Pull erofs fixes from Gao Xiang:

 - fix an infinite loop issue of sub-page compressed data support found
   with lengthy stress tests on a 64k-page arm64 VM

 - optimize the temporary buffer allocation for low-memory scenarios,
   which can reduce 20.21% on average under a heavy multi-app launch
   benchmark workload

 - get rid of unnecessary GFP_NOFS

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.
