Are you talking about holding back kernelspace or userspace patches?

We'd want to get kernelspace merged in the xfs git tree well before
the merge window, and I don't think the kernel merge window needs to
affect userspace merges.

Can you talk in more specifics (which series/patches, for what codebase)
you're proposing?

In general I think we simply have a review bottleneck, but once patchsets
are reviewed, in general, they should just get merged, especially in userspace,
IMHO.

But maybe I just need more details.  :)
