Hi all,

I really want the configfs change in this series to go into 4.5. Originally
both Pantelis and I had changes ontop that would require it in a stable
non-rebased branch, but one or both of those might not make the cut.

As this has been a problem with a increased configfs actitivly lately I'd
like to volunteer to co-maintain configfs and keep a git tree that can
be used as stable baseline for all involved parties instead of the
patch-only -mm tree or occasional merge through the SCSI target tree.

I've started out with just this patch in my tree:

git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/vfs.git configfs-for-4.5

or gitweb:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/vfs.git/shortlog/refs/heads/configfs-for-4.5

I know Krzysztof also had pending changes and I'd be happy to collect them
as well.
