XArray -next inclusion request

XArray -next inclusion request

[Matthew Wilcox]

Hi Stephen,

Please add

git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax.git xarray

to linux-next.  It is based on -rc1.  You will find some conflicts
against Dan's current patches to DAX; these are all resolved correctly
in the xarray-20180615 branch which is based on next-20180615.

In a masterstroke of timing, I'm going to be on a plane to Tokyo on
Monday.  If this causes any problems, please just ignore the request
for now and we'll resolve it when I'm available to fix problems.

Added from tomorrow.

No worries, I will check your other branch and if things are still to
difficult, you will get an email and I will just drop it for a few days.

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgement of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window. 

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
     * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
        Signed-off-by,
     * posted to the relevant mailing list,
     * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
     * successfully unit tested, and 
     * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Thanks!  I have some additional patches for the IDA that I'd like to
send to Linus as a separate pull request.  Unfortunately, they conflict with
the XArray patches, so I've done them as a separate branch in the same tree:

git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax.git ida

Would you prefer to add them as a separate branch to linux-next (to be
pulled after xarray), or would you prefer to replace the xarray pull
with the ida pull?  Either way, you'll get the same commits as the ida
branch is based off the xarray branch.

I have added that as a new tree from today.
