hwclock: add --systz option to set system clock from itself
Since the system clock time is already set from the hardware clock by the
kernel (when compiled with CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS), there's no particular need to
read the hardware clock again.
This option sets the system clock using itself as a reference if the
hardware clock was in local time. The resulting system clock time
is in UTC, with the kernel timezone set to the difference.

Starting in 2.6.29, ext4 can be used to support filesystems without a

than 2.6.29, and ext4 is present, return a filesystme type of ext4.

blkid: start to use ABI versioning
The library ABI and API is backwardly compatible, so it does not
make sense to change the library SONAME. This patch adds a symbol
versioning, naming paradigm is:
BLKID_<maj>.<min>
The original libblkid from e2fsprogs uses "1.0" as a .so version and
"libblkid.1" as a SONAME for all time (at least according to stuff in
/lib/libblkid*)
And the original library is without symbols versioning. It means that
many private functions are exported to applications ;-(
Note that the original blkid_get_library_version() returns
E2FSPROGS_VERSION. The version in util-linux-ng returns BLKID_VERSION
which is <maj>.<min>.<rel>. The <maj>.<min> is the same version as we
use for ABI. This concept seems less confusing than mix a library
version and package version.
Summary:
OLD (e2fsprogs):
ABI versioning: -none-
SONAME: libblkid.1
.so version: libblkid.so.1.0
blkid_get_library_version(): @E2FSPROGS_VERSION@ (e.g. 1.41.1)
NEW (util-linux-ng):
ABI versioning: BLKID_<maj>.<min>
SONAME: libblkid.1
.so version: libblkid.so.<maj.<min> (e.g. 1.41)
blkid_get_library_version(): @BLKID_VERSION@ (e.g. 1.41.1)
