I was re-reading the https://lore.kernel.org/git/20180117184828.31816-1-hch@xxxxxx/ thread today and thought we should at least update the docs, and per my earlier E-Mail in https://lore.kernel.org/git/87sgbghdbp.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ perhaps the directory entry should also be synced. I kept linux-fsdevel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in the CC, it was in the original thread, but more importantly it would be really nice to have people who know more about the state of filesystems on Linux and other OS's to give 2/2 a read to see how accurate what I put together is.
