[PATCH v2 0/9] netfs, cachefiles: Miscellaneous fixes

[David Howells]

Hi Christian,

Here are some miscellaneous fixes for netfslib and one for cachefiles, if
you could pick them up?

The first six are all in unbuffered/DIO write:

 (1) Fix an uninitialised return value from netfs_unbuffered_write().

 (2) Fix the normal error return, preferring partial transfer size over
     request error over immediate error (e.g. EINTR).

 (3) Fix the async error return, preferring partial transfer size over
     error.

 (4) Fix the update of i_size on partial transfer ending in an error.

 (5) Fix a subrequest leak in an error path.

 (6) Fix the code to handle subrequest allocation failure.

Then there's:

 (7) Fix synchronisation issues with using a progressive rolling buffer for
     readahead by fetching everything into it upfront so that the issues
     don't arise.  Dropping the refs so acquired is deferred until after
     I/O is begun.

 (8) Fix read progress reporting to avoid 64-bit tearing on a 32-bit
     machine.  This has been modified from the previous submission as part
     of a different series to take account of a sashiko reported issue[1].

 (9) Fix a potential UAF/KASAN warning reported by sashiko[1] in cachefiles
     in which the coherency data buffer is cast to a __be64* and
     dereferenced in a tracepoint - even though it might not be at least
     that large (or aligned).

The patches can also be found here:

Thanks,

Changes
=======
ver #2)
- Imported a patch to add subreq alloc failure handling in unbuffered/DIO
  write.
- Fixed a number of issues reported by Sashiko[2]:
  - Added four patches to fix bugs in unbuffered/DIO write.
  - Added a patch to fix readahead rolling buffer issues.
  - Fixed the cachefiles xattr stuff to use max() not min() when
    allocating.
  - Fixed the cachefiles trace comment with regard to alignment.
  - Fixed netfs_read_set_unlock_at() to use folioq_count(), not
