Subject: Re: [syzbot] [netfs?] INFO: task hung in vfs_utimes (3)

Dominique,

according to

	https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250919021852.7157-1-hdanton@sina.com/
	https://lore.kernel.org/all/68ccc372.050a0220.28a605.0016.GAE@google.com/

this is yet another issue seems to be fixed by

	[PATCH] 9p/trans_fd: p9_fd_request: kick rx thread if EPOLLIN
	https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250819161013.GB11345@redhat.com/

are you going to apply it?

Hillf, thanks a lot!

Oleg.
