MPSAFE VFS -- List of upcoming actions

As already published several times, according to the following plan:
http://wiki.freebsd.org/NONMPSAFE_DEORBIT_VFS

in 2 months the code dealing with non-MPSAFE filesystem will be
removed and filesystems not yet MPSAFE will be disconnected from the
tree. Their code will be however available in our official repository
yet for 6 months. This leaves a total time of 8 months to do actions.

Current list of unmantained filesystems is: HPFS, NWFS, PortalFS and
XFS. Coda and SMBFS have current mantainership but the status of the
work has still to be determined. NTFS, is being worked for the Summer
of Code program. Finally, ReiserFS was successfully locked during this
campaign.

It is time for community members to step up and offer time and skills
to lock a filesystem or test the effort of other developers willing to
do so.

Thanks,
Attilio
