OK, if you're not planning on pushing David's changes to Linus right away, what if I pull in David's iget-stop-ext4-from-using-iget-and-read_inode-try.patch and push it plus some other ext4 bug fixes directly to Linus, and let you know when that has happened so you can drop David's patch from your queue? David's changes to ext4 can be applied standalone without the rest of his series, so it would be safe to push that to Linus independently and in advance of the rest of his series. That should also help reduce the number of inter-patch queue dependencies.
