Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx>

But you have more valuable acks on this little series already,
so don't bother rebasing some tree to add mine in now.  I don't yet
see the uuid_to_fsid() 1/2 which this depends on in linux-next, and
fear that's my fault for holding you back: sorry, please go ahead now.
