Well, for some definition of stable. Right now it's just a topic
branch that is merged into the for-next branch, so in theory it is
still just a set of pending changes in a branch in a repo that has
been pushed to linux-next for testing.

That said, I don't see that branch changing unless we find bugs in
the code or a problem with the API needs fixing, at which point I
would add more commits to it and rebase the for-next branch that you
are pulling into the linux-next tree.

Realistically, I'm waiting for Lukas to repost his other pending
fallocate changes (the zero range changes) so I can pull the VFS and
XFS bits of that into the XFS tree and I can test them together
before I'll call the xfs-collapse-range stable and ready to be
merged into some other tree...

Cheers,

Dave.
