I have a set of 59 patches for the nest round of LSM stacking.
They are all really small. Kees has expressed a preference for
small patches. I think that the collapsed set of about 10 would
make more sense. Which would the community as a whole prefer?
The patches are not much different from what has been presented
already.

I agree with Kees, smaller patches are easier to review.

Is there an option for "not posted on the Friday before a holiday weekend"? ;)
I honestly don't care too much about patch size, regardless of how it
is packaged it's a lot of pretty critical stuff to review.

I'm waiting for James' next-general to base it on, so you needn't worry.

Consensus looks like small patches are the way to go. So be it.

I won't be merging with Linus' tree unless there's a specific reason to,
so go ahead with the current branch.
