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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.
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")
