Merge tag 'xfs-5.20-merge-6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux
Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"The biggest changes for this release are the log scalability
improvements, lockless lookups for the buffer cache, and making the
attr fork a permanent part of the incore inode in preparation for
directory parent pointers.
There's also a bunch of bug fixes that have accumulated since -rc5. I
might send you a second pull request with some more bug fixes that I'm
still working on.
Once the merge window ends, I will hand maintainership back to Dave
Chinner until the 6.1-rc1 release so that I can conduct the design
review for the online fsck feature, and try to get it merged.
