Linus Torvalds 9e1fd794cb Changes for Linux 5.1:
- Fix online fsck to handle inode btrees correctly on 64k block
   filesystems.
 - Teach online fsck to check directory and attribute names for invalid
   characters.
 - Miscellanous fixes for online fsck.
 - Introduce a new panic mask so that we can halt immediately on
   metadata corruption (for debugging purposes)
 - Fix a block mapping race during writeback.
 - Cache unlinked inode list backrefs in memory to speed up list
   processing.
 - Separate the bnobt/cntbt and inobt/finobt buffer verifiers so that we
   can detect crosslinked btrees.
 - Refactor magic number verification so that we can standardize it.
 - Strengthen ondisk metadata structure offset build time verification.
 - Fix a memory corruption problem in the listxattr code.
 - Fix a shutdown problem during log recovery due to unreserved finobt
   expansion.
 - Fix a referential integrity problem where O_TMPFILE inodes were put on
   the unlinked list with nlink > 0 which would cause asserts during log
   recovery if the system went down immediately.
 - Refactor the delayed allocation allocator to be more clever about the
   possibility that its mapping might be stale.
 - Various fixes to the copy on write mechanism.
 - Make CoW preallocation suitable for use even with writes that wouldn't
   otherwise require it.
 - Refactor an internal API.
 - Fix some statx implementation bugs.
 - Fix miscellaneous compiler and static checker complaints.

Merge tag 'xfs-5.1-merge-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
 "Here are a number of new features and bug fixes for 5.1

  They've undergone a week's worth of fstesting and merge cleanly with
  master as of this morning

  Most of the changes center on improving metadata validation and fixing
  problems with online fsck, though there's also a new cache to speed up
  unlinked inode handling and cleanup of the copy on write code in
  preparation for future features

  Changes for Linux 5.1:

   - Fix online fsck to handle inode btrees correctly on 64k block
     filesystems

   - Teach online fsck to check directory and attribute names for
     invalid characters

   - Miscellanous fixes for online fsck

   - Introduce a new panic mask so that we can halt immediately on
     metadata corruption (for debugging purposes)

   - Fix a block mapping race during writeback

   - Cache unlinked inode list backrefs in memory to speed up list
     processing

   - Separate the bnobt/cntbt and inobt/finobt buffer verifiers so that
     we can detect crosslinked btrees

   - Refactor magic number verification so that we can standardize it

   - Strengthen ondisk metadata structure offset build time verification

   - Fix a memory corruption problem in the listxattr code

   - Fix a shutdown problem during log recovery due to unreserved finobt
     expansion

   - Fix a referential integrity problem where O_TMPFILE inodes were put
     on the unlinked list with nlink > 0 which would cause asserts
     during log recovery if the system went down immediately

   - Refactor the delayed allocation allocator to be more clever about
     the possibility that its mapping might be stale

   - Various fixes to the copy on write mechanism

   - Make CoW preallocation suitable for use even with writes that
     wouldn't otherwise require it

   - Refactor an internal API

   - Fix some statx implementation bugs

   - Fix miscellaneous compiler and static checker complaints"
