Subject: Re: [PATCH 01/11] ext4: add handling for extended mount options

Unless I missed it, this patch series needs a 00/11 email that describes
*what* "fast commit" is, and why we want it.  This should include some
benchmark results, since (I'd assume) that the "fast" part of the feature
name implies a performance improvement?

Cheers, Andreas
