Re: [PATCH] ext4: Fix trimming starting with block 0 with small blocksize

Argh.  In the future, I'd really appreciate if you explicitly label
patches with a version number, so I can more easily keep track of
which one is the latest.

It's also best if you send patches as free-standing separate e-mail
messages (one message per patch, using git format-patch and git
send-email), so they can more easily tracked using patchwork.  Sending
me patches which are included as a quoted reply (as you did here) means
I have to manually pick out the patch, or apply it the patch by hand.

Both of these would make my life much easier; and makes it more likely
I will apply your patches quickly.

Thanks,
