(The big changes were actually in 2.5.12, but 2.5.13 contained various
minor fixes and tweaks, and 2.5.14 contains a number of fixes especially
wrt truncate, so hopefully it's fairly _stable_ as of 2.5.14.)
Credit goes to Andrew Morton, and not only does it clean up the code a
lot, it also seems to perform a lot better in many circumstances.
There's a lot of other stuff in the 2.5.x tree too, but few things are so
fundamental. Please test (but also, please be careful - backups are always
a good idea).
