This patch is fine. No need to resend.

But for future reference, I found the commit message a bit confusing.
Ideally, I would understand basically what the commit does and why
without needing to read the diff.
I mostly just read the subject or the commit message, either or, instead
of reading both. (This is not really true.) My email client looks like
this. (Also not true).
https://marc.info/?l=linux-driver-devel&m=154762932712086&w=2
While none of that was strictly true, it is a little bit true-ish...
So please, assume that some people will start reading the commit message
without reading the subject.
I sort of thought from reading the commit message that it was a bugfix
or a behavior change. A better commit message would be:
staging: erofs: move shrink accounting inside the function
This patch moves the &erofs_global_shrink_cnt accounting from the caller
to erofs_workgroup_get(). It's cleaner and it matches erofs_workgroup_put()
better. No behavior change.
