This patch does not work correctly without '-funsigned-char', and I don't think that has been back-ported to stable kernels.
That said, the patch *almost* works.
So I'm not convinced this should be back-ported at all, but it's certainly true that going back and forth between the two cases would be problematic.
Yeah, I wouldn't backport this patch, since it also requires changes to e2fsprogs that will take a while to propagate to stable distributions.
Ack, I'll drop it. Thanks!
