Thomas,

I confirmed that erofs git repository for linux upstream is Greg's staging tree.

Let me explain, in order to avoid sending buggy or preview patch, Xiang and me
plan to review patches in erofs mailing list first, and then cache reviewed
patches in my git tree before sending them to Greg and staging mailing list.

Based on that, I'm trying to serialize all erofs patches, expecting that can
help those patches sent to staging mailing list can be merged by Greg with
lesser conflict. But I made a mistake that my erofs branch has merged some
pending patches, result in failing to merge yours, that mislead me to ask you to
rebase the code, sorry about that.

Now I can confirm that your v2 patch can apply on Greg's staging-next, so fixing
warning reported by checkpatch.pl on your v2 patch is enough. :)

Thanks,
