Thanks. Does it mean that the patch is ok? Do I need to rework
something?

I see. Probably it is not "quoted-printable" as

	Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
	Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

suggests and it is maybe due to UTF-8 characters (I used "·" several
times in patch description). Anyway if it helps you can pull the patch
from here

	https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/linux.git	y/fuse-retrieve-cap-max_write
	
and then cherry-pick it (git cherry-pick fd482f96537a) to where needed.

Thanks again for feedback,

Kirill
