The linux-next integration testing tree

Under some circumstances, filemap_read() will allocate sufficient pages to read to the end of the file, call readahead/readpages on them and copy the data over - and then it will allocate another page at the EOF and call readpage on that and then ignore it. This is unnecessary and a waste of time and resources. filemap_read() *does* check for this, but only after it has already done the allocation and I/O. Fix this by checking before calling filemap_get_pages() also.

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.
