Yup.

And it feels so right that I think we should just do it for 3.0.

I was planning on doing that today, but I guess can delay it too. I'm
at the Intel tech days tomorrow and the day after, but there's WiFi
there and I'll have my laptop. The slightly bigger problem is that it
will move the next merge window even further into my upcoming
vacation, but I was planning on having the laptop with me there too,
so whatever...

I assume I'll get the cifs_get_root() fix at the same time.
