Pull vfs untorn write support from Christian Brauner:
 "An atomic write is a write issed with torn-write protection. This
  means for a power failure or any hardware failure all or none of the
  data from the write will be stored, never a mix of old and new data.

  This work is already supported for block devices. If a block device is
  opened with O_DIRECT and the block device supports atomic write, then
  FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE is added to the file of the opened block
  device.

  This contains the work to expand atomic write support to filesystems,
  specifically ext4 and XFS. Currently, only support for writing exactly
  one filesystem block atomically is added.

  Since it's now possible to have filesystem block size &gt; page size for
  XFS, it's possible to write 4K+ blocks atomically on x86"

Use a boolean instead of the MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET value to determine whether
the next_wakeup value has been set. Comparing elr-&gt;lr_next_sched to

<title>ext4: fix race in buffer_head read fault injection</title>

When I enabled ext4 debug for fault injection testing, I encountered the
following warning:

  EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_read_inode_bitmap:201: comm fsstress:
         Cannot read inode bitmap - block_group = 8, inode_bitmap = 1051
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 511 at fs/buffer.c:1181 mark_buffer_dirty+0x1b3/0x1d0

The root cause of the issue lies in the improper implementation of ext4's
buffer_head read fault injection. The actual completion of buffer_head
read and the buffer_head fault injection are not atomic, which can lead
to the uptodate flag being cleared on normally used buffer_heads in race
conditions.

                                        WARN_ON_ONCE(!buffer_uptodate(bh))

The best approach would be to perform fault injection in the IO completion
callback function, rather than after IO completion. However, the IO
completion callback function cannot get the fault injection code in sb.

Fix it by passing the result of fault injection into the bh read function,
we simulate faults within the bh read function itself. This requires adding
an extra parameter to the bh read functions that need fault injection.

When ctx_set_flags() is unused, it prevents kernel builds
with clang, `make W=1` and CONFIG_WERROR=y:

Fix this by marking ctx_*_flags() with __maybe_unused

<title>ext4: show the default enabled prefetch_block_bitmaps option</title>

<id>fdfa648ab9393de8c1be21cad17c17bdced3a68a</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit 21175ca434c5 ("ext4: make prefetch_block_bitmaps default"),
we enable 'prefetch_block_bitmaps' by default, but this is not shown in
the '/proc/fs/ext4/sdx/options' procfs interface.

This makes it impossible to distinguish whether the feature is enabled by
default or not, so 'prefetch_block_bitmaps' is shown in the 'options'
procfs interface when prefetch_block_bitmaps is enabled by default.

This makes it easy to notice changes to the default mount options between
versions through the '/proc/fs/ext4/sdx/options' procfs interface.

After commit 21175ca434c5 ("ext4: make prefetch_block_bitmaps default"),
we enable 'prefetch_block_bitmaps' by default, but this is not shown in
the '/proc/fs/ext4/sdx/options' procfs interface.

This makes it impossible to distinguish whether the feature is enabled by
default or not, so 'prefetch_block_bitmaps' is shown in the 'options'
procfs interface when prefetch_block_bitmaps is enabled by default.

This makes it easy to notice changes to the default mount options between
versions through the '/proc/fs/ext4/sdx/options' procfs interface.

<title>ext4: Add statx support for atomic writes</title>

This patch adds base support for atomic writes via statx getattr.
On bs &lt; ps systems, we can create FS with say bs of 16k. That means
both atomic write min and max unit can be set to 16k for supporting
atomic writes.

<title>ext4: avoid remount errors with 'abort' mount option</title>

<id>76486b104168ae59703190566e372badf433314b</id>
<content type='text'>
When we remount filesystem with 'abort' mount option while changing
other mount options as well (as is LTP test doing), we can return error
from the system call after commit d3476f3dad4a ("ext4: don't set
SB_RDONLY after filesystem errors") because the application of mount
option changes detects shutdown filesystem and refuses to do anything.
The behavior of application of other mount options in presence of
'abort' mount option is currently rather arbitary as some mount option
changes are handled before 'abort' and some after it.

Move aborting of the filesystem to the end of remount handling so all
requested changes are properly applied before the filesystem is shutdown
to have a reasonably consistent behavior.

Fixes: d3476f3dad4a ("ext4: don't set SB_RDONLY after filesystem errors")
