Merge tag 'for-6.16-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
 "Apart from numerous cleanups, there are some performance improvements
  and one minor mount option update. There's one more radix-tree
  conversion (one remaining), and continued work towards enabling large
  folios (almost finished).

  Performance:

   - extent buffer conversion to xarray gains throughput and runtime
     improvements on metadata heavy operations doing writeback (sample
     test shows +50% throughput, -33% runtime)

   - extent io tree cleanups lead to performance improvements by
     avoiding unnecessary searches or repeated searches

   - more efficient extent unpinning when committing transaction
     (estimated run time improvement 3-5%)

  User visible changes:

   - remove standalone mount option 'nologreplay', deprecated in 5.9,
     replacement is 'rescue=nologreplay'

   - in scrub, update reporting, add back device stats message after
     detected errors (accidentally removed during recent refactoring)

  Core:

   - convert extent buffer radix tree to xarray

   - in subpage mode, move block perfect compression out of experimental
     build

   - in zoned mode, introduce sub block groups to allow managing special
     block groups, like the one for relocation or tree-log, to handle
     some corner cases of ENOSPC

   - in scrub, simplify bitmaps for block tracking status

   - continued preparations for large folios:
       - remove assertions for folio order 0
       - add support where missing: compression, buffered write, defrag,
         hole punching, subpage, send

   - fix fsync of files with no hard links not persisting deletion

   - reject tree blocks which are not nodesize aligned, a precaution
     from 4.9 times

   - move transaction abort calls closer to the error sites

   - remove usage of some struct bio_vec internals

   - simplifications in extent map

   - extent IO cleanups and optimizations

   - error handling improvements

   - enhanced ASSERT() macro with optional format strings

   - cleanups:
       - remove unused code
       - naming unifications, dropped __, added prefix
       - merge similar functions
       - use common helpers for various data structures"

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 reStructuredText 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.
