Thanks, Stephen, that looks good.

This reminds that Dave suggested that we chould route the two mm patches
in my series through Andrew's mm tree for 4.20 and get the Btrfs bits in
for 4.21. Would that make things harder for linux-next? If not, I can
resend "mm: split SWP_FILE into SWP_ACTIVATED and SWP_FS" and "mm:
export add_swap_extent()" rebased on mmotm.
