
This patch adds a 'fuseblk' filesystem type, which is only different from the
'fuse' filesystem type in how the 'dev_name' mount argument is interpreted.Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

Change Documentation/filesystems/udf.txt from saying that read/write mounts
on cd media are not supported to instead state the current level of
support. Specifically that it works fine on dvd+rw media and can be made
to work on cd-rw media via the pktcdvd device.Cc: Peter Osterlund

Adds a new /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog call that will enable/disable the
nmi watchdog.By entering a non-zero value here, a user can enable the nmi watchdog to
monitor the online cpus in the system. By entering a zero value here, a
user can disable the nmi watchdog and free up a performance counter which
could then be utilized by the oprofile subsystem, otherwise oprofile may be
short a counter when in use.Signed-off-by: Don Zickus

Add synchronous request interruption. This is needed for file locking
operations which have to be interruptible. However filesystem may implement

Add a control filesystem to fuse, replacing the attributes currently exported
through sysfs. An empty directory '/sys/fs/fuse/connections' is still created
in sysfs, and mounting the control filesystem here provides backward
compatibility.Advantages of the control filesystem over the previous solution:
- allows the object directory and the attributes to be owned by the
filesystem owner, hence letting unpriviled users abort the
filesystem connection- does not suffer from module unload race

Don't put requests into the background when a fatal interrupt occurs while the
request is in userspace. This removes a major wart from the implementation.Backgrounding of requests was introduced to allow breaking of deadlocks.
However now the same can be achieved by aborting the filesystem through the
'abort' sysfs attribute.This is a change in the interface, but should not cause problems, since these
kinds of deadlocks never happen during normal operation.Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi
