Sorry, this come in too late for it be included in the merge window,
since at that time I Was trying to do final regression testing before
sending a pull request to Linus.

I'm also currently on travel (attending Usenix ATC and visiting $WORK
in the Bay Area).  I will start accumulating fixes soon, probably
shortly after 4.13-rc1 comes out.  It *would* be helpful if other ext4
developers could review the patches while on travel (hint, hint).
Otherwise, I'll start reviewing patches in a week or two.

Cheers,
