Commit 3103084afc ("ext4, doc: remove unnecessary escaping") removes
redundant underscore escaping, however the cell spacing in heading row of
blockmap table became not aligned anymore, hence triggers malformed table
warning:
Documentation/filesystems/ext4/blockmap.rst:3: WARNING: Malformed table.
+---------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| i.i_block Offset | Where It Points |
<snipped>...
The warning caused the table not being loaded.
Realign the heading row cell by adding missing space at the first cell
to fix the warning.

The new file Documentation/orphan/ext4.rst escapes underscores ("\_")
throughout. However, RST doesn't actually require that, so the escaping
only succeeds in making the document less readable. Remove the unneeded
escapes.

Commit 3a6541e97c (Add documentation about the orphan file feature) added
a new document on orphan files, which is great. But the use of
"list-table" results in documents that are absolutely unreadable in their
plain-text form. Switch this file to the regular RST table format instead;
the rendered (HTML) output is identical.

This adds support for encryption with casefolding.
Since the name on disk is case preserving, and also encrypted, we can no
longer just recompute the hash on the fly. Additionally, to avoid
leaking extra information from the hash of the unencrypted name, we use
siphash via an fscrypt v2 policy.
The hash is stored at the end of the directory entry for all entries
inside of an encrypted and casefolded directory apart from those that
deal with '.' and '..'. This way, the change is backwards compatible
with existing ext4 filesystems.

about the state of the extent status cache.
Dropped workaround for pre-1970 dates which were encoded incorrectly
in pre-4.4 kernels. Since both the kernel correctly generates, and
e2fsck detects and fixes this issue for the past four years, it'e time
to drop the workaround. (Also, it's not like files with dates in the
distant past were all that common in the first place.)
A lot of miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups, including some ext4
Documentation fixes. Also included are two minor bug fixes in

This commit aims to fix the following issues in ext4 documentation:
- Flexible block group docs said that the aim was to group block
metadata together instead of block group metadata.
- The documentation consistly uses "location" instead of "block number".
It is easy to confuse location to be an absolute offset on disk. Added
a line to clarify all location values are in terms of block numbers.
- Dirent2 docs said that the rec_len field is shortened instead of the
name_len field.
- Typo in bg_checksum description.
- Inode size is 160 bytes now, and hence i_extra_isize is now 32.
- Cluster size formula was incorrect, it did not include the +10 to
s_log_cluster_size value.
- Typo: there were two s_wtime_hi in the superblock struct.
- Superblock struct was outdated, added the new fields which were part
of s_reserved earlier.
- Multiple mount protection seems to be implemented in fs/ext4/mmp.c.

It turns out that the latex table formatters lay out table columns with
the exact proportional widths given in the table metadata, even if text
overflows outside the box. This was not caught during the initial
