Oh, bugger... I see what has happened - there's a local queue with a lot
of pending cleanups; this (and several around it) got into the wrong queue
and leaked into #for-next. My apologies; I can certainly take this stuff
out. It is an obvious patch, and the only reason why it's there at all
is that it's a part of preliminary cleanups for sorting the
d_add/d_splice_alias/d_materialise_unique/d_instantiate/d_add_unique
mess out. That almost certainly will be a part of the next cycle, in
the first place, and this particular commit isn't even a prereq - it's just
something that fell out of grep while sorting out the calling conventions
for those guys (what's locked, what is or isn't hashed, etc.)
So I've no problems whatsoever either with ripping it out of -next and moving
it to the local queue until the next cycle, or throwing it your way and waiting
for it to hit the mainline. Both f_fs and gadgetfs commits should go your
way, right? Just tell which way you prefer them handled... Again, I hadn't
planned to push those; there's no reason not to, but they can certainly sit
around for longer. Sorry about the mess...
