I'm giving you vfs.iov_iter as a stable (no rebases) branch so you can
put fixes on top. Please let me know if someone else needs to take this.

Applied to the vfs.iov_iter branch of the vfs/vfs.git tree.
Patches in the vfs.iov_iter branch should appear in linux-next soon.

Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a
new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it.

It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the
patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated.

Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase,
trailer updates or similar. If in doubt, please check the listed branch.
