Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.overlay.acl.v5.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux

Pull acl updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Last cycle we introduced support for mounting overlayfs on top of
  idmapped mounts. While looking into additional testing we realized
  that posix acls don't really work correctly with stacking filesystems
  on top of idmapped layers.

  We already knew what the fix were but it would require work that is
  more suitable for the merge window so we turned off posix acls for
  v5.19 for overlayfs on top of idmapped layers with Miklos routing my
  patch upstream in 72a8e05d4f ("Merge tag 'ovl-fixes-5.19-rc7' [..]").

  This contains the work to support posix acls for overlayfs on top of
  idmapped layers. Since the posix acl fixes should use the new
  vfs{g,u}id_t work the associated branch has been merged in. (We sent a
  pull request for this earlier.)

  We've also pulled in Miklos pull request containing my patch to turn
  of posix acls on top of idmapped layers. This allowed us to avoid
  rebasing the branch which we didn't like because we were already at
  rc7 by then. Merging it in allows this branch to first fix posix acls
  and then to cleanly revert the temporary fix it brought in by commit
  4a47c6385b ("ovl: turn of SB_POSIXACL with idmapped layers
  temporarily").

  The last patch in this series adds Seth Forshee as a co-maintainer for
  idmapped mounts. Seth has been integral to all of this work and is
  also the main architect behind the filesystem idmapping work which
  ultimately made filesystems such as FUSE and overlayfs available in
  containers. He continues to be active in both development and review.
  I'm very happy he decided to help and he has my full trust. This
  increases the bus factor which is always great for work like this. I'm
  honestly very excited about this because I think in general we don't
  do great in the bringing on new maintainers department"

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.
