All the relevant revisions appear to be included. There should be no problems with switching back and forth between different kernels or userlands; the kernel chooses defaults for the new superblock parameters if necessary, and the old utilities (fsck, newfs) ignore the new fields. I'm running with this patch now, so I'll let you know if any problems crop up. One thing I did notice was that the tunefs code has diverged significantly from -current. Specifically, revisions 1.13 and 1.14 were not MFC'd. I haven't examined at these changes closely to see if they are applicable to -stable, but it would be nice if they could be MFC'd now to avoid further divergence.
