I don't have any major updates to any of those patches; go ahead.

FWIW I usually have unposted patches at all points in time, so if you want to
fix minor nits in things I've already posted for review and commit them to
upstream, that's fine.  I pull down the latest xfstest git and rebase prior to
sending a new patch series, so I'll absorb whatever you change. :)

When I'm getting ready to do another big release, I inquire with the
maintainers if they're about to push commits upstream to avoid the race
post patches -> upstream push -> rebase patches -> repost patches.

09/20 (remove rmapx cruft) should be pretty straightforward, since I withdrew
'rmapx' and related changes from xfs.

10/20 (new log items) will probably remain outstanding for a while since
those changes haven't really made it upstream yet.

Oh, ok.

I think I have fixes for some of those that will go out during the next
patchbomb.  But thanks for the heads up, I'll have a look at a -g auto
run before I submit again.
