Hello,
This series contains patches to support incompat feature flags that were
recently added to the XFS filesystem. This is needed because GRUB checks
if the super block .sb_features_incompat field contains incompat feature
flags that are not supported, and if that's the case it considers the SB
invalid and fails to read any data.
Since having a XFS filesystem with the bigtime or needsrepair flag would
lead to GRUB failing to access it, and due the fact that some distros are
going to turn them on by default (i.e: in the mkfs.xfs tool) I think that
these are 2.06 material.
This series is v2 of a collection of patches posted before separately to
the mailing list. It addresses the issues pointed out by Daniel on v1.
Best regards,
Javier
