Merge tag 'xfs-5.7-fixes-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
 "The three commits here fix some livelocks and other clashes with
  fsfreeze, a potential corruption problem, and a minor race between
  processes freeing and allocating space when the filesystem is near
  ENOSPC.

  Summary:

   - Fix a partially uninitialized variable.

   - Teach the background gc threads to apply for fsfreeze protection.

   - Fix some scaling problems when multiple threads try to flush the
     filesystem when we're about to hit ENOSPC"

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.
