My first thought was that this is a conflict with SGI's XFS (I had thought
it made it into the 2.4.x series).  That's not it, but it brings up the
question: is there going to be any effort to use arla and SGI XFS
together, and will arla stop working if SGI XFS makes it into the kernel
at some point?  And as another question, why was xfs chosen as the
filesystem name for arla instead of afs or even arlafs?  (Trademark,
possibly of afs?)
