I think so.  If Anna is ok with it, she can drop them from her tree.
And I'm looking at these 7 patches to see which ones make sense on top
of your tree (the v3 patches you just sent).

Mainly my patches were cleanups, plus converting from dfprintk to tracepoints.
Some patches may no longer be needed.
As one example, this may be better done with tracepoints inside
__fscache_use_cookie and __fscache_unuse_cookie
