Linus Torvalds 5664896ba2 f2fs-for-5.16-rc1
In this cycle, we've applied relatively small number of patches which fix subtle
 corner cases mainly, while introducing a new mount option to be able to fragment
 the disk intentionally for performance tests.
 
 Enhancement:
  - add a mount option to fragmente on-disk layout to understand the performance
  - support direct IO for multi-partitions
  - add a fault injection of dquot_initialize
 
 Bug fix:
  - address some lockdep complaints
  - fix a deadlock issue with quota
  - fix a memory tuning condition
  - fix compression condition to improve the ratio
  - fix disabling compression on the non-empty compressed file
  - invalidate cached pages before IPU/DIO writes
 
 And, we've added some minor clean-ups as usual.

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.
