Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "The changes primarily focus on filesystem error reporting, reducing
  memory footprint by reverting in-memory data structures used for
  runtime validation, honoring FDP hints, and adding trace and debug
  logs. In addition, there are critical bug fixes resolving
  out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities in inline directory and ACL
  handling, potential deadlocks in balance_fs, use-after-free issues in
  atomic writes, and false data/node type assignments in large sections.

  Enhancements:
   - Revert  in-memory sit version and block bitmaps
   - support to report fserror
   - add trace_f2fs_fault_report
   - add iostat latency tracking for direct IO
   - add logs in f2fs_disable_checkpoint()
   - honor per-I/O write streams for direct writes
   - map data writes to FDP streams
   - skip inode folio lookup for cached overwrite
   - skip direct I/O iostat context when disabled
   - revert "check in-memory block bitmap"
   - revert "check in-memory sit version bitmap"

  Fixes:
   - optimize representative type determination in GC
   - fix incorrect FI_NO_EXTENT handling in __destroy_extent_node()
   - fix potential deadlock in f2fs_balance_fs()
   - fix potential deadlock in gc_merge path of f2fs_balance_fs()
   - atomic: fix UAF issue on f2fs_inode_info.atomic_inode
   - fix missing read bio submission on large folio error
   - pass correct iostat type for single node writes
   - fix to do sanity check on f2fs_get_node_folio_ra()
   - validate orphan inode entry count
   - keep atomic write retry from zeroing original data
   - read COW data with the original inode during atomic write
   - validate inline dentry name lengths before conversion
   - validate dentry name length before lookup compares it
   - reject setattr size changes on large folio files
   - revert "remove non-uptodate folio from the page cache in move_data_block"
   - validate ACL entry sizes in f2fs_acl_from_disk()
   - bound i_inline_xattr_size for non-inline-xattr inodes
   - fix listxattr handling of corrupted xattr entries
   - fix to round down start offset of fallocate for pin file"

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "The most notable change is the removal of the fscache backend: it has
  been deprecated for almost two years, mainly because EROFS file-backed
  mounts and fanotify pre-content hooks (together with erofs-utils) now
  provide better functionality and simpler codebase. In addition,
  fscache has depended on netfslib for years, which is undesirable for
  EROFS since it is a local filesystem. More details in [1].

  In addition, sparse support has been added to the pcluster layout,
  which is helpful for large sparse AI datasets, and map requests for
  chunk-based inodes have been optimized to be more efficient as well.
  There are also the usual fixes and cleanups.

  Summary:

   - Report more consecutive chunks of the same type for
     each iomap request

   - Add sparse support for the pcluster layout

   - Update the EROFS documentation overview

   - Remove the deprecated fscache backend

   - Various fixes and cleanups"

  erofs: handle 48-bit blocks_hi for compressed inodes
  erofs: remove fscache backend entirely
  erofs: simplify RCU read critical sections
  erofs: add sparse support to pcluster layout
  erofs: add folio order to trace_erofs_read_folio

  erofs: call erofs_exit_ishare() before rcu_barrier()
  erofs: update the overview of the documentation
  erofs: clean up erofs_ishare_fill_inode()

EROFS over fscache was introduced to provide image lazy pulling
functionality. After the feature landed, the fscache subsystem made
netfs a new hard dependency, which is unexpected for a local filesystem
and has an kernel-defined caching hierarchy which could be inflexible
compared to the fanotify pre-content hooks. Therefore, this feature has
been deprecated for almost two years.

As EROFS file-backed mounts and fanotify pre-content hooks both upstream
for a while and already providing equivalent functionality (erofs-utils
has supported fanotify pre-content hooks), let's remove the fscache
backend now.

The main application of this feature is Nydus [1], and they plan to move
to use fanotify pre-content hooks in the near future too.

I hope this patch can be merged into Linux 7.2, which is also motivated
by newly found implementation issues [2][3] that are not worth
investigating given the deprecation and limited development resources.
The associated fscache/cachefiles cleanup patch will follow separately
through the vfs tree (netfs) later: it seems fine since the codebase is
isolated by CONFIG_CACHEFILES_ONDEMAND.

 "Asides of the avalanche of LLM-driven fixes, there are a couple of big
  changes this cycle:

   - negative dentry and symlink cache

   - a way out of the unkillable "io_wait_event_killable" (because it
     looped around waiting for the request flush to come back from
     server; this has been bugging syzcaller folks since forever): I'm
     still not 100% sure about this patch, but I think it's as good as
     we'll ever get, and will keep testing a bit further in the coming
     weeks

  net/9p/usbg: Constify struct configfs_item_operations

Introduce a new mount option, negtimeout, for v9fs that allows users
to specify how long negative dentries are retained in the cache. The
retention time can be set in milliseconds (e.g. negtimeout=10000 for
a 10secs retention time) or a negative value (e.g. negtimeout=-1) to
keep negative entries until the buffer cache management removes them.

For consistency reasons, this option should only be used in exclusive
or read-only mount scenarios, aligning with the cache=loose usage.

Pull ntfs updates from Namjae Jeon:

 - Harden handling of malformed on-disk metadata.

   This adds stricter validation for attributes, attribute lists, index
   roots and entries, EA entries, mapping pairs, and $LogFile restart
   areas. These changes fix several out-of-bounds access, integer
   overflow, and inconsistent metadata handling issues.

 - Prevent a writeback deadlock involving extent MFT records

 - Fix resource leaks in fill_super() failure paths and the name cache

 - Serialize volume label access and improving its error handling

 - Fix mapping-pairs decoding bounds and LCN overflow checks

 - Keep resident index root metadata consistent during resize

 - Fix the reported size of symbolic links

 - Avoid an unnecessary allocation for resident inline data

 - Add support for following and creating Windows native symbolic links.

   Relative links, absolute links, and junctions are handled, with new
   mount options controlling native symlink creation and absolute target
   translation. The existing WSL symlink behavior remains the default.

 - The unsupported quota code is removed, along with several smaller
   cleanups

as an immutable image filesystem, update the feature highlights with
recent capabilities, and remove outdated items.

The following detailed sections will be revised later since the overview
section is the most visible part of our documentation. Outdated or
ambiguous information could mislead new users and potential adopters.
