Dmitri Vorobiev f433dc5634 Fixes to the BFS filesystem driver
I found a few bugs in the BFS driver.  Detailed description of the bugs as
well as the steps to reproduce the errors are given in the kernel bugzilla.
 Please follow these links for more information:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9363

This patch fixes the bugs described above.  Besides, the patch introduces
coding style changes to make the BFS driver conform to the requirements
specified for Linux kernel code.  Finally, I made a few cosmetic changes
such as removal of trivial debug output.

Also, the patch removes the fields `si_lf_ioff' and `si_lf_sblk' of the
in-core superblock structure.  These fields are initialized but never
actually used.

If you are wondering why I need BFS, here is the answer: I am using this
driver in the context of Linux kernel classes I am teaching in the Moscow
State University and in the International Institute of Information
Technology in Pune, India.
