Andrew, I want to clarify who is going to push the fallocate patches.
I can either push them to Linus as part of the ext4 patch set, or we
can wait for you to push them.  I thought since you had them in -mm
and we were going to wait you to push them (and presume that this was
going to happen soon).

Alternatively I can push them directly to Linus along with other ext4
patches.  We can drop the s390 patch if Martin or Heiko wants to wire
it up themselves.

As far as I know there hasn't been any real contention on the actual
syscall patches, other than the numbering issues, so it seems that
pushing them to Linus sooner rather than later is the right thing to
do. 

I don't particularly care who pushes them, just as long as they get
pushed.  :-)  

So if you've dropped, shall I push them to Linus as part of the ext4
patches we've been planning on pushing?
