Sigh...  You are breaking bisectability again.  This helper should
be introduced *first*, along with conversion to it.  Then you can
do the rest on top of that.

I've just pushed such commit into vfs.git#for-linus; please, do the rest
on top of it.  And keep it bisectable, i.e. so that at any intermediate
point the tree would build and work.
