Compliments for your work on this, I'm favourably impressed by this 
improvements - I would also gather they apply to all externfs, i.e. both to 
new hostfs and humfs?

That would be exceptionally good, however even humfs alone would be already 
good for merging. And an earlier trip in -mm might help if somebody takes a 
look at it (Al Viro did review our fs work in the past so he might decide to 
give a look here too).
