Can you please:
1) Ensure that your postings thread properly, it's all separate emails
and the patches don't nest under the cover letter parent.
2) Include a changelog. What changed since v1?

I use alpine. I was testing it - and it turns out that when I delete the last character in the "Subject" field, it deletes the field "In-Reply-To" from the header. This must be some new bug/feature - it didn't do it in the past. I'll try to be more careful to not make the "Subject" field empty when sending patches. > 2) Include a changelog.

In case of allocation failure, fall back to per-page "call_rcu" calls. (suggested by Christoph Hellwig) * Make the module parameter "/sys/module/brd/parameters/discard" changeable at runtime. Changing it will iterate over all ramdisk devices and call brd_set_discard_limits on them to enable or disable discard. (suggested by Christoph Hellwig) * Use "switch (bio_op(bio))" in brd_submit_bio, so that the code looks better. (suggested by Chaitanya Kulkarni) * do "bio->bi_status = BLK_STS_NOTSUPP" in brd_submit_bio if unknown type of bio is received.
