I don't know if this introductory text is going to be saved anywhere permanent, such as the merge commit (since git now has the ability to have much more informative merge descriptions). But if it is going to be preserved, it might be worth mentioning that if the filesystem uses block_page_mkpage(), it will handled automatically for them since the patch series does push the call to file_update_time(0 into __block_page_mkpage(). - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
