Yep. So I did it slighly differently. I pulled in the btrfs prereqs and
then applied your series on top of it so we get all the Link: tags right.
I'm running tests right now. Please double-check.

Applied to the vfs.super branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs.super branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a
new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it.

It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the
patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated.

Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase,
trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch.
