Now that ext4_writepages() gets journalled data into its final location
we just use filemap_write_and_wait() instead of special handling of
journalled data in ext4_bmap(). We can also drop EXT4_STATE_JDATA flag
as it is not used anymore.

Now that ext4_writepages() makes sure journalled data is on stable
storage, write_inode_now() call in iput_final() is enough to make
pagecache pages with journalled data really clean (data committed and
checkpointed). So we can drop special handling of journalled data in
ext4_evict_inode().

When journalling data we currently just walk over pages, journal those
that are marked for delayed dirtying (only pinned pages dirtied behing
our back these days) and checkpoint other dirty pages. Because some
pages may be part of running transaction the result is that after
filemap_write_and_wait() we are not guaranteed pages are stable on disk.
Thus places that want to flush current pagecache content need to jump
through hoops to make sure journalled data is not lost. This is
manageable in cases completely controlled by ext4 (such as extent
shifting operations or inode eviction) but it gets ugly for stuff like
fsverity. Furthermore it is rather error prone as people often do not
realize journalled data needs special handling.
So change ext4_writepages() to commit transaction with inode's data
before going through the writeback loop in WB_SYNC_ALL mode. As a result
filemap_write_and_wait() is now really getting pages to stable storage
and makes pagecache pages safe to reclaim. Consequently we can remove
the special handling of journalled data from several places in follow up
patches.
Note that this will make fsync(2) for journalled data more expensive as
we will end up not only committing the transaction we need but also
checkpointing the data (which we may have previously skipped if the data
was part of the running transaction). If we really cared, we would need
to introduce special VFS function for writing out & invalidating page
cache for a range, use ->launder_page callback to perform checkpointing,
and use it from all the places that need this functionality. But at this
point I'm not convinced the complexity is worth it.

With journalled data it can happen that checkpointing code will write
out page contents without clearing the page dirty bit. The logic in
ext4_page_nomap_can_writeout() then results in us never calling
mpage_submit_page() and thus clearing the dirty bit. Drop the
optimization with ext4_page_nomap_can_writeout() and just always call to
mpage_submit_page(). ext4_bio_write_page() knows when to redirty the
page and the additional clearing & setting of page dirty bit for ordered
mode writeout is not that expensive to jump through the hoops for it.

Currently we clear page dirty bit when we checkpoint some buffers from a
page with journalled data or when we perform delayed dirtying of a page
in ext4_writepages(). In a quest to simplify handling of journalled data
we want to keep page dirty as long as it has either buffers to
checkpoint or journalled dirty data. So make sure to keep page dirty in
ext4_writepages() if it still has journalled data attached to it.

Currently pages with journalled data written by write(2) or modified by
block zeroing during truncate(2) are not marked as dirty. They are
dirtied only once the transaction commits. This however makes writeback
code think inode has no pages to write and so ext4_writepages() is not
called to make pages with journalled data persistent. Mark pages with
journalled data dirty (similarly as it happens for writes through mmap)
so that writeback code knows about them and ext4_writepages() can do
what it needs to to the inode.

Test generic/390 in data=journal mode often triggers a warning that
ext4_do_writepages() tries to start a transaction on frozen filesystem.
This happens because although all dirty data is properly written, jbd2
checkpointing code writes data through submit_bh() and as a result only
buffer dirty bits are cleared but page dirty bits stay set. Later when
the filesystem is frozen, writeback code comes, tries to write
supposedly dirty pages and the warning triggers. Fix the problem by
calling sync_filesystem() once more after flushing the whole journal to
clear stray page dirty bits.

Add support for writeback of journalled data directly into
ext4_writepages() instead of offloading it to write_cache_pages(). This
actually significantly simplifies the code and reduces code duplication.
For checkpointing of committed data we can use ext4_writepages()
rightaway the same way as writeback of ordered data uses it on
transaction commit. For journalling of dirty mapped pages, we need to
add a special case to mpage_prepare_extent_to_map() to add all page
buffers to the journal.

In case mpage_submit_page() returns error, it doesn't really matter
whether we call mpage_page_done() and then return error or whether we
return directly because in that case page cleanup will be done by
mpage_release_unused_pages() instead. Logically, it makes more sense to
leave the cleanup to mpage_release_unused_pages() because we didn't
succeed in writing the page. So move mpage_page_done() calls after the
error handling.

In data=journal mode, page should be dirtied only when it has buffers
for checkpoint or it is writeably mapped. In the first case, we don't
need to do anything special. In the second case, page was already added
to the journal by ext4_page_mkwrite() and since transaction commit
writeprotects mapped pages again, page should be writeable (and thus
dirtied) only while it is part of the running transaction. So nothing
needs to be done either. The only special case is when someone pins the
page and uses this pin for modifying page data. So recognize this
special case and only then mark the page as having data that needs
adding to the journal.

Fix the longstanding implementation limitation that fsverity was only
supported when the Merkle tree block size, filesystem block size, and
PAGE_SIZE were all equal. Specifically, add support for Merkle tree
block sizes less than PAGE_SIZE, and make ext4 support fsverity on
filesystems where the filesystem block size is less than PAGE_SIZE.
Effectively, this means that fsverity can now be used on systems with
non-4K pages, at least on ext4. These changes have been tested using
the verity group of xfstests, newly updated to cover the new code paths.
Also update fs/verity/ to support verifying data from large folios.
There's also a similar patch for fs/crypto/, to support decrypting data
from large folios, which I'm including in this pull request to avoid a
merge conflict between the fscrypt and fsverity branches.
There will be a merge conflict in fs/buffer.c with some of the foliation
work in the mm tree. Please use the merge resolution from linux-next.

In ext4_fill_super(), EXT4_ORPHAN_FS flag is cleared after
ext4_orphan_cleanup() is executed. Therefore, when __ext4_iget() is
called to get an inode whose i_nlink is 0 when the flag exists, no error
is returned. If the inode is a special inode, a null pointer dereference
may occur. If the value of i_nlink is 0 for any inodes (except boot loader
inodes) got by using the EXT4_IGET_SPECIAL flag, the current file system
is corrupted. Therefore, make the ext4_iget() function return an error if
it gets such an abnormal special inode.

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
ext4_update_bh_state. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction
in front of cmpxchg).
Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.
No functional change intended.

Patch series "Convert writepage_t to use a folio".
More folioisation. I split out the mpage work from everything else
because it completely dominated the patch, but some implementations I just
converted outright.
This patch (of 2):
We always write back an entire folio, but that's currently passed as the
head page. Convert all filesystems that use write_cache_pages() to expect
a folio instead of a page.

Try to make the filesystem-level decryption functions in fs/crypto/
aware of large folios. This includes making fscrypt_decrypt_bio()
support the case where the bio contains large folios, and making
fscrypt_decrypt_pagecache_blocks() take a folio instead of a page.
There's no way to actually test this with large folios yet, but I've
tested that this doesn't cause any regressions.
Note that this patch just handles *decryption*, not encryption which
will be a little more difficult.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap.
Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in
256c8aed2b ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts").
This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a
mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to
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
only operate on struct mnt_idmap.
