[Lustre-discuss] Patchless kernel support?

[Bernd Schubert]

Hello Alexey,

no, I didn't forget about that. But ldiskfs is often still rather easy 
compared to the other generic Lustre patches required for new kernels. I also 
have to admit, that I'm not particulary happy about the recent number of ext4-
ldiskfs patches Lustre has. But yes, I can understand the pain to get patches 
upstream. And even while I'm leaving right now and will work on another 
filesystem, I still plan to help to submit MMP upstream.

Cheers,
Bernd
