Added to 4.19 for-next.
I noticed this isn't part of linux-next (yet). Did it get dropped?

Hi Arnd,
It is here, https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/colyli/bcache-patches.git/tr...
Ok, thanks for the confirmation!
It is for Linux v4.19, the merge window is not available yet, and I don't post them to Jens yet.
That sounds like an odd way to handle your patches. Normally all patches should be part of linux-next *before* the merge window so they get tested as part of the linux-next kernel before the pull request to Linus is sent.
It's not important for me for this particular patch, but generally speaking, the Documentation/process/2.Process.rst states:
"all patches merged during a given merge window should really have found their way into linux-next some time before the merge window opens."
