Linus Torvalds c00c5e1d15 Fix some syzbot-detected bugs, as well as other bugs found by I/O
injection testing.  Change ext4's fallocate to update consistently
 drop set[ug]id bits when an fallocate operation might possibly change
 the user-visible contents of a file.  Also, improve handling of
 potentially invalid values in the the s_overhead_cluster superblock
 field to avoid ext4 returning a negative number of free blocks.

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.
