That is also strange, since people would ask why not submiting a patch
upstream, I think you still need to mention the upstream commit

ce529cc25b184e93397b94a8a322128fc0095cbb
("erofs: enable large folios for iomap mode").

also see another commit in linux 6.1 branch:
1ce9ebc96eda ("erofs: ensure that the post-EOF tails are all zeroed").

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
