This is to make the persistent ring buffer more robust when sub-buffers are detected to be corrupted. Instead of invalidating the entire buffer, just invalidate the individual sub-buffers. I started with Masami's patches and modified some from Sashiko reviews. I added a few patches to display the dropped events when the persistent ring buffers validation checks found sub-buffers were dropped due to being corrupted data.It seems that Sashiko still marks it "Incompleted". Maybe we need base-commit: tag in this cover mail? I also guess that this series does not use "In-Reply-To:" but only uses "References:" tag in the mail header. I guess Sashiko's mail header parser missed it.
But this applies to mainline. I'm not sure why it's having problems. -- Steve
