Pull netfs fixes from David Howells:
"This contains patches to fix netfs_write_begin() and afs_write_end()
in the following ways:
(1) In netfs_write_begin(), extract the decision about whether to skip
a page out to its own helper and have that clear around the region
to be written, but not clear that region. This requires the
filesystem to patch it up afterwards if the hole doesn't get
completely filled.
(2) Use offset_in_thp() in (1) rather than manually calculating the
offset into the page.
(3) Due to (1), afs_write_end() now needs to handle short data write
into the page by generic_perform_write(). I've adopted an
analogous approach to ceph of just returning 0 in this case and
letting the caller go round again.
It also adds a note that (in the future) the len parameter may extend
beyond the page allocated. This is because the page allocation is
deferred to write_begin() and that gets to decide what size of THP to
allocate."
Jeff Layton points out:
"The netfs fix in particular fixes a data corruption bug in cephfs"
