[PATCH] udf: fix uid/gid options and add uid/gid=ignore and forget options
As Pekka Enberg pointed out, with the if still following the else, you can still get a null uid written to the disk if you specify a default uid= without uid=forget. In other words, if the desktop user is uid=1000 and the mount option uid=1000 is given ( which is done on ubuntu automatically and probably other distributions that use hal ), then if any other user besides uid 1000 owns a file then a 0 will be written to the media as the owning uid instead.

+The uid= and gid= options need a bit more explaining. They will accept a
+decimal numeric value which will be used as the default ID for that mount.
+They will also accept the string "ignore" and "forget". For files on the disk
+that are owned by nobody ( -1 ), they will instead look as if they are owned
+by the default ID. The ignore option causes the default ID to override all
+IDs on the disk, not just -1. The forget option causes all IDs to be written
+to disk as -1, so when the media is later remounted, they will appear to be
+owned by whatever default ID it is mounted with at that time.
+
+For typical desktop use of removable media, you should set the ID to that
+of the interactively logged on user, and also specify both the forget and
+ignore options. This way the interactive user will always see the files
+on the disk as belonging to him.
+
The remaining are for debugging and disaster recovery:
