Christian,

This fixes f6988c90671e, which went into 7.3-rc5, so the regression is
new in this cycle, and f6988c90671e is already tagged for stable. Could
it go into vfs.fixes before 7.3 is released? Tejun has acked it:

b4 shazam 20261017040710.1174009-1-lizf@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Separately, the wb-dying-cgwb-flush series now has Tejun's ack on all
three patches and Jan's Reviewed-by, for whichever cycle suits:

Thanks,
Liz
