Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "The first two changes involve files outside of fs/ext4:

   - submit_bh() can never return an error, so change it to return void,
     and remove the unused checks from its callers

   - fix I_DIRTY_TIME handling so it will be set even if the inode
     already has I_DIRTY_INODE

  Performance:

   - Always enable i_version counter (as btrfs and xfs already do).
     Remove some uneeded i_version bumps to avoid unnecessary nfs cache
     invalidations

   - Wake up journal waiters in FIFO order, to avoid some journal users
     from not getting a journal handle for an unfairly long time

   - In ext4_write_begin() allocate any necessary buffer heads before
     starting the journal handle

   - Don't try to prefetch the block allocation bitmaps for a read-only
     file system

  Bug Fixes:

   - Fix a number of fast commit bugs, including resources leaks and out
     of bound references in various error handling paths and/or if the
     fast commit log is corrupted

   - Avoid stopping the online resize early when expanding a file system
     which is less than 16TiB to a size greater than 16TiB

   - Fix apparent metadata corruption caused by a race with a metadata
     buffer head getting migrated while it was trying to be read

   - Mark the lazy initialization thread freezable to prevent suspend
     failures

   - Other miscellaneous bug fixes

  Cleanups:

   - Break up the incredibly long ext4_full_super() function by
     refactoring to move code into more understandable, smaller
     functions

   - Remove the deprecated (and ignored) noacl and nouser_attr mount
     option

   - Factor out some common code in fast commit handling

   - Other miscellaneous cleanups"

<title>ext4: avoid crash when inline data creation follows DIO write</title>

When inode is created and written to using direct IO, there is nothing
to clear the EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Thus when inode gets
truncated later to say 1 byte and written using normal write, we will
try to store the data as inline data. This confuses the code later
because the inode now has both normal block and inline data allocated
and the confusion manifests for example as:

<title>fscrypt: change fscrypt_dio_supported() to prepare for STATX_DIOALIGN</title>

<id>53dd3f802a6e269868cb599609287a841e65a996</id>
<content type='text'>
To prepare for STATX_DIOALIGN support, make two changes to
fscrypt_dio_supported().

First, remove the filesystem-block-alignment check and make the
filesystems handle it instead.  It previously made sense to have it in
fs/crypto/; however, to support STATX_DIOALIGN the alignment restriction
would have to be returned to filesystems.  It ends up being simpler if
filesystems handle this part themselves, especially for f2fs which only
allows fs-block-aligned DIO in the first place.

Second, make fscrypt_dio_supported() work on inodes whose encryption key
hasn't been set up yet, by making it set up the key if needed.  This is
required for statx(), since statx() doesn't require a file descriptor.

Allow the file system to keep state for all iterations.  For now only
wire it up for direct I/O as there is an immediate need for it there.

We can extract both the file pointer and the pos from the iocb.
This simplifies each caller as well as allowing generic_perform_write()
to see more of the iocb contents in the future.

Encrypted files traditionally haven't supported DIO, due to the need to
encrypt/decrypt the data.  However, when the encryption is implemented
using inline encryption (blk-crypto) instead of the traditional
filesystem-layer encryption, it is straightforward to support DIO.

Therefore, make ext4 support DIO on files that are using inline
encryption.  Since ext4 uses iomap for DIO, and fscrypt support was
already added to iomap DIO, this just requires two small changes:

- Let DIO proceed when supported, by checking fscrypt_dio_supported()
  instead of assuming that encrypted files never support DIO.

- In ext4_iomap_begin(), use fscrypt_limit_io_blocks() to limit the
  length of the mapping in the rare case where a DUN discontiguity
  occurs in the middle of an extent.  The iomap DIO implementation
  requires this, since it assumes that it can submit a bio covering (up
  to) the whole mapping, without checking fscrypt constraints itself.

<title>ext4: use ext4_journal_start/stop for fast commit transactions</title>

This patch drops all calls to ext4_fc_start_update() and
ext4_fc_stop_update(). To ensure that there are no ongoing journal
updates during fast commit, we also make jbd2_fc_begin_commit() lock
journal for updates. This way we don't have to maintain two different
transaction start stop APIs for fast commit and full commit. This
patch doesn't remove the functions altogether since in future we want
to have inode level locking for fast commits.

Pull gfs2 mmap + page fault deadlocks fixes from Andreas Gruenbacher:
 "Functions gfs2_file_read_iter and gfs2_file_write_iter are both
  accessing the user buffer to write to or read from while holding the
  inode glock.

  In the most basic deadlock scenario, that buffer will not be resident
  and it will be mapped to the same file. Accessing the buffer will
  trigger a page fault, and gfs2 will deadlock trying to take the same
  inode glock again while trying to handle that fault.

  Fix that and similar, more complex scenarios by disabling page faults
  while accessing user buffers. To make this work, introduce a small
  amount of new infrastructure and fix some bugs that didn't trigger so
  far, with page faults enabled"

<title>iomap: Add done_before argument to iomap_dio_rw</title>

Add a done_before argument to iomap_dio_rw that indicates how much of
the request has already been transferred.  When the request succeeds, we
report that done_before additional bytes were tranferred.  This is
useful for finishing a request asynchronously when part of the request
has already been completed synchronously.

We'll use that to allow iomap_dio_rw to be used with page faults
disabled: when a page fault occurs while submitting a request, we
synchronously complete the part of the request that has already been
submitted.  The caller can then take care of the page fault and call
iomap_dio_rw again for the rest of the request, passing in the number of
bytes already tranferred.
