They were on principle against 
ftp://ftp.ru.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.12-rc3/2.6.12-rc3-mm2/broken-out/reiser4-allow-drop_inode-implementation.patch
ftp://ftp.ru.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.10-rc3/2.6.10-rc3-mm1/broken-out/reiser4-perthread-pages.patch
ftp://ftp.ru.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.12-rc3/2.6.12-rc3-mm2/broken-out/reiser4-export-inode_lock.patch

and few older patches.
We are currently trying to eliminate the need in
reiser4-export-inode_lock.patch which is the last of bad patches.

This one seems to be the hardest to get rid of.
