No need to generate virtio_fs.o first and then link to virtiofs.o, just
rename virtio_fs.c to virtiofs.c and remove "virtiofs-y := virtio_fs.o"
in Makefile, also update MAINTAINERS. Additionally, rename the private
header file fuse_i.h to fuse.h, like ext4.h in fs/ext4, xfs.h in fs/xfs
and f2fs.h in fs/f2fs.

There are two separate changes in this patch (virtio_fs.c -> virtiofs.c
and fuse_i.h -> fuse.h). A patch series with two patches would be easier
to review and cleaner to backport.

I'm happy with renaming virtio_fs.c to virtiofs.c:

Hi Stefan and Miklos,

Thanks for your reply, what should I do now?

(1) split this patch into two separate patches to send v3;
(2) just ignore this patch because
"This will make backport of bugfixes harder for no good reason."
said by Miklos.

Thanks,
Tiezhu
