May I send up the following fix on ahead ? As for the rest, the patch looks ok to me. Acked-by: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Thanks, Ryusuke Konishi --- From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> nilfs2: wait for discard to finish nilfs_discard_segment() doesn't wait for completion of discard requests.
