And actually, now that I come to think of it, I have a tree from about
a month ago where vfs is pretty much isolated.  I say "pretty much",
since it's fairly deep everywhere in the kernel.  For people familiar
with the networking stack, I think the routing code is an appropriate
analogy to vfs for the rest of the kernel ;)
