Yes. Its me, who started this again (after talking to Nick at KS) -
trying to make use ecryptfs and cifs gets converted to new aops. Nick
has been on the CCed on all our (private) mails.

BTW, I posted ecryptfs conversion also. Only thing remaining is
afs. Once thats done, we can get rid of prepare/commit write.

Thanks,
Badari
