I don't see any problems with changing struct kstat. There would be
reservations against changing inode.i_ino though.
So filesystems that have 64bit inodes will need a specialized
getattr() method instead of generic_fillattr().
And they are already free to do so. And no, struct kstat doesn't need
to be changed - it has u64 ino already.
I see, I should have checked recent kernel.
