Darrick, Christoph, I gave us a separate branch for this. I thought about
putting this on top of vfs.misc but I feel that this would be a bit ugly.
Different layout is possible though.

Applied to the vfs.iomap branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs.iomap branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a
new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it.

It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the
patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated.

Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase,
trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch.
