Looks pretty nice to me, thanks. I had a bunch of relatively minor
review questions - mainly stuff which would benefit from some short
comments.

I had to do some mangling due to the intervening
i_mmap_mutex->i_mmap_lock_read/write. I ended up choosing
i_mmap_lock_read() throughout, which needs careful checking please. I
also converted the changelogs. It still compiles!
