Can you fix the whitespace error and make sure it merges (cifsroot.c hasn't changed in over a year so should be easy). I got this error when trying to apply the patch. Applying: cifs: add ipv6 parsing .git/rebase-apply/patch:26: trailing whitespace. { error: fs/cifs/cifsroot.c: does not match index Patch failed at 0001 cifs: add ipv6 parsing On Mon, Dec 5, 2022 at 11:25 PM Elijah Conners <business@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > CIFS currently lacks IPv6 parsing, presenting complications for CIFS > over IPv6. > > To parse both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, the parse_srvaddr() function > was altered; parse_srvaddr() now returns void.
