Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner: - Fix the the buggy conversion of fuse_reverse_inval_entry() introduced during the creation rework - Disallow nfs delegation requests for directories by setting simple_nosetlease() - Require an opt-in for getting readdir flag bits outside of S_DT_MASK set in d_type - Fix scheduling delayed writeback work by only scheduling when the dirty time expiry interval is non-zero and cancel the delayed work if the interval is set to zero - Use rounded_jiffies_interval for dirty time work - Check the return value of sb_set_blocksize() for romfs - Wait for batched folios to be stable in __iomap_get_folio() - Use private naming for fuse hash size - Fix the stale dentry cleanup to prevent a race that causes a UAF * tag 'vfs-6.19-rc8.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: vfs: document d_dispose_if_unused() fuse: shrink once after all buckets have been scanned fuse: clean up fuse_dentry_tree_work() fuse: add need_resched() before unlocking bucket fuse: make sure dentry is evicted if stale fuse: fix race when disposing stale dentries fuse: use private naming for fuse hash size writeback: use round_jiffies_relative for dirtytime_work iomap: wait for batched folios to be stable in __iomap_get_folio romfs: check sb_set_blocksize() return value docs: clarify that dirtytime_expire_seconds=0 disables writeback writeback: fix 100% CPU usage when dirtytime_expire_interval is 0 readdir: require opt-in for d_type flags vboxsf: don't allow delegations to be set on directories ceph: don't allow delegations to be set on directories gfs2: don't allow delegations to be set on directories 9p: don't allow delegations to be set on directories smb/client: properly disallow delegations on directories nfs: properly disallow delegation requests on directories fuse: fix conversion of fuse_reverse_inval_entry() to start_removing()
