Hi stable team - please don't take patches for fs/bcachefs/ except from myself; I'll be doing backports and sending pull requests after stuff has been tested by my CI. Thanks, and let me know if there's any other workflow things I should know about
Sure, we can ignore fs/bcachefs/ patches. Note that the proposed workflow would only work through patches coming through your tree, but patches in other subsystems that could affect bcachefs might break it in stable trees without being caught by your CI. I'd recommend integrating your pre-release tests with something like kernelci, which would let us catch bcachefs-affecting issues coming from other sources. What more, if we do the above, we could in the future avoid special casing bcachefs :) -- Thanks, Sasha
