There is one large NFS affecting patch left: namely the one that makes NFS use FS-Cache. I presume that requires Trond's agreement to merge.

Hmmm... Jens wanted my block patches against his tree; you wanted my NFS patches against Trond's NFS tree. I guess I should try stacking the whole lot, but against what? And who carries the fixes? A patch to fix this problem may well only apply to a tree that's the conjunction of both:-/
