This is a very clever way of categorizing files by their name, but I wonder if 
hardcoding
the list of file name extensions at in the kernel source is the best strategy. 
Generally
I would consider this to be a policy that should be configurable by the user.

Unfortunately I can't think of a good interface to configure this, but maybe 
someone
else has a useful idea. Maybe the list can be stored in the superblock and get 
written
at mkfs time from the same defaults, but with the option of overriding it using
a debugfs tool.
