Back now (and almost dug myself from under the huge mail pile - only ~1500
left to deal with, out of more than 30000 ;-/)
In addition to this fix there is "vfs: fix check for fallocate on active
swapfile". There might be more in the pending pile, but so far that's
the only obvious missing bugfix.
Really big thanks for taking care of that mess while I'd been MIA (spent a lot
of time sick; I _hate_ the summer in NC, and this one had been particulary
lousy). I'm trying to put together a queue for 3.17 right now; your
vfs-for-3.17 branch looks like a sane starting point. Sigh...
Do you have anything else for 3.16 at the moment? I've pushed these two
into vfs.git#for-linus; right now the stuff in there is
