That's my backlog catching up on me. The cause of that went out for
review earlier today :/
The first two patches have been in my quilt series for quite some
time; one of them hit the xfs-dev tree earlier this afternoon. I was
just looking at the shrinker one a little before these came in -
something told me I better hurry up.
The zero_user_page() patch - I didn't realise I needed to pick that
up; I saw the patches go past and saw that you'd picked them all up
and thought they'd all be sent in one batch and there was nothing I
needed to do. My mistake. I'll pick those up in future. How are
merges to Linus normally handled in that case? The core
infrastructure goes first then all the other trees get merged in?
I'll push these (and the other fixes I just checked in) to the XFS
git tree next week so you can pull them from there. We've neglected
that tree since Nathan left - we're still picking up all the balls
he was juggling....

We do post commit messages to the xfs list - is there somewhere else
you'd like them sent? Or would updating the git tree as we commit patches
to the master tree be sufficient?
Cheers,
Dave.
