Hi Greg,

As discussed previously can you please take vboxsf upstream through
drivers/staging?

It has seen many revisions on the fsdevel list, but it seems that the
fsdevel people are to busy to pick it up.

Previous versions of this patch have been reviewed by Al Viro, David Howells
and Christoph Hellwig (all in the Cc) and I believe that the current
version addresses all their review remarks.

Regards,

Hans

Please just send it to Linus directly.  This is the equivalent of
consumer hardware enablement and it is in a state as clean as it gets
for the rather messed up protocol.

I can add it to my patches to go to Linus for 5.4-final if you don't
object to it going into drivers/staging/

Ok, I've merged this to my -linus staging tree and will push it to Linus
