Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the erofs tree got a conflict in:

fs/erofs/xattr.c

between commit:

a5488f29835c ("fs: simplify ->listxattr() implementation")

from the vfs-idmapping tree and commit:

3f43a25918ac ("erofs: handle long xattr name prefixes properly")

from the erofs tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.


Thanks, it looks good to me. Also hopefully Jingbo
could test the merged patch as well.

Thanks,
