JFFS in 2.4.0-test6 is almost entirely in sync now with my development tree.
There should be a couple of one-liners in test7-pre1 which fill in the
inode->i_blocks field properly to make du(1) happier, but that's hardly a
showstopper.

It's mostly ready for people to start using it. I was going to update the
handhelds.org repository directly, but I thought it was probably easier in
the long run if I update Linus and let it filter through that way.
