0d72b92883 fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattr
generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately
today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute
(STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported,
and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain
timestamps.

Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers
just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers
(e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

925c86a19b fs: add CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD
Add a new config option that controls building the buffer_head code, and
select it from all file systems and stacking drivers that need it.

For the block device nodes and alternative iomap based buffered I/O path
is provided when buffer_head support is not enabled, and iomap needs a
a small tweak to define the IOMAP_F_BUFFER_HEAD flag to 0 to not call
into the buffer_head code when it doesn't exist.

Otherwise this is just Kconfig and ifdef changes.

3eccc0c886 Merge tag 'for-6.5/splice-2023-06-23' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux
Pull splice updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This kills off ITER_PIPE to avoid a race between truncate,
  iov_iter_revert() on the pipe and an as-yet incomplete DMA to a bio
  with unpinned/unref'ed pages from an O_DIRECT splice read. This causes
  memory corruption.

  Instead, we either use (a) filemap_splice_read(), which invokes the
  buffered file reading code and splices from the pagecache into the
  pipe; (b) copy_splice_read(), which bulk-allocates a buffer, reads
  into it and then pushes the filled pages into the pipe; or (c) handle
  it in filesystem-specific code.

  Summary:

   - Rename direct_splice_read() to copy_splice_read()

   - Simplify the calculations for the number of pages to be reclaimed
     in copy_splice_read()

   - Turn do_splice_to() into a helper, vfs_splice_read(), so that it
     can be used by overlayfs and coda to perform the checks on the
     lower fs

   - Make vfs_splice_read() jump to copy_splice_read() to handle
     direct-I/O and DAX

   - Provide shmem with its own splice_read to handle non-existent pages
     in the pagecache. We don't want a ->read_folio() as we don't want
     to populate holes, but filemap_get_pages() requires it

   - Provide overlayfs with its own splice_read to call down to a lower
     layer as overlayfs doesn't provide ->read_folio()

   - Provide coda with its own splice_read to call down to a lower layer
     as coda doesn't provide ->read_folio()

   - Direct ->splice_read to copy_splice_read() in tty, procfs, kernfs
     and random files as they just copy to the output buffer and don't
     splice pages

   - Provide wrappers for afs, ceph, ecryptfs, ext4, f2fs, nfs, ntfs3,
     ocfs2, orangefs, xfs and zonefs to do locking and/or revalidation

   - Make cifs use filemap_splice_read()

   - Replace pointers to generic_file_splice_read() with pointers to
     filemap_splice_read() as DIO and DAX are handled in the caller;
     filesystems can still provide their own alternate ->splice_read()
     op

   - Remove generic_file_splice_read()

   - Remove ITER_PIPE and its paraphernalia as generic_file_splice_read
     was the only user"

d0e135408e highmem: Rename put_and_unmap_page() to unmap_and_put_page()
With commit 849ad04cf5 ("new helper: put_and_unmap_page()"), Al Viro
introduced the put_and_unmap_page() to use in those many places where we
have a common pattern consisting of calls to kunmap_local() +
put_page().

Obviously, first we unmap and then we put pages. Instead, the original
name of this helper seems to imply that we first put and then unmap.

Therefore, rename the helper and change the only known upstreamed user
(i.e., fs/sysv) before this helper enters common use and might become
difficult to find all call sites and instead easy to break the builds.

83005276d3 fs/sysv: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()
kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
the mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.

With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.

Since kmap_local_page() would not break the strict rules of local mappings
(i.e., the thread locality and the stack based nesting), this function can
be easily and safely replace the deprecated API.

Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in fs/sysv. kunmap_local()
requires the mapping address, so return that address from dir_get_page()
to be used in dir_put_page().

4309093ecb sysv: don't flush page immediately for DIRSYNC directories
We do not need to writeout modified directory blocks immediately when
modifying them while the page is locked. It is enough to do the flush
somewhat later which has the added benefit that inode times can be
flushed as well. It also allows us to stop depending on
write_one_page() function.

Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a

conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces
that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers
without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for
bugs.

Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the
really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems
