Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the vfs-brauner tree got a conflict in:
fs/ext4/super.c
between commit:
e89c6fc9b191 ("ext4: cleanup ext4_get_dev_journal() and ext4_get_journal()")
from the ext4 tree and commits:
1489dffd51d7 ("ext4: close the external journal device in ->kill_sb")
6f5fc7de9885 ("ext4: drop s_umount over opening the log device")
from the vfs-brauner tree.
I fixed it up (I think - see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.

Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the vfs-brauner tree got a conflict in:
fs/ext4/file.c
between commit:
a0c7cce824a5 ("ext4: set FMODE_CAN_ODIRECT instead of a dummy direct_IO method")
from the ext4 tree and commit:
210a03c9d51a ("fs: claw back a few FMODE_* bits")
from the vfs-brauner tree.
I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating

Ted, if you still can maybe just drop the ext4 patch for now? I can
redo it for next merge window with the moved flag.

If the resolution I did is fine, I am sure Linus will cope (but worth
mentioning it to him in the pull request). Its a simple enough conflict.

I agree... but at the same time, the patch in question is a cleanup
and there's not a lot of downside in dropping this for a cycle.
Cristoph, is that right? Will not taking this cleanup block anything
that you were hoping to land this cycle?
I'm fine either way with either asking Linus to fix up the merge, or
dropping it and picking it up later. In fact, I'd be fine just simply
landing this post -rc1.
So what do people think? Again, I don't have strong opinions one way
or another.

This is now a conflict between the ext4 tree and Linus' tree.

Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the vfs-brauner tree got conflicts in:
fs/ext4/inline.c
fs/ext4/inode.c
between commits:
a256c25ef1b1 ("ext4: hoist ext4_block_write_begin and replace the __block_write_begin")
64f2355d7f8a ("ext4: fix a potential assertion failure due to improperly dirtied buffer")
from the ext4 tree and commit:
9f04609f74ec ("buffer: Convert __block_write_begin() to take a folio")
from the vfs-brauner tree.
I fixed it up (I used the former) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

This is now a conflict between the ext4 tree and Linus' tree.

Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the vfs-brauner tree got a conflict in:
fs/ext4/fsync.c
between commit:
3a0fb9e5017077 ("ext4: fix fsync(2) for nojournal mode")
from the ext4 tree and commit:
41189b49bcf1c2 ("ext4: Track metadata bhs in fs-private inode part")
from the vfs-brauner tree.
I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
