Pull vfs pagecache updates from Christian Brauner:
"Cleanup filesystem page flag usage: This continues the work to make
the mappedtodisk/owner_2 flag available to filesystems which don't use
buffer heads. Further patches remove uses of Private2. This brings us
very close to being rid of it entirely"
* tag 'vfs-6.13.pagecache' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
migrate: Remove references to Private2
ceph: Remove call to PagePrivate2()
btrfs: Switch from using the private_2 flag to owner_2
mm: Remove PageMappedToDisk
nilfs2: Convert nilfs_copy_buffer() to use folios
fs: Move clearing of mappedtodisk to buffer.c
Most of the callers of wbc_account_cgroup_owner() are converting a folio
to page before calling the function. wbc_account_cgroup_owner() is
converting the page back to a folio to call mem_cgroup_css_from_folio().
Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio instead of a page,
and convert all callers to pass a folio directly except f2fs.
Convert the page to folio for all the callers from f2fs as they were the
only callers calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a page. As f2fs is
already in the process of converting to folios, these call sites might
also soon be calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a folio directly in
the future.
No functional changes. Only compile tested.

The mappedtodisk flag is only meaningful for buffer head based
filesystems. It should not be cleared for other filesystems. This allows
us to reuse the mappedtodisk flag to have other meanings in filesystems
that do not use buffer heads.

Pull iomap updates from Christian Brauner:
- Restore read-write hints in struct bio through the bi_write_hint
member for the sake of UFS devices in mobile applications. This can
result in up to 40% lower write amplification in UFS devices. The
patch series that builds on this will be coming in via the SCSI
maintainers (Bart)
- Overhaul the iomap writeback code. Afterwards ->map_blocks() is able
to map multiple blocks at once as long as they're in the same folio.
This reduces CPU usage for buffered write workloads on e.g., xfs on
systems with lots of cores (Christoph)
- Record processed bytes in iomap_iter() trace event (Kassey)
- Extend iomap_writepage_map() trace event after Christoph's
->map_block() changes to map mutliple blocks at once (Zhang)

Restore support for passing data lifetime information from filesystems to
block drivers. This patch reverts commit b179c98f76 ("block: Remove
request.write_hint") and commit c75e707fe1 ("block: remove the
per-bio/request write hint").
This patch does not modify the size of struct bio because the new
bi_write_hint member fills a hole in struct bio. pahole reports the
following for struct bio on an x86_64 system with this patch applied:
/* size: 112, cachelines: 2, members: 20 */
/* sum members: 110, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */

If try_to_free_buffers() succeeded and then folio_alloc_buffers() failed,
grow_dev_folio() would return success. This would be incorrect; memory
allocation failure is supposed to result in a failure. It's a harmless
bug; the caller will simply go around the loop one more time and
grow_dev_folio() will correctly return a failure that time. But it was an
unintended change and looks like a more serious bug than it is.
While I'm in here, improve the commentary about why we return success even
though we failed.

All callers are passing end_buffer_async_write as this argument, so we can

Both __block_write_full_folio() and block_read_full_folio() assumed that
block size <= PAGE_SIZE. Replace the shift with a divide, which is
probably cheaper than first calculating the shift. That lets us remove
block_size_bits() as these were the last callers.

When __block_write_begin_int() was converted to support folios, we did not
expect large folios to be passed to it. With the current work to support
large block size storage devices, this will no longer be true so change
the checks on 'from' and 'to' to be related to the size of the folio
instead of PAGE_SIZE. Also remove an assumption that the block size is
smaller than PAGE_SIZE.

If i_blkbits is larger than PAGE_SHIFT, we shift by a negative number,
which is undefined. It is safe to shift the block left as a block device
must be smaller than MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, which is guaranteed to fit in
loff_t.

We must not shift by a negative number so work in terms of a byte offset
to avoid the awkward shift left-or-right-depending-on-sign option. This
means we need to use check_mul_overflow() to ensure that a large block
number does not result in a wrap.

Patch series "More buffer_head cleanups", v2.
The first patch is a left-over from last cycle. The rest fix "obvious"
block size > PAGE_SIZE problems. I haven't tested with a large block size
setup (but I have done an ext4 xfstests run).
This patch (of 7):
Rename grow_dev_page() to grow_dev_folio() and make it return a bool.
Document what that bool means; it's more subtle than it first appears.
Also rename the 'failed' label to 'unlock' beacuse it's not exactly
'failed'. It just hasn't succeeded.

Patch series "Finish the create_empty_buffers() transition", v2.
Pankaj recently added folio_create_empty_buffers() as the folio equivalent
to create_empty_buffers(). This patch set finishes the conversion by
first converting all remaining filesystems to call
folio_create_empty_buffers(), then renaming it back to
create_empty_buffers(). I took the opportunity to make a few
simplifications like making folio_create_empty_buffers() return the head
buffer and extracting get_nth_bh() from nilfs2.
A few of the patches in this series aren't directly related to
create_empty_buffers(), but I saw them while I was working on this and
thought they'd be easy enough to add to this series. Compile-tested only,
other than ext4.
This patch (of 26):
Almost all callers want to know the first BH that was allocated for this
folio. We already have that handy, so return it.

grow_dev_page() is only called by grow_buffers(). grow_buffers() is only
called by __getblk_slow() and __getblk_slow() is only called from
__getblk_gfp(), so it is safe to move the GFP flags setting all the way
up. With that done, add a new bdev_getblk() entry point that leaves the
GFP flags the way the caller specified them.
