Patches 9 and 30 didn't hit the lists, but I've bounced the versions I
received.

Patch 2 didn't arrive here or on the list, but appears to be commit
a41cbe86df3a ("Failing to send a CLOSE if file is opened WRONLY and
server reboots on a 4.x mount").

These subjects in the shortlog don't appear in the patch series:

Commit 397d425dc26d ("vfs: Test for and handle paths that are
unreachable from their mnt_root") is missing.
