Hello, Adam!

The patch was picked up by Andrew Morton and will be soon merged into the Linus's tree.
Currently you can find it in the "next" tree (can't provide a hash because it's not stable
there).

Please, note that there it another fix called "writeback, cgroup: do not reparent dax inodes",
which you likely want to backport too.

Both fixes got some testing and reviews.

Thanks!
