It has mysteriously gone away. Perhaps it was triggered by some other
tree which was later fixed.

The algorithm to determine this is to look at the first line of -mm's
git-v9fs.patch:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.26-rc2/2.6.26-rc2-mm1/broken-out/git-v9fs.patch
has:

GIT 38bfbd9f766f0b33de6bc16fd9ad1018b8fd3fe2 git+ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ericvh/v9fs.git#v9fs-devel

Yes, -mm uses both linux-next and git-v9fs (aka #v9fs-devel)

linux-next uses #for-next and afacit that was empty as of a few hours
ago. Nothing for 2.6.27?
