So it's perhaps obvious by now, but I had delayed this pull request
because I was waiting to see if there were any reports of issues with
the core pipe changes.

And considering that there clearly _is_ something going on with the
pipe changes, I'm not going to pull this for this merge window.

I'm obviously hoping that we'll figure out what the btrfs-test issue
is asap, but even if we do, it's too late to pull stuff on top of our
current situation right now.

I suspect this is what you expected anyway (considering your own query
about the next merge window), but I thought I'd reply to it explicitly
since I had kept this pull request in my "maybe" queue, but with the
pipe thread from this morning it's dropped from that.
