After a quick analysis, simply reverting the patch that removed reiserfs
works seamlessly

    git revert -m 1 4ca2108

in 6.13, 6.14 and 6.15 and in 6.16-rc2 the only conflict is due to
some reformatting of a list to 80 columns, so for the time being
it's just matter of patching it back in to the kernel.

It's conceivable (since the creator of the removal patch appears to be
their linux-fs person) that there are forthcoming changes in the pipeline
that no one feels like applying to reiserfs, but if that happens
I will be happy to look at whatever is needed, having had long practice
at maintaining "difficult to maintain" code.

Let me know if you any further help is needed with this
