I'm sorry that my "Linux Kernel Mailing List" filtering techniques are lacking and I missed it completely. Searching on google I can see it was hiding under "[GIT PULL] block/writeback bits for 2.6.34-rc". I have only seen it now, in git-commits-head ml. I wish filesystem related patches where CC to linux-fsdevel, and/or posted as individual patches, sigh. I'll post a fix as reply to this mail. Linus please submit.
