Linus Torvalds c0927a7a53 New code for 6.3-rc1, part 2:
* Fix a deadlock in the free space allocator due to the AG-walking
    algorithm forgetting to follow AG-order locking rules.
  * Make the inode allocator prefer existing free inodes instead of
    failing to allocate new inode chunks when free space is low.
  * Set minleft correctly when setting allocator parameters for bmap
    changes.
  * Fix uninitialized variable access in the getfsmap code.
  * Make a distinction between active and passive per-AG structure
    references.  For now, active references are taken to perform some
    work in an AG on behalf of a high level operation; passive references
    are used by lower level code to finish operations started by other
    threads.  Eventually this will become part of online shrink.
  * Split out all the different allocator strategies into separate
    functions to move us away from design antipattern of filling out a
    huge structure for various differentish things and issuing a single
    function multiplexing call.
  * Various cleanups in the filestreams allocator code, which we might
    very well want to deprecate instead of continuing.
  * Fix a bug with the agi rotor code that was introduced earlier in this
    series.

Pull moar xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
 "This contains a fix for a deadlock in the allocator. It continues the
  slow march towards being able to offline AGs, and it refactors the
  interface to the xfs allocator to be less indirection happy.

  Summary:

   - Fix a deadlock in the free space allocator due to the AG-walking
     algorithm forgetting to follow AG-order locking rules

   - Make the inode allocator prefer existing free inodes instead of
     failing to allocate new inode chunks when free space is low

   - Set minleft correctly when setting allocator parameters for bmap
     changes

   - Fix uninitialized variable access in the getfsmap code

   - Make a distinction between active and passive per-AG structure
     references. For now, active references are taken to perform some
     work in an AG on behalf of a high level operation; passive
     references are used by lower level code to finish operations
     started by other threads. Eventually this will become part of

README

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.
