Pull XFS updates from Darrick Wong:
"For this release, we changed quite a few things.
Highlights:
- Fixed some long tail latency problems in the block allocator
- Removed some long deprecated (and for the past several years no-op)
mount options and ioctls
- Strengthened the extended attribute and directory verifiers
- Audited and fixed all the places where we could return EFSCORRUPTED
without logging anything
- Refactored the old SGI space allocation ioctls to make the
equivalent fallocate calls
- Fixed a race between fallocate and directio
- Fixed an integer overflow when files have more than a few
billion(!) extents
- Fixed a longstanding bug where quota accounting could be incorrect
when performing unwritten extent conversion on a freshly mounted fs
- Fixed various complaints in scrub about soft lockups and
unresponsiveness to signals
- De-vtable'd the directory handling code, which should make it
faster
- Converted to the new mount api, for better or for worse
- Cleaned up some memory leaks
and quite a lot of other smaller fixes and cleanups.
A more detailed summary:
- Fill out the build string

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.
