Hi Jens,

It looks like there are still people interested (excited, even!) in the 
sysfs entries for ioprio cache hinting in bcache.  

If I rebase on for-4.12 or for-next on git.kernel.dk, would you pull it in?

There are a handful of stable patches on the bcache list that I would roll 
up in the same pull.  Please let me know what you would prefer and what I 
can do to make it easy for you.

Thank you for your help!
