This patchset implements CUSE - Character device in Userspace. Except
for initialization sequence and creation of character device instead
of a mount, CUSE isn't very different from FUSE.
This patchset is consisted of the following five patches.
0001-FUSE-add-fuse_-prefix-to-several-functions.patch
0002-FUSE-export-symbols-to-be-used-by-CUSE.patch
0003-FUSE-separate-out-fuse_conn_init-from-new_conn.patch
0004-FUSE-add-fuse_conn-release.patch
0005-CUSE-implement-CUSE-Character-device-in-Userspace.patch
0001-0004 prepares FUSE for CUSE addition and 0005 implements CUSE.
Corresponding libfuse changes will be posted separately.
This patchset is on top of...
2.6.27-rc4 (b8e6c91c74e9f0279b7c51048779b3d62da60b88)
