Subject: Re: [PATCH 4.19 033/110] bfs: add sanity check at bfs_fill_super()

Hello,

Yes, of course I object to it. I ignored this version of the patch
being applied to the older Linux versions, but for the latest versions
surely the version that I have authored should be applied instead. I
have sent to Andrew Morton both the 4.20-rc1 and 4.19.2 versions of
the patch. The 4.20 was applied (as "linux-next", I don't know why it
is not in 4.20-rc4 yet), but 4.19.2 version was not applied yet, so
here it is attached again (with the proper changelog etc). It applies
to 4.19.5 cleanly as well, so please use this version (attached).

Kind regards,
Tigran
