Merge tag 'vfs-6.10.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
  for vfs and individual fses.

  Features:

   - Free up FMODE_* bits. I've freed up bits 6, 7, 8, and 24. That
     means we now have six free FMODE_* bits in total (but bit #6
     already got used for FMODE_WRITE_RESTRICTED)

   - Add FOP_HUGE_PAGES flag (follow-up to FMODE_* cleanup)

   - Add fd_raw cleanup class so we can make use of automatic cleanup
     provided by CLASS(fd_raw, f)(fd) for O_PATH fds as well

   - Optimize seq_puts()

   - Simplify __seq_puts()

   - Add new anon_inode_getfile_fmode() api to allow specifying f_mode
     instead of open-coding it in multiple places

   - Annotate struct file_handle with __counted_by() and use
     struct_size()

   - Warn in get_file() whether f_count resurrection from zero is
     attempted (epoll/drm discussion)

   - Folio-sophize aio

   - Export the subvolume id in statx() for both btrfs and bcachefs

   - Relax linkat(AT_EMPTY_PATH) requirements

   - Add F_DUPFD_QUERY fcntl() allowing to compare two file descriptors
     for dup*() equality replacing kcmp()

  Cleanups:

   - Compile out swapfile inode checks when swap isn't enabled

   - Use (1 << n) notation for FMODE_* bitshifts for clarity

   - Remove redundant variable assignment in fs/direct-io

   - Cleanup uses of strncpy in orangefs

   - Speed up and cleanup writeback

   - Move fsparam_string_empty() helper into header since it's currently
     open-coded in multiple places

   - Add kernel-doc comments to proc_create_net_data_write()

   - Don't needlessly read dentry->d_flags twice

  Fixes:

   - Fix out-of-range warning in nilfs2

   - Fix ecryptfs overflow due to wrong encryption packet size
     calculation

   - Fix overly long line in xfs file_operations (follow-up to FMODE_*
     cleanup)

   - Don't raise FOP_BUFFER_{R,W}ASYNC for directories in xfs (follow-up
     to FMODE_* cleanup)

   - Don't call xfs_file_open from xfs_dir_open (follow-up to FMODE_*
     cleanup)

   - Fix stable offset api to prevent endless loops

   - Fix afs file server rotations

   - Prevent xattr node from overflowing the eraseblock in jffs2

   - Move fdinfo PTRACE_MODE_READ procfs check into the .permission()
     operation instead of .open() operation since this caused userspace
     regressions"

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 reStructuredText 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.
