Merge tag 'gfs2-v5.18-rc4-fix3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2

Pull gfs2 fixes from Andreas Gruenbacher:
 "We've finally identified commit dc732906c2 ("gfs2: Introduce flag
  for glock holder auto-demotion") to be the other cause of the
  filesystem corruption we've been seeing. This feature isn't strictly
  necessary anymore, so we've decided to stop using it for now.

  With this and the gfs_iomap_end rounding fix you've already seen
  ("gfs2: Fix filesystem block deallocation for short writes" in this
  pull request), we're corruption free again now.

   - Fix filesystem block deallocation for short writes.

   - Stop using glock holder auto-demotion for now.

   - Get rid of buffered writes inefficiencies due to page faults being
     disabled.

   - Minor other cleanups"

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.
