Thanks for writing the support. I was already wondering whether someone would submit the patch for inclusion ;). There's no real UDF maintainer. I'm probably closest to the one, trying to fix reported bugs when I have time... Also Marcin Slusarz has done some cleanup work recently (his patches are in -mm kernel and will go into mainline kernel soon - probably into 2.6.25 - I'm afraid you'll have to rediff your patch against his patches). Anyway, for submitting a patch, you can use guidelines in Documentation/SubmittingPatches. Especially, your patch has to have some description and Signed-off-by line. I can then review the patch when you submit it. BTW: I've just quickly browsed through the patch and I don't quite get why have you commented out UDF_SB_SESSION() in udf_read_tagged(). Also even if it really shouldn't be there, then just delete it...
