The quilt patch titled

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm


Andrew,

this series was moved to mm-stable a bit too fast for my taste.

It was nearly three weeks.

I'm sorry, I replied to the wrong mail. I thought this was:

[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240501042700.83974-1-ioworker0@xxxxxxxxx

Because *that* is in mm-stable now as well. The major rewrite in v3 (sent April 29) that had no reviews but broke compilation and was resend in v4 (send May 1), to be moved to mm-stable on May 6.

That's certainly too rushed for my taste for something that is not high provide just before the merge window is about to open.

I have it on my review list, but was expecting this to not get moved to mm-stable at this point. I won't be able to review it this/next week. I see other people are reviewing it now.


Review is still going on, can we still remove that from mm-stable?

I can rebase if needed.  Is there a reason to do so?  Nothing that
can't be fixed up with followup patches?

This here is good to go and saw sufficient review. [1] was too fast for my taste, but it's up to you to decide if we want to fix that up piece by piece as more review happens.
