I just wanted to put it out in the wild to see if somebody found it useful as it was pretty trivial to add the support. Also, the first series that tried adding support for LBS in the kernel 17 years ago used ramfs as an example :). The only use case I could come up with was testing the folio order changes in the page cache without having to use a more complicated FS like XFS. In that sense it is still useful to add this feature I guess considering the minimal changes? -- Pankaj
