Subject:  [RFC][PATCH 00/36] Add checkpoint file operations

Message-ID:  <63ff4e88102e10e86bffefd5e4445ab433ed51c0.1241462097.git.matthltc@us.ibm.com>

Enable checkpoint of files and directories on various filesystems. These
are the easy ones where we know we have seekable files which can be
checkpointed via tools like rsync. For filesystems in this series the "magic"
lies in appropriately remounting things like ramfs and hostfs after tools
like rsync have been employed to save the filesystem contents. 

Applies to v14. Rebased cleanly to v15 locally, so I'm hopeful the series
will apply cleanly there too. This is an [RFC] so I haven't Cc'd all relevant
parties. However I have added Cc tags for them below my Signed-off-by in
anticipation of later submissions.

Cheers,
	-Matt Helsley
