So I notice that this is based on linux-next while libnvdimm-for-next is based on v5.15-rc4. Since I'm not Andrew I went ahead and rebased these onto v5.15-rc4, tested that, and then merged with linux-next to resolve the conflicts and tested again. My merge resolution is here [1]. Christoph, please have a look. The rebase and the merge result are both passing my test and I'm now going to review the individual patches. However, while I do that and collect acks from DM and EROFS folks, I want to give Stephen a heads up that this is coming. Primarily I want to see if someone sees a better strategy to merge this, please let me know, but if not I plan to walk Stephen and Linus through the resolution.
