Hi,

please pull the following btrfs updates, thanks.

User visible changes:

- fall back to buffered write if direct io is done on a file that requires
checksums
- this avoids a problem with checksum mismatch errors, observed e.g. on
virtual images when writes to pages under writeback cause the checksum
mismatch reports
- this may lead to some performance degradation but currently the
recommended setup for VM images is to use the NOCOW file attribute that
also disables checksums

- fast/realtime zstd levels -15 to -1
- supported by mount options (compress=zstd:-5) and defrag ioctl
- improved speed, reduced compression ratio, check the commit for sample
measurements

- defrag ioctl extended to accept negative compression levels

- subpage mode
- remove warning when subpage mode is used, the feature is now reasonably
complete and tested
- in debug mode allow to create 2K b-tree nodes to allow testing subpage on
x86_64 with 4K pages too

Performance improvements:

- in send, better file path caching improves runtime (on sample load by -30%)

- on s390x with hardware zlib support prepare the input buffer in a better way
to get the best results from the acceleration

- minor speed improvement in encoded read, avoid memory allocation in
synchronous mode

Core:

- enable stable writes on inodes, replacing manually waiting for writeback
and allowing to skip that on inodes without checksums

- add last checks and warnings for out-of-band dirty writes to pages,
requiring a fixup ("fixup worker"), this should not be necessary since 5.8
where get_user_page() and pin_user_pages*() prevent this
- long history behind that, we'll be happy to remove the whole infrastructure
in the near future

- more folio API conversions and preparations for large folio support

- subpage cleanups and refactoring, split handling of data and metadata to
allow future support for large folios

- readpage works as block-by-block, no change for normal mode, this is
preparation for future subpage updates

- block group refcount fixes and hardening

- delayed iput fixes

- in zoned mode, fix zone activation on filesystem with missing devices

- cleanups:
- inode parameter cleanups
- path auto-freeing updates
- code flow simplifications in send
- redundant parameter cleanups
