Hi Fedora kernel-team,

The vboxsf file-system driver for accessing folders shared by a vbox host from 
a (Fedora) guest
has finally been merged upstream in 5.6-rc1.

I've discussed how to move forward with this with Sergio (in the Cc)
who currently maintains a kmod for this in rpmfusion.

Sergio's preference is to switch to the in tree version ASAP.

As such I would like to backport the 5.6 patch to 5.5 and at it to
the stabilization branch, if this is ok with you ?

This will be a single patch adding a new fs/vboxsf directory
and a single new Kconfig option, the fs-driver is fully self
contained and this patch can be dropped when we switch to the 5.6
kernels.

Regards,

Hans
