Nice, thanks. I agree that this kind of workaround is best possible for
the moment, and I'm glad to see that it's not that much code to get the
seeding devices right. This would also work with older kernels without
the updated sysfs/ioctl interfaces, so this is likely to stay for a long
time.

That's a very generic name for a function that does a very specialized
thing, but I don't have a suggestion right now.

Same here, make fs_info correct but in what way? A comment would be good
as well.
