Linus Torvalds 115bd364ab f2fs-for-7.3-rc1
In this round, key enhancements focus on reducing inode management memory
 overhead, introducing resizable tail sections with unified pinned allocation,
 and boosting I/O throughput via parallel multi-device flushes and asynchronous
 f2fs_write_end_io() execution. We also add dynamic device alias reservations to
 allow on-the-fly space donation from user partitions.
 
 Alongside these features, critical bug fixes resolve folio race conditions,
 lingering dirty flags, dentry and block counter leaks, and potential deadloops
 in f2fs_fsync_node_pages(). Additional stability patches address error-path
 handling across symlink, sync, and rename/unlink operations, prevent pinned file
 fragmentation, and correct segment migration and free section accounting in
 free_segment_range.
 
 Enhancement:
  - reduce memory footprint of ino management
  - support dynamic reserve/release for device aliasing
  - issue multi-device flushes in parallel
  - add a way to run f2fs_write_end_io() asynchronously
  - support resizable tail section and unify pinned allocation
 
 Bug fix:
  - fix to pass folio->index to f2fs_sanity_check_node_footer()
  - fix folio_nr_pages() race after put in large folio invalidate
  - fix to clear dirty flag on folio in error path
  - accurately adjust free_sections during free_segment_range
  - fix to avoid potential deadloop in f2fs_fsync_node_pages()
  - fix the error path in symlink, device alias in rename/unlink,
    f2fs_sync_fs,
  - fix to migrate all curseg types during free_segment_range
  - fix to avoid pinfile fragment on fragment:{block, segment} mode
  - fix valid block count leak on data block allocation failure
  - fix dentry folio leak in find_in_level
  - reject overlapping move range after len expansion
  - fix some bugs related to file pinning, GC functions, i_size.
 
 And, the series includes a number of minor bug fixes.
