Re: [EXT4 set 5][PATCH 1/1] expand inode i_extra_isize to support features in larger inode

didn't quite realize that ext3 holds a transaction open during
->direct_IO.

I can test the patch to make sure that it catches mistakes I've made in
the past.  Peter, do you have any interest in seeing how far we can get
at tracking lock_page()?  I'm not holding my breath, but any little bit
would probably help.
