Hi

Following
https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/merge_requests/1634 and
having dropped bcachefs support in unstable/forky in the kernel I
think it would be time to consider doing the same for the next trixie
Linux upload, but I would want to get opinions, or NACKs from SRM if
this is not wanted.

bcachefs-tools were not released along with trixie, so I suspect we
have only a little user base at all.

The changes would be as in the above merge request, and adding a
corresponding NEWS entry as well.

Should we move ahead and do that?

Regards,
Salvatore
