The following patches which entered 2.6.28 kernel are still needed in 2.6.29:

1915_ext4-automatically-allocate-delay-allocated-blocks-on-rename.patch
1916_ext4-automatically-allocate-delay-allocated-blocks-on-close.patch
linux-2.6.28-ext4-EXT4_IOC_ALLOC_DA_BLKS-ioctl.patch

As Theodore Ts told at ubuntu bug report these patches will enter 2.6.30.

Thank you in advance for you work.

Alright, they are now in the 2.6.29 genpatches trunk :)

Fixed in gentoo-sources-2.6.29-r1.

Re-opening simply for consistency sake because 1918_ext4-fix-discard-of-inode-prealloc-space-with-delayed-allocation.patch was not re-added with the others.  Though obviously less important than the other three, it was in 2.6.28 and still applies to 2.6.29 so no reason to drop it.
