Why not? We've done more complex changes in the past...

Sure - the first 27 patches at the necessary ones for 3.11.

Sure, but Jeff's work hadn't been reviewed or QA'd by anyone else,
so what's the problem? If the Maintainers had their job that a month
ago when Jeff posted the patches, then this wouldn't be an issue as
my patchset would now be based on top of it.

You're welcome to go review, test and integrate Jeff's patchset
before mine - I'll just have to rebase my patchset.

You're blaming me for the fact the Maintainers haven't reviewed and
integrated Chandra's latest quota patchset that was posted 6 weeks
ago?

Feel free to get Chandra to repost the patchset and review and
integrate it before taking any of my changes. I'll just rebase my
patchset on top of whatever ends up in the XFS tree....

Cheers,

Dave.
