Pull bdev bd_inode updates from Al Viro:

* tag 'pull-bd_inode-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:

  dasd_format(): killing the last remaining user of -&gt;bd_inode
  nilfs_attach_log_writer(): use -&gt;bd_mapping-&gt;host instead of -&gt;bd_inode
  block/bdev.c: use the knowledge of inode/bdev coallocation

This code calls folio_put() on an error pointer which will lead to a
crash.  Check for both error pointers and NULL pointers before calling
folio_put().

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
  for vfs and individual fses.

  Features:

   - Free up FMODE_* bits. I've freed up bits 6, 7, 8, and 24. That
     means we now have six free FMODE_* bits in total (but bit #6
     already got used for FMODE_WRITE_RESTRICTED)

   - Add FOP_HUGE_PAGES flag (follow-up to FMODE_* cleanup)

   - Add fd_raw cleanup class so we can make use of automatic cleanup
     provided by CLASS(fd_raw, f)(fd) for O_PATH fds as well

   - Optimize seq_puts()

   - Simplify __seq_puts()

   - Add new anon_inode_getfile_fmode() api to allow specifying f_mode
     instead of open-coding it in multiple places

   - Annotate struct file_handle with __counted_by() and use
     struct_size()

   - Warn in get_file() whether f_count resurrection from zero is
     attempted (epoll/drm discussion)

   - Folio-sophize aio

   - Export the subvolume id in statx() for both btrfs and bcachefs

   - Relax linkat(AT_EMPTY_PATH) requirements

   - Add F_DUPFD_QUERY fcntl() allowing to compare two file descriptors
     for dup*() equality replacing kcmp()

  Cleanups:

   - Compile out swapfile inode checks when swap isn't enabled

   - Use (1 &lt;&lt; n) notation for FMODE_* bitshifts for clarity

   - Remove redundant variable assignment in fs/direct-io

   - Cleanup uses of strncpy in orangefs

   - Speed up and cleanup writeback

   - Move fsparam_string_empty() helper into header since it's currently
     open-coded in multiple places

   - Add kernel-doc comments to proc_create_net_data_write()

   - Don't needlessly read dentry-&gt;d_flags twice

  Fixes:

   - Fix out-of-range warning in nilfs2

   - Fix ecryptfs overflow due to wrong encryption packet size
     calculation

   - Fix overly long line in xfs file_operations (follow-up to FMODE_*
     cleanup)

   - Don't raise FOP_BUFFER_{R,W}ASYNC for directories in xfs (follow-up
     to FMODE_* cleanup)

   - Don't call xfs_file_open from xfs_dir_open (follow-up to FMODE_*
     cleanup)

   - Fix stable offset api to prevent endless loops

   - Fix afs file server rotations

   - Prevent xattr node from overflowing the eraseblock in jffs2

<title>ext4: fix uninitialized ratelimit_state-&gt;lock access in __ext4_fill_super()</title>

<id>b4b4fda34e535756f9e774fb2d09c4537b7dfd1c</id>

In the following concurrency we will access the uninitialized rs-&gt;lock:

ext4_fill_super
  ext4_register_sysfs
   // sysfs registered msg_ratelimit_interval_ms
                             // Other processes modify rs-&gt;interval to
                             // non-zero via msg_ratelimit_interval_ms
  ext4_orphan_cleanup
    ext4_msg(sb, KERN_INFO, "Errors on filesystem, "
      __ext4_msg
        ___ratelimit(&amp;(EXT4_SB(sb)-&gt;s_msg_ratelimit_state)
          if (!rs-&gt;interval)  // do nothing if interval is 0
            return 1;
          raw_spin_trylock_irqsave(&amp;rs-&gt;lock, flags)
            raw_spin_trylock(lock)
              _raw_spin_trylock
                __raw_spin_trylock
                  spin_acquire(&amp;lock-&gt;dep_map, 0, 1, _RET_IP_)
                    lock_acquire
                      __lock_acquire
                        register_lock_class
                          assign_lock_key
                            dump_stack();
  ratelimit_state_init(&amp;sbi-&gt;s_msg_ratelimit_state, 5 * HZ, 10);
    raw_spin_lock_init(&amp;rs-&gt;lock);
    // init rs-&gt;lock here

and get the following dump_stack:

Normally interval is 0 until s_msg_ratelimit_state is initialized, so
___ratelimit() does nothing. But registering sysfs precedes initializing
rs-&gt;lock, so it is possible to change rs-&gt;interval to a non-zero value
via the msg_ratelimit_interval_ms interface of sysfs while rs-&gt;lock is
uninitialized, and then a call to ext4_msg triggers the problem by
accessing an uninitialized rs-&gt;lock. Therefore register sysfs after all
initializations are complete to avoid such problems.

<title>ext4: propagate errors from ext4_sb_bread() in ext4_xattr_block_cache_find()</title>

In ext4_xattr_block_cache_find(), when ext4_sb_bread() returns an error,
we will either continue to find the next ea block or return NULL to try to
insert a new ea block. But whether ext4_sb_bread() returns -EIO or -ENOMEM,
the next operation is most likely to fail with the same error. So propagate
the error returned by ext4_sb_bread() to make ext4_xattr_block_set() fail
to reduce pointless operations.

This is because when finding an entry in ext4_xattr_block_cache_find(), if
ext4_sb_bread() returns -ENOMEM, the ce's e_refcnt, which has already grown
in the __entry_find(), won't be put away, and eventually trigger the above
issue in mb_cache_destroy() due to reference count leakage.

So call mb_cache_entry_put() on the -ENOMEM error branch as a quick fix.
