You can pick these up, I don't have plans for more patches right now (unless we hit some new bugs that affect our workloads).
(FWIW there do lurk dragons there, at least 1) setxattr() with zero- length value turns into a removexattr(), and 2) creat("foo", 0444) fails due to the R/O perms when opening the writeback_fid. Fixes to either didn't seem too easy...)
Thanks!
