First off, linux-2.1.106ac4 (seems to) work fine here. i586 UP,
egcs-19980608, binutils-2.9.1.0.6

OTOH, in the above mentioned part of the patch I see that the following
line is being added to truncate.c:

static u32 le32_zero = cpu_to_le32(0);

I don't see any possible changes in the representation of 0 when going from
big to little endian ;) Anyway, this kind of stuff should be #defined as a
constant, if really needed.

There are also several printk()'s that don't have a <LEVEL>, and the
indentation of those is weird. Just debugging scaffolding?
