FWIW, that patch needs a few updates, so I will be sending out an
updated version (ETA within next week is the plan), but I do agree
that Ack: would be good since there were some strong philosophical
objections in the beginning & it might make sense to let the wider
community know those are being addressed

Thanks,

In the course of review, some concerns were surfaced about the
original virtio-blk lifetime proposal, as it depends on the eMMC
spec which is not open

Add a more detailed description of the meaning of the fields
added by that proposal to the virtio-blk specification, as to
make it feasible to understand and implement the new lifetime
metrics feature without needing to refer to JEDEC's specification

This patch does not change the meaning of those fields nor add
any new fields, but it is intended to provide an open and more
clear description of the meaning associated with those fields.

Still not a fan of the encoding, but at least it is properly documented
now:

Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

With that, would you like to ack the virtip-blk patch too?
The format didn't actually change ...
