Merge tag 'erofs-for-5.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "In this cycle, we continue converting to use meta buffers for all
  remaining uncompressed paths to prepare for the upcoming subpage,
  folio and fscache features.

  We also fixed a double-free issue when sysfs initialization fails,
  which was reported by syzbot.

  Besides, in order for the userspace to control per-file timestamp
  easier, we now switch to record mtime instead of ctime with a
  compatible feature marked. And there are also some code cleanups and
  documentation update as usual.

  Summary:

   - Avoid using page structure directly for all uncompressed paths

   - Fix a double-free issue when sysfs initialization fails

   - Complete DAX description for erofs

   - Use mtime instead since there's no (easy) way for users to control
     ctime

   - Several code cleanups"

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.
