Well, since we'll be adding pointer to address_space there and eventually I need to add a pointer to the buffer_head containing the inode to fix a bug that fsync(2) now doesn't properly persist the inode metadata for all these filesystems (but I didn't want to clutter this series with that fix), I think a special name is warranted.
