The MDS subsequently complains that the kernel client is late releasing
caps.

Approximately, a series of changes to this code by commits 49870056005c
("ceph: convert ceph_readpages to ceph_readahead"), 2de160417315
("netfs: Change -&gt;init_request() to return an error code") and
a5c9dc445139 ("ceph: Make ceph_init_request() check caps on readahead")
resulted in subtle resource cleanup to be missed. The main culprit is
the change in error handling in 2de160417315 which meant that a failure
in init_request() would no longer cause cleanup to be called. That
would prevent the ceph_put_cap_refs() call which would cleanup the
leaked cap ref.

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work to improve read/write performance for the new
  netfs library.

  The main performance enhancing changes are:

   - Define a structure, struct folio_queue, and a new iterator type,
     ITER_FOLIOQ, to hold a buffer as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. See
     that patch for questions about naming and form.

     ITER_FOLIOQ is provided as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. The
     problem with an xarray is that accessing it requires the use of a
     lock (typically the RCU read lock) - and this means that we can't
     supply iterate_and_advance() with a step function that might sleep
     (crypto for example) without having to drop the lock between pages.
     ITER_FOLIOQ is the iterator for a chain of folio_queue structs,
     where each folio_queue holds a small list of folios. A folio_queue
     struct is a simpler structure than xarray and is not subject to
     concurrent manipulation by the VM. folio_queue is used rather than
     a bvec[] as it can form lists of indefinite size, adding to one end
     and removing from the other on the fly.

   - Provide a copy_folio_from_iter() wrapper.

   - Make cifs RDMA support ITER_FOLIOQ.

   - Use folio queues in the write-side helpers instead of xarrays.

   - Add a function to reset the iterator in a subrequest.

   - Simplify the write-side helpers to use sheaves to skip gaps rather
     than trying to work out where gaps are.

   - In afs, make the read subrequests asynchronous, putting them into
     work items to allow the next patch to do progressive
     unlocking/reading.

   - Overhaul the read-side helpers to improve performance.

   - Fix the caching of a partial block at the end of a file.

   - Allow a store to be cancelled.

  Then some changes for cifs to make it use folio queues instead of
  xarrays for crypto bufferage:

   - Use raw iteration functions rather than manually coding iteration
     when hashing data.

   - Switch to using folio_queue for crypto buffers.

   - Remove the xarray bits.

  Make some adjustments to the /proc/fs/netfs/stats file such that:

   - All the netfs stats lines begin 'Netfs:' but change this to
     something a bit more useful.

   - Add a couple of stats counters to track the numbers of skips and
     waits on the per-inode writeback serialisation lock to make it
     easier to check for this as a source of performance loss.

  Miscellaneous work:

   - Ensure that the sb_writers lock is taken around
     vfs_{set,remove}xattr() in the cachefiles code.

   - Reduce the number of conditional branches in netfs_perform_write().

   - Move the CIFS_INO_MODIFIED_ATTR flag to the netfs_inode struct and
     remove cifs_post_modify().

   - Move the max_len/max_nr_segs members from netfs_io_subrequest to
     netfs_io_request as they're only needed for one subreq at a time.

   - Add an 'unknown' source value for tracing purposes.

   - Remove NETFS_COPY_TO_CACHE as it's no longer used.

   - Set the request work function up front at allocation time.

   - Use bh-disabling spinlocks for rreq-&gt;lock as cachefiles completion
     may be run from block-filesystem DIO completion in softirq context.

   - Remove fs/netfs/io.c"

Pull netfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work to improve read/write performance for the new
  netfs library.

  The main performance enhancing changes are:

   - Define a structure, struct folio_queue, and a new iterator type,
     ITER_FOLIOQ, to hold a buffer as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. See
     that patch for questions about naming and form.

     ITER_FOLIOQ is provided as a replacement for ITER_XARRAY. The
     problem with an xarray is that accessing it requires the use of a
     lock (typically the RCU read lock) - and this means that we can't
     supply iterate_and_advance() with a step function that might sleep
     (crypto for example) without having to drop the lock between pages.
     ITER_FOLIOQ is the iterator for a chain of folio_queue structs,
     where each folio_queue holds a small list of folios. A folio_queue
     struct is a simpler structure than xarray and is not subject to
     concurrent manipulation by the VM. folio_queue is used rather than
     a bvec[] as it can form lists of indefinite size, adding to one end
     and removing from the other on the fly.

   - Provide a copy_folio_from_iter() wrapper.

   - Make cifs RDMA support ITER_FOLIOQ.

   - Use folio queues in the write-side helpers instead of xarrays.

   - Add a function to reset the iterator in a subrequest.

   - Simplify the write-side helpers to use sheaves to skip gaps rather
     than trying to work out where gaps are.

   - In afs, make the read subrequests asynchronous, putting them into
     work items to allow the next patch to do progressive
     unlocking/reading.

   - Overhaul the read-side helpers to improve performance.

   - Fix the caching of a partial block at the end of a file.

   - Allow a store to be cancelled.

  Then some changes for cifs to make it use folio queues instead of
  xarrays for crypto bufferage:

   - Use raw iteration functions rather than manually coding iteration
     when hashing data.

   - Switch to using folio_queue for crypto buffers.

   - Remove the xarray bits.

  Make some adjustments to the /proc/fs/netfs/stats file such that:

   - All the netfs stats lines begin 'Netfs:' but change this to
     something a bit more useful.

   - Add a couple of stats counters to track the numbers of skips and
     waits on the per-inode writeback serialisation lock to make it
     easier to check for this as a source of performance loss.

  Miscellaneous work:

   - Ensure that the sb_writers lock is taken around
     vfs_{set,remove}xattr() in the cachefiles code.

   - Reduce the number of conditional branches in netfs_perform_write().

   - Move the CIFS_INO_MODIFIED_ATTR flag to the netfs_inode struct and
     remove cifs_post_modify().

   - Move the max_len/max_nr_segs members from netfs_io_subrequest to
     netfs_io_request as they're only needed for one subreq at a time.

   - Add an 'unknown' source value for tracing purposes.

   - Remove NETFS_COPY_TO_CACHE as it's no longer used.

   - Set the request work function up front at allocation time.

   - Use bh-disabling spinlocks for rreq-&gt;lock as cachefiles completion
     may be run from block-filesystem DIO completion in softirq context.

   - Remove fs/netfs/io.c"

Pull vfs folio updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains work to port write_begin and write_end to rely on folios
  for various filesystems.

  This converts ocfs2, vboxfs, orangefs, jffs2, hostfs, fuse, f2fs,
  ecryptfs, ntfs3, nilfs2, reiserfs, minixfs, qnx6, sysv, ufs, and
  squashfs.

  After this series lands a bunch of the filesystems in this list do not
  mention struct page anymore"
