OK, I will apply those tomorrow (actually later today :-)) and and stop
disabling CONFIG_EROFS_FS.

It might be easiest for Greg to add the disabling CONFIG_EROFS_FS patch
to the staging tree itself for his first pull request during the merge
window and then send a second pull request (after the vfs and maybe the
Xarray stuff has been merged by Linus) with these patches followed by a
revert of the disabling patch.
