Linus Torvalds 6b1f86f8e9 Filesystem folio changes for 5.18
Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations
 to take a folio instead of a page.
 
 ->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the
 type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes.
 ->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change.
 ->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()
 ->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as
 an argument.
 
 There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth
 separating into their own pull request.

Merge tag 'folio-5.18b' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/pagecache

Pull filesystem folio updates from Matthew Wilcox:
 "Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations to
  take a folio instead of a page.

  Notably:

   - a_ops->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and
     changes the type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it
     obvious they're bytes.

   - a_ops->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a
     similar type change.

   - a_ops->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio()

   - a_ops->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the
     address_space as an argument.

  There are a couple of other misc changes up front that weren't worth
  separating into their own pull request"

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.

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.
