The patchset fixes breakage that got into cifs ->mount() since cifs had started to play with shared superblocks - sget() races, leaks, etc. Commit dates are recent due to added Acked-by and Reviewed-by; other than that, it's an exact copy of the stuff that sat in for-next. What is the proper way to deal with such situations, BTW? I know that you seriously dislike being asked to pull just-created commits, but the normal reasons do not apply in this case...
