I've put the maintainership under VFS but let me know if you'd prefer it belong ot the fcntl folks. * Having heterogenous field sizes in an extensible struct results in "padding hole" problems when adding new fields (in addition the correct error to use for non-zero padding isn't entirely clear ). The simplest solution is to just copy clone(3)'s model -- always use u64s. It will waste a little more space in the struct, but it removes a possible future headache.
