[RFC PATCH 2/2] xfs: Make XFS use the new file system init infrastructure

From: Tom Spink
Date: Sun May 25 2008 - 14:04:09 EST


This patch makes XFS use the file system type specific init and exit
callbacks, so that XFS only initialises when it's used for the first
time.

This is useful for when XFS is compiled into the kernel, but never
actually used as it stops XFS from creating global threads, until
they are needed.
