Hi Song

Please ignore the v2 version. There is a place that needs to be fix.
I'll re-send
v2 version again.

What did you change in the new v2? Removing "extern" in the header?
For small changes like this, I can just update it while applying the patches.
If we do need resend (for bigger changes), it's better to call it v3.

Yes, it only removes "extern" in patch1.

I was testing the first v2 in the past hour or so, it looks good in the test.
I will take a closer look tomorrow. On the other hand, we are getting close
to the 5.12 merge window, so it is a little too late for bigger
changes like this.
Therefore, I would prefer to wait until 5.13. If you need it in 5.12 for some
reason, please let me know.

Is md-next a branch that is used before merging? If so, could you merge
the patches
to md-next if your test pass? There is a bug that needs to be fixed in
rhel. We can
backport the patches if you merge the patches to md-next.

Yes, I can apply them to md-next. But I rebase it from time to time, so the
hash tag will change.

Thanks,
Song
