Pull in the gfs2 iomap-write changes: Tweak the existing code to
properly support iomap write and eliminate an unnecessary special case
in gfs2_block_map. Implement iomap write support for buffered and
direct I/O. Simplify some of the existing code and eliminate code that
is no longer used:
gfs2: Remove gfs2_write_{begin,end}
gfs2: iomap direct I/O support
gfs2: gfs2_extent_length cleanup
gfs2: iomap buffered write support
gfs2: Further iomap cleanups
This is based on the following changes on the xfs 'iomap-4.19-merge'
branch:
iomap: add private pointer to struct iomap
iomap: add a page_done callback
iomap: generic inline data handling
iomap: complete partial direct I/O writes synchronously
iomap: mark newly allocated buffer heads as new
fs: factor out a __generic_write_end helper

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
