Subject[PATCH v3 10/16] docs: filesystems: ext4: blockgroup.rst: replace some characters
Date
The conversion tools used during DocBook/LaTeX/html/Markdown->ReST
conversion and some cut-and-pasted text contain some characters that

Replace the occurences of the following characters:

- U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR
use ASCII asterisk instead of the ASTERISK OPERATOR

The solution to this problem is to use the metablock group feature
(META\_BG), which is already in ext3 for all 2.6 releases. With the
