The iomap stuff I'd definitely send directly to Linus.

For vfs stuff, it depends.  For work in the core vfs I'll probably just
keep sending patches through Al, but for treewide things like ioctl
cleanups I suspect it'll be easier to let them soak in -next and then
send them directly.

I also dropped the f2fs parts of the setflags/fssetxattr patches because
while I think your fix from yesterday's for-next is correct, I prefer to
let Eric Biggers' cleanup land through the f2fs tree before I try to
clean up f2fs again.  There shouldn't be any harm in letting that lag a
little while longer.
