Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "In this round, Matthew converted most of page operations to using
  folio. Beyond the work, we've applied some performance tunings such as
  GC and linear lookup, in addition to enhancing fault injection and
  sanity checks.

  Enhancements:
   - large number of folio conversions
   - add a control to turn on/off the linear lookup for performance
   - tune GC logics for zoned block device
   - improve fault injection and sanity checks

  Bug fixes:
   - handle error cases of memory donation
   - fix to correct check conditions in f2fs_cross_rename
   - fix to skip f2fs_balance_fs() if checkpoint is disabled
   - don't over-report free space or inodes in statvfs
   - prevent the current section from being selected as a victim during GC
   - fix to calculate first_zoned_segno correctly
   - fix to avoid inconsistence between SIT and SSA for zoned block device

  As usual, there are several debugging patches and clean-ups as well"

<title>f2fs: fix freezing filesystem during resize</title>

Using FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE has two consequences:

(1) If userspace freezes the filesystem after mnt_drop_write_file() but
    before freeze_super() was called filesystem resizing will fail
    because the freeze isn't marked as nestable.

(2) If the kernel has successfully frozen the filesystem via
    FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE userspace can simply undo it by using the
    FITHAW ioctl.

Fix both issues by using FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. It will nest with
FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and cannot be undone by userspace.

And it is the correct thing to do because the kernel temporarily freezes
the filesystem.

<title>super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate</title>

Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for
suspend and hibernate.

For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that
they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is
the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did
actually freeze the filesystem.

If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5
and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future)
then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't
just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new
filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which
filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze
reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw.

There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the
filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in
the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the
freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively
freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned
by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for
the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more
code changes.

If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration),
then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already
frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually
happens.

If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may
unexpectedly fail with EBUSY.

So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer
cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

All assignments to this struct member are conversions from a folio
so convert it to be a folio and convert all users.  At the same time,
convert data_blkaddr() to take a folio as all callers now have a folio.
Remove eight calls to compound_head().
