This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: erofs: add requirements field in superblock
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: staging: erofs: add requirements field in superblock
There are some backward incompatible features pending
for months, mainly due to on-disk format expensions.
However, we should ensure that it cannot be mounted with
old kernels. Otherwise, it will causes unexpected behaviors.
Fixes: ba2b77a82022 ("staging: erofs: add super block operations")
