I think it's insane to set file limits for root during boot, the only problem I know of were because of the old userspace that doesn't handle correctly the new ulimited defines ~0UL instead of ~0UL>>1. We can provide total backwards compatibility with a simple IS_BLK check in generic_file_* in filemap.c, but I'm not sure if it really worth to add a branch there just for this.

After I applied the ext3 patches from http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ . Basically,
