Why the resend?
Nothing happens until the merge window closes with the release of -rc1
(almost certainly on this coming Sunday). I goofed and did not act on
this faster, and so it is my fault this did not make it into linux-next
before the merge window. But I am not going to rush this forward.
You also ignored my review and have not even descibed why it is safe
to change the type of a filesystem parameter.
- fsparam_u32("hidepid", Opt_hidepid),
+ fsparam_string("hidepid", Opt_hidepid),
Especially in light of people using fsconfig(fd, FSCONFIG_SET_...);
All I need is someone to point out that fsparam_u32 does not use
FSCONFIG_SET_BINARY, but FSCONFIG_SET_STRING.
My apologies for being grumpy but this feels like you are asking me to
go faster when it is totally inappropriate to do so, while busily
ignoring my feedback.
I think this should happen. But I can't do anything until after -rc1.
