Matias,
Can you pick this up for 4.20? Even though it is not an error per se, it
does trigger an ugly false positive warning when CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL is
set.
Thanks,
Javier

It is too late to get it for 4.20. I'll pull it in for 4.21.

Well, if it is a fix it’s not too late AFAIK. It also applies to a patch picked up in this series. We should have catches this before.

But I guess it’s your call.

There is a likelihood that Linus would catch it, with the result of fire & fury. I don't feel like using one of my cat life's for this one.



We can put on a Fixes: 1864de94ec9d6 "lightnvm: pblk: stop recreating global caches" if you want Greg and friends to pick picked it up for stable kernels?

I didn’t add it as it is not a bug in itself. But it is good to add it. Can you do it.


I'll do it.

Javier.
