Hi Chao,

I think this tree has some PREVIEW patches which preview in linux-erofs mailing list only and
doesn't send to staging mailing list and LKML,

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chao/linux.git/log/?h=erofs

so erofs tree is actually Greg's staging tree.

Hi Thomas,
nope, the erofs tree is actually the same as staging tree, so any patch should be based
on Greg's upstream tree.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
