Merge tag 'fscache-fixes-20220121' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs

Pull more fscache updates from David Howells:
 "A set of fixes and minor updates for the fscache rewrite:

   - Fix mishandling of volume collisions (the wait condition is
     inverted and so it was only waiting if the volume collision was
     already resolved).

   - Fix miscalculation of whether there's space available in
     cachefiles.

   - Make sure a default cache name is set on a cache if the user hasn't
     set one by the time they bind the cache.

   - Adjust the way the backing inode is presented in tracepoints, add a
     tracepoint for mkdir and trace directory lookup.

   - Add a tracepoint for failure to set the active file mark.

   - Add an explanation of the checks made on the backing filesystem.

   - Check that the backing filesystem supports tmpfile.

   - Document how the page-release cancellation of the read-skip
     optimisation works.

  And I've included a change for netfslib:

   - Make ops->init_rreq() optional"

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.
