I think the dependency list is too big. Too much has changed that was never back-ported. Actually the list of patches pertaining to fs/io-wq.c alone isn't so bad, I did start to back-port them all but some of the big ones have fs/io_uring.c changes incorporated and that list is huge (256 patches from v5.10 to the fixing patch mentioned above). -- Lee Jones [李琼斯] Principal Technical Lead - Developer Services Linaro.org │ Open source software for Arm SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog
