Yeah, I have written some changelog as well :) Something like:

    reiserfs: get rid of AOP_FLAG_CONT_EXPAND flag
    
    Remove usage of AOP_FLAG_CONT_EXPAND flag. Reiserfs is the only user of
    it and it is easy to avoid.

OK, I'll keep it in my tree then and push it to Linus for the merge window.
