This line causes a compile error. So the fix would be like that:
Oops.. I made a stupid mistake when creating the patch at dawn..
Thanks for your pointing.

Yes, Right.

Apart from that, the whole patchset seems to work without error,
both on xfs and on ext4.
Of course I had to remove Lukas' patches before testing collapse-range.
So it would be excellent if two patch series could get somehow merged.

Tested-by: Dongsu Park <redacted>
Thank you so much for your testing!
Regards,
Dongsu
