Hi Jan,
What do you think of the backport I shared here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ext4/20221122174807.GA9658@linuxonhyperv3.guj3...
Or do you think it makes more sense to backport some of the other patches listed above?
The backport looks good. Please submit it to stable@vger.kernel.org (mentioning upstream commit ID), CC me, I'll ack it and the patch can get merged to stable kernels. Thanks!
