Please either drop this set or only consider patches 1-8 for merge. I
haven't worked out _exactly_ how to move the docs from
Documentation/filesystems/vfs to the source code files but I've played
with it enough now to feel it is possible and it is definitely better.
Just have to massage Sphinx into agreeing with me.

I thought the whole reason we have docstring comments is because we all
agreed that docs close to code hove more chance of staying relevant.
vfs.txt proves that nicely (docs in it from 2.6 for structs that are
actively used and developed).

Sorry for the noise, one day I'll work these things out _before_ sending
the patches :)

thanks,
Tobin.
