Subject: [patch set 4.19.6] BFS updates

Hi Linus,

I attached two incremental patches for BFS:

1. Make inode bitmap allocation static (applies on top of 4.19.6)
2. Strengthen the superblock sanity checking code (applies on top of 1. above)

Kind regards,
Tigran

just wanted to add: although the subject says "4.19.6" the patches
apply perfectly to the top of "torvalds/linux" tree from github.

Re-sending the patches with the "Cc: [email protected]" included
in the sign-off area, as per Option 1 of the rules Greg referred me
to. I hope that now I have done everything by the rules.

As you want to replace an existing patch in linux-next that is in
Andrew's trees, you need to cc: him :)

Also, you need to send each patch as an individual email, like
Documentation/SubmittingPatches says to do.

This shouldn't be any different from submitting any other patch.

thanks,
