I've seen wider testing coverage in replies to the previous patchset iterations. Can we have that added to fstests? I'm going to add this patchset to the devel queue (ie. not a separate for-next branch anymore). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
