Christoph and I discussed this one last week, and he has a plan to try
a flag approach. Christoph, did you get a chance to bang that out? Would
be nice to get this one wrapped up.
I gave up on that as it will be far too much change so late in
the cycle and sent you the revert yesterday.
Gotcha, haven't made it all the way through the emails of the morning yet.
I'll queue it up.
Thx to both of you for taking care of this.

Nitpicking: that patch is missing a "CC: stable@..." tag to ensure
automatic and quick backporting to 5.19.y. Or is the block layer among
the subsystems that prefer to handle such things manually?

Ohh, and a fixes tag might have been good as well; a "Link:" tag
pointing to the report, too. If either would have been there, regzbot
would have noticed Christoph's patch posting and I wouldn't have
bothered you yesterday. :-) But whatever, not that important.
We'll just have to ensure we ping stable on it when it goes in.
If you have a git id that is not going to change, I can watch out for it
to land in Linus's tree...

thanks,
