Folks,
	Here in Ted's inode-diet patch, he renames inode->u.generic_ip
to inode->i_private.  I note that OCFS2 uses generic_ip only one place,
in debug code:

ocfs2_dlm_debug_open():
	1998         osb = (struct ocfs2_super *) inode->u.generic_ip;

However, we never set it!  This leads me to believe this is stale code.
Thoughts.

Joel
