Christian, let's lock this one in. I will post subsequent changes
as delta patches.

Following on from:

Applied to the vfs-7.2.exportfs branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs-7.2.exportfs branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Not vfs-7.2-casefold ?

Fwiw, I was intending to rebase nfsd-next on the vfs integration branch,
which should have both vfs-7.2-casefold and vfs-7.2.exportfs merged in,
along with Jeff's series that implements the infrastructure to support
directory delegation properly. LMK if that's crazy talk.

I think you should just merge:

vfs-7.2.exportfs
vfs-7.2.casefold

as the order doesn't matter and they don't depend on each other. I have
marked both branches as shared so they won't get touched again. If more
ends on either of these branches it doesn't matter to you. IOW, I think
you should just pick the minimum you need and then you don't need to
hear from again and by the time you send your pull request all the
prerequisites will already be in Linus' tree.

If you merge in vfs.all you're subject to problems from rebases. So I'd
not recommend that.
