I've done the work to convert all of the accesses of i_ctime into
accessor functions in the kernel. The current state of it is here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git/commit/?h=ctime
As expected, it touches a lot of code, all over the place. So far I have
most of the conversion in one giant patch, and I need to split it up
(probably per-subsystem).
What's the best way to feed this change into mainline? Should I try to
get subsystem maintainers to pick these up, or are we better off feeding
this in via a separate branch?
For reference, the diffstat for the big conversion patch is below:
