Pull page cache updates from Matthew Wilcox:

 - Appoint myself page cache maintainer

 - Fix how scsicam uses the page cache

 - Use the memalloc_nofs_save() API to replace AOP_FLAG_NOFS

 - Remove the AOP flags entirely

 - Remove pagecache_write_begin() and pagecache_write_end()

 - Documentation updates

 - Convert several address_space operations to use folios:
     - is_dirty_writeback
     - readpage becomes read_folio
     - releasepage becomes release_folio
     - freepage becomes free_folio

 - Change filler_t to require a struct file pointer be the first
   argument like -&gt;read_folio

 "Features:

   - subpage:
      - support for PAGE_SIZE &gt; 4K (previously only 64K)
      - make it work with raid56

   - repair super block num_devices automatically if it does not match
     the number of device items

   - defrag can convert inline extents to regular extents, up to now
     inline files were skipped but the setting of mount option
     max_inline could affect the decision logic

   - zoned:
      - minimal accepted zone size is explicitly set to 4MiB
      - make zone reclaim less aggressive and don't reclaim if there are
        enough free zones
      - add per-profile sysfs tunable of the reclaim threshold

   - allow automatic block group reclaim for non-zoned filesystems, with
     sysfs tunables

   - tree-checker: new check, compare extent buffer owner against owner
     rootid

  Performance:

   - avoid blocking on space reservation when doing nowait direct io
     writes (+7% throughput for reads and writes)

   - NOCOW write throughput improvement due to refined locking (+3%)

   - send: reduce pressure to page cache by dropping extent pages right
     after they're processed

  Core:

   - convert all radix trees to xarray

   - add iterators for b-tree node items

   - support printk message index

   - user bulk page allocation for extent buffers

   - switch to bio_alloc API, use on-stack bios where convenient, other
     bio cleanups

   - use rw lock for block groups to favor concurrent reads

   - simplify workques, don't allocate high priority threads for all
     normal queues as we need only one

   - refactor scrub, process chunks based on their constraints and
     similarity

   - allocate direct io structures on stack and pass around only
     pointers, avoids allocation and reduces potential error handling

  Fixes:

   - fix count of reserved transaction items for various inode
     operations

   - fix deadlock between concurrent dio writes when low on free data
     space

   - fix a few cases when zones need to be finished

  VFS, iomap:

   - add helper to check if sb write has started (usable for assertions)

   - new helper iomap_dio_alloc_bio, export iomap_dio_bio_end_io"

Previously, directory inodes are directly handled with page cache
interfaces.

In order to support sub-page directory blocks and folios, let's
convert them into the latest metabuf infrastructure as well and
this patch addresses the readdir case first.

After seeking time on testing today upstream fsdax, I found it
actually doesn't work well as below:

[  186.492983] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[  186.493629] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 205 at fs/iomap/iter.c:33 iomap_iter+0x2f6/0x310

The problem is that m_dax_part_off should be applied to physical
addresses and very sorry about that I didn't catch this eariler.

Anyway, let's fix it up now. Also, I need to find a way to set up
a standalone testcase to look after this later.

The problem is that m_dax_part_off should be applied to physical
addresses and very sorry about that I didn't catch this eariler.

Anyway, let's fix it up now. Also, I need to find a way to set up
a standalone testcase to look after this later.

Pull dax and libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this is a rework of the dax_operations API after
  discovering the obstacles it posed to the work-in-progress DAX+reflink
  support for XFS and other copy-on-write filesystem mechanics.

  Primarily the need to plumb a block_device through the API to handle
  partition offsets was a sticking point and Christoph untangled that
  dependency in addition to other cleanups to make landing the
  DAX+reflink support easier.

  The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
  are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
  configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
  on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
  schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
  moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
  All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.

  Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
  included as well.

  Summary:

   - Simplify the dax_operations API:

      - Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
        maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap
        operations.

      - Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
        -&gt;copy_from_iter() and -&gt;copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
        block_device relative offset responsibility to the
        dax_direct_access() caller.

      - Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure

      - Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
        copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
        used for DAX.

   - Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support

   - Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support

   - Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api"
