It looks like these four fields can be replaced by a single one,
making struct inode smaller. Not bad.
The first step would be to delete the field i_dev, and
all assignments to it, and replace all remaining occurrences
by i_sb->s_dev.
Roughly speaking, the only use of this field is in the stat
system call.
Any objections?
