Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This is the work to cleanup and shrink struct file significantly.

  Right now, (focusing on x86) struct file is 232 bytes. After this
  series struct file will be 184 bytes aka 3 cacheline and a spare 8
  bytes for future extensions at the end of the struct.

  With struct file being as ubiquitous as it is this should make a
  difference for file heavy workloads and allow further optimizations in
  the future.

   - struct fown_struct was embedded into struct file letting it take up
     32 bytes in total when really it shouldn't even be embedded in
     struct file in the first place. Instead, actual users of struct
     fown_struct now allocate the struct on demand. This frees up 24
     bytes.

   - Move struct file_ra_state into the union containg the cleanup hooks
     and move f_iocb_flags out of the union. This closes a 4 byte hole
     we created earlier and brings struct file to 192 bytes. Which means
     struct file is 3 cachelines and we managed to shrink it by 40
     bytes.

   - Reorder struct file so that nothing crosses a cacheline.

     I suspect that in the future we will end up reordering some members
     to mitigate false sharing issues or just because someone does
     actually provide really good perf data.

   - Shrinking struct file to 192 bytes is only part of the work.

     Files use a slab that is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and when a kmem cache
     is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU the free pointer must be
     located outside of the object because the cache doesn't know what
     part of the memory can safely be overwritten as it may be needed to
     prevent object recycling.

     That has the consequence that SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU may end up
     adding a new cacheline.

     So this also contains work to add a new kmem_cache_create_rcu()
     function that allows the caller to specify an offset where the
     freelist pointer is supposed to be placed. Thus avoiding the
     implicit addition of a fourth cacheline.

   - And finally this removes the f_version member in struct file.

     The f_version member isn't particularly well-defined. It is mainly
     used as a cookie to detect concurrent seeks when iterating
     directories. But it is also abused by some subsystems for
     completely unrelated things.

     It is mostly a directory and filesystem specific thing that doesn't
     really need to live in struct file and with its wonky semantics it
     really lacks a specific function.

     For pipes, f_version is (ab)used to defer poll notifications until
     a write has happened. And struct pipe_inode_info is used by
     multiple struct files in their -&gt;private_data so there's no chance
     of pushing that down into file-&gt;private_data without introducing
     another pointer indirection.

     But pipes don't rely on f_pos_lock so this adds a union into struct
     file encompassing f_pos_lock and a pipe specific f_pipe member that
     pipes can use. This union of course can be extended to other file
     types and is similar to what we do in struct inode already"

<title>ext4: fix a potential assertion failure due to improperly dirtied buffer</title>

<id>cb3de5fc876ee9ef2b830c9e6cdafac5c90903ef</id>
<content type='text'>
On an old kernel version(4.19, ext3, data=journal, pagesize=64k),
an assertion failure will occasionally be triggered by the line below:
-----------
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
{
...
J_ASSERT_BH(bh, !buffer_dirty(bh));
/*
* The buffer on BJ_Forget list and not jbddirty means
...
}
-----------

The same condition may also be applied to the lattest kernel version.

When blocksize &lt; pagesize and we truncate a file, there can be buffers in
the mapping tail page beyond i_size. These buffers will be filed to
transaction's BJ_Forget list by ext4_journalled_invalidatepage() during
truncation. When the transaction doing truncate starts committing, we can
grow the file again. This calls __block_write_begin() which allocates new
blocks under these buffers in the tail page we go through the branch:

                        if (buffer_new(bh)) {
                                clean_bdev_bh_alias(bh);
                                if (folio_test_uptodate(folio)) {
                                        clear_buffer_new(bh);
                                        set_buffer_uptodate(bh);
                                        mark_buffer_dirty(bh);
                                        continue;
                                }
                                ...
                        }

Hence buffers on BJ_Forget list of the committing transaction get marked
dirty and this triggers the jbd2 assertion.

Teach ext4_block_write_begin() to properly handle files with data
journalling by avoiding dirtying them directly. Instead of
folio_zero_new_buffers() we use ext4_journalled_zero_new_buffers() which
takes care of handling journalling. We also don't need to mark new uptodate
buffers as dirty in ext4_block_write_begin(). That will be either done
either by block_commit_write() in case of success or by
folio_zero_new_buffers() in case of failure.

<title>ext4: hoist ext4_block_write_begin and replace the __block_write_begin</title>

Using __block_write_begin() make it inconvenient to journal the
user data dirty process. We can't tell the block layer maintainer,
‘Hey, we want to trace the dirty user data in ext4, can we add some
special code for ext4 in __block_write_begin?’:P

So use ext4_block_write_begin() instead.

The two functions are basically doing the same thing except for the
fscrypt related code. Remove the unnecessary #ifdef since
fscrypt_inode_uses_fs_layer_crypto() returns false (and it's known at
compile time) when !CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION.

And hoist the ext4_block_write_begin so that it can be used in other
files.

When looking up for an entry in an inlined directory, if e_value_offs is
changed underneath the filesystem by some change in the block device, it
will lead to an out-of-bounds access that KASAN detects as an UAF.

EXT4-fs (loop0): mounted filesystem 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 r/w without journal. Quota mode: none.
loop0: detected capacity change from 2048 to 2047

Calling ext4_xattr_ibody_find right after reading the inode with
ext4_get_inode_loc will lead to a check of the validity of the xattrs,
avoiding this problem.

In case of errors when reading an inode from disk or traversing inline
directory entries, return an error-encoded ERR_PTR instead of returning
NULL. ext4_find_inline_entry only caller, __ext4_find_entry already returns
such encoded errors.

Almost all callers have a folio now, so change __block_write_begin()
to take a folio and remove a call to compound_head().

Convert all callers from working on a page to working on one page
of a folio (support for working on an entire folio can come later).
Removes a lot of folio-&gt;page-&gt;folio conversions.

Syzbot has found an uninit-value bug in ext4_inlinedir_to_tree

This error happens because ext4_inlinedir_to_tree does not
handle the case when ext4fs_dirhash returns an error

This can be avoided by checking the return value of ext4fs_dirhash
and propagating the error,
similar to how it's done with ext4_htree_store_dirent
