Do you plan to push them during the coming one? Yes, I do. I can merge that branch into viro/vfs.git#for-next, but that would be redundant - note that vfs/vfs.git#workd.fdtable is identical to it (same sha1 of head) and vfs/vfs.git#vfs.file contains a merge from it and vfs/vfs.git#vfs.all merges #vfs.file. So it's already in linux-next in the current form and until something else gets added to the branch I see no point.
