Applied, Thanks.

For reference to those that are interested there is no longer a
standalone ext3 driver present in the current versions of the Xilinx
kernel (e.g. xilinx-v2016.1+) or mainline kernels. The config is still
technically valid but it merely configures ext4
(https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/blob/master/fs/ext4/Kconfig#L4).

Nathan
