I'm sorry, but I have no clue what this means.
@Tobias: Do you know how to "just continue your stuff"?

"You can then integrate this stuff" --
  who is "you",
  what does "integrate" mean here (usually it's: 'push a patch,
  work on your reviewer's comments, eventually submit the patch'),
  and what precisely is "this stuff"?

That is not helpful.
I don't see how this line of argument brings us any closer to finding
a way to clean up the filesystem "stuff".
(For what's it worth: I do not review patches that do not pass the CI,
 unless I have a good reason to do so, e.g. being directly asked by
 the patch author.)
After all: This is a communication issue between you and Tobias.

I was referring to this quote of yours:

As frustration is counterproductive, I wanted to know what's going here.

True.
But it's a completely different type of frustration to throw away one's
own work compared to waking up and seeing one's work being invalidated or
at least being put into a position where the next steps are less than clear
-- and that's how I understood Tobias's position
("this patch has somewhat put me in an awkward position").

He explained his concerns, you caused this situation and so far,
you did very little to address his concerns.
(@Tobias: Stop me if I'm wrong on this one.)

So, to move forward:
Please share your thoughts on how the filesystem should be reworked.
Not only in terms of the desired outcome product-wise, but also
regarding the process how to get there:
Which parts (existing classes/packages, patches-under-review, ...) are
to be worked on by whom and in which order?

We need a common understanding of this -- to the very least, you and
Tobias.

Franz
