This flag is suggested by Martin Petersen, while the first version of the patchset was based on a separate operation. Since I see only Jens in MAINTAINERS: BLOCK LAYER M: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx> L: linux-block@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-block.git S: Maintained F: block/ F: drivers/block/ F: kernel/trace/blktrace.c F: lib/sbitmap.c I expect his comments about final design of this, because both you and Martin are maintainers of another subsystems. I don't want rework this many times until Jens says he wants some third design. I think I'm pretty polite and patient in my waiting, while Jens completely ignores me by some reasons, which are completely unclear for me. I don't think this is completely polite in relation to me.
