Pull driver core and documentation fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here is one tiny debugfs change to fix up an API where the last user
  was successfully fixed up in 5.10-rc1 (so it couldn't be merged
  earlier), and a much larger Documentation/ABI/ update to the files so
  they can be automatically parsed by our tools.

  The Documentation/ABI/ updates are just formatting issues, small ones
  to bring the files into parsable format, and have been acked by
  numerous subsystem maintainers and the documentation maintainer. I
  figured it was good to get this into 5.10-rc2 to help wih the merge
  issues that would arise if these were to stick in linux-next until
  5.11-rc1.

  The debugfs change has been in linux-next for a long time, and the
  Documentation updates only for the last linux-next release"

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

<id>598a597636f8618a0520fd3ccefedaed9e4709b0</id>
<content type='text'>
Pull AFS fixes from David Howells:

 - Fix copy_file_range() to an afs file now returning EINVAL if the
   splice_write file op isn't supplied.

 - Fix a deref-before-check in afs_unuse_cell().

 - Fix a use-after-free in afs_xattr_get_acl().

 - Fix afs to not try to clear PG_writeback when laundering a page.

 - Fix afs to take a ref on a page that it sets PG_private on and to
   drop that ref when clearing PG_private. This is done through recently
   added helpers.

 - Fix a page leak if write_begin() fails.

 - Fix afs_write_begin() to not alter the dirty region info stored in
   page-&gt;private, but rather do this in afs_write_end() instead when we
   know what we actually changed.

 - Fix afs_invalidatepage() to alter the dirty region info on a page
   when partial page invalidation occurs so that we don't inadvertantly
   include a span of zeros that will get written back if a page gets
   laundered due to a remote 3rd-party induced invalidation.

   We mustn't, however, reduce the dirty region if the page has been
   seen to be mapped (ie. we got called through the page_mkwrite vector)
   as the page might still be mapped and we might lose data if the file
   is extended again.

 - Fix the dirty region info to have a lower resolution if the size of
   the page is too large for this to be encoded (e.g. powerpc32 with 64K
   pages).

   Note that this might not be the ideal way to handle this, since it
   may allow some leakage of undirtied zero bytes to the server's copy
   in the case of a 3rd-party conflict.

To aid the last two fixes, two additional changes:

 - Wrap the manipulations of the dirty region info stored in
   page-&gt;private into helper functions.

 - Alter the encoding of the dirty region so that the region bounds can
   be stored with one fewer bit, making a bit available for the
   indication of mappedness.

Pull ext4 fixes from Ted Ts'o:
 "Bug fixes for the new ext4 fast commit feature, plus a fix for the
  'data=journal' bug fix.

  Also use the generic casefolding support which has now landed in
  fs/libfs.c for 5.10"

* tag 'ext4_for_linus_fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4:
  ext4: indicate that fast_commit is available via /sys/fs/ext4/feature/...
  ext4: use generic casefolding support
  ext4: do not use extent after put_bh
  ext4: use IS_ERR() for error checking of path
  ext4: fix mmap write protection for data=journal mode
  jbd2: fix a kernel-doc markup

<title>afs: Fix dirty-region encoding on ppc32 with 64K pages</title>

The dirty region bounds stored in page-&gt;private on an afs page are 15 bits
on a 32-bit box and can, at most, represent a range of up to 32K within a
32K page with a resolution of 1 byte.  This is a problem for powerpc32 with
64K pages enabled.

Further, transparent huge pages may get up to 2M, which will be a problem
for the afs filesystem on all 32-bit arches in the future.

Fix this by decreasing the resolution.  For the moment, a 64K page will
have a resolution determined from PAGE_SIZE.  In the future, the page will
need to be passed in to the helper functions so that the page size can be
assessed and the resolution determined dynamically.

Note that this might not be the ideal way to handle this, since it may
allow some leakage of undirtied zero bytes to the server's copy in the case
of a 3rd-party conflict.  Fixing that would require a separately allocated
record and is a more complicated fix.

<title>afs: Fix afs_invalidatepage to adjust the dirty region</title>

Fix afs_invalidatepage() to adjust the dirty region recorded in
page-&gt;private when truncating a page.  If the dirty region is entirely
removed, then the private data is cleared and the page dirty state is
cleared.

Without this, if the page is truncated and then expanded again by truncate,
zeros from the expanded, but no-longer dirty region may get written back to
the server if the page gets laundered due to a conflicting 3rd-party write.

It mustn't, however, shorten the dirty region of the page if that page is
still mmapped and has been marked dirty by afs_page_mkwrite(), so a flag is
stored in page-&gt;private to record this.
