Pull XFS updates from Darrick Wong:
 "For this release, we changed quite a few things.

  Highlights:

   - Fixed some long tail latency problems in the block allocator

   - Removed some long deprecated (and for the past several years no-op)
     mount options and ioctls

   - Strengthened the extended attribute and directory verifiers

   - Audited and fixed all the places where we could return EFSCORRUPTED
     without logging anything

   - Refactored the old SGI space allocation ioctls to make the
     equivalent fallocate calls

   - Fixed a race between fallocate and directio

   - Fixed an integer overflow when files have more than a few
     billion(!) extents

   - Fixed a longstanding bug where quota accounting could be incorrect
     when performing unwritten extent conversion on a freshly mounted fs

   - Fixed various complaints in scrub about soft lockups and
     unresponsiveness to signals

   - De-vtable'd the directory handling code, which should make it
     faster

   - Converted to the new mount api, for better or for worse

   - Cleaned up some memory leaks

  and quite a lot of other smaller fixes and cleanups.

  A more detailed summary:

   - Fill out the build string

   - Prevent inode fork extent count overflows

   - Refactor the allocator to reduce long tail latency

   - Rework incore log locking a little to reduce spinning

   - Break up the xfs_iomap_begin functions into smaller more cohesive
     parts

   - Fix allocation alignment being dropped too early when the
     allocation request is for more blocks than an AG is large

   - Other small cleanups

   - Clean up file buftarg retrieval helpers

   - Hoist the resvsp and unresvsp ioctls to the vfs

   - Remove the undocumented biosize mount option, since it has never
     been mentioned as existing or supported on linux

   - Enhance attr leaf verifier to check block structure

   - Check dirent and attr names for invalid characters before passing
     them to the vfs

     lockup warnings and/or fail to exit due to fatal signals pending

   - Fix various Coverity complaints

   - Remove most of the function pointers from the directory code to
     reduce indirection penalties

   - Ensure that dquots are attached to the inode when performing
     unwritten extent conversion after io

   - Deuglify incore projid and crtime types

   - Fix another AGI/AGF locking order deadlock when renaming

   - Clean up some quota typedefs

casting to pointer to int, only to pass that to function that
takes pointer to void and uses it as pointer to structure is
really asking for trouble.

"Some pointer, I'm not sure what to" is spelled "void *",
not "int *"; use that.

And declare the functions we are passing that pointer to
as taking the pointer to what they really want to access.

<title>compat_ioctl: add compat_ptr_ioctl()</title>

<content type='text'>
Many drivers have ioctl() handlers that are completely compatible between
32-bit and 64-bit architectures, except for the argument that is passed
down from user space and may have to be passed through compat_ptr()
in order to become a valid 64-bit pointer.

Using ".compat_ptr = compat_ptr_ioctl" in file operations should let
us simplify a lot of those drivers to avoid #ifdef checks, and convert
additional drivers that don't have proper compat handling yet.

On most architectures, the compat_ptr_ioctl() just passes all arguments
to the corresponding -&gt;ioctl handler. The exception is arch/s390, where
compat_ptr() clears the top bit of a 32-bit pointer value, so user space
pointers to the second 2GB alias the first 2GB, as is the case for native
32-bit s390 user space.

The compat_ptr_ioctl() function must therefore be used only with
ioctl functions that either ignore the argument or pass a pointer to a
compatible data type.

If any ioctl command handled by fops-&gt;unlocked_ioctl passes a plain
integer instead of a pointer, or any of the passed data types is
incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit architectures, a proper handler
is required instead of compat_ptr_ioctl.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner:
 "This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure.

  We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle
  - the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
  XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
  the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
  request.

  Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range
  infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply
  generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the
  data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with
  rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file
  sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these
  commits.

  We also introduce the ability for the -&gt;remap_file_range methods to
  return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get
  rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows
  filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if
  they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown
  to userspace.

  Existing filesystems are converted to user the new remap_file_range
  method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new
  generic checking infrastructure"

  - the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
  XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
  the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
  request.

  Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range
  infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply
  generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the
  data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with
  rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file
  sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these
  commits.

  We also introduce the ability for the -&gt;remap_file_range methods to
  return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get
  rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows
  filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if
  they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown
  to userspace.

  Existing filesystems are converted to user the new remap_file_range
  method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new
  generic checking infrastructure"

Plumb a remap_flags argument through the {do,vfs}_clone_file_range
functions so that clone can take advantage of it.

Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to
operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on.  This is a
requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe
results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a
graceful manner.

A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the
-&gt;clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length,
which will be returned in the function's return value.  For now the
short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change --
either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an
alternative.

Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas.

<title>vfs: fix FIGETBSZ ioctl on an overlayfs file</title>

Some anon_bdev filesystems (e.g. overlayfs, ceph) don't have s_blocksize
set. Returning zero from FIGETBSZ ioctl results in a Floating point
exception from the e2fsprogs utility filefrag, which divides the size of
the file with the value returned by FIGETBSZ.

Fix the interface by returning -EINVAL for these filesystems.
