The kbuild-bot only complained after the code was already merged. Here is the
bug report:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/38752402-3a41-45f0-97ba-4f208d17337b@stanley.mountain/
I don't know if ntfs3 git tree rebases, but generally the advice we would give
would be to assume it isn't and write a Fixes commit which can be applied on
top instead of a v2. If it's a rebase tree, the maintainer will know how to
fold the two patches together.
Thanks for following up on this.
