None of the changes in those two patches actually affect userspace.
These first is a log recovery fix, and the second was to silence a
warning in kernel IO submission which doesn't exist in userspace.

So apart from syncing up the code, AFAICT there isn't a compelling
reason to pull them back into 4.5.

Cheers,

Dave.
