Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "This merge request includes the dax-4.0-iomap-pmd branch which is
  needed for both ext4 and xfs dax changes to use iomap for DAX. It also
  includes the fscrypt branch which is needed for ubifs encryption work
  as well as ext4 encryption and fscrypt cleanups.

  Lots of cleanups and bug fixes, especially making sure ext4 is robust
  against maliciously corrupted file systems --- especially maliciously
  corrupted xattr blocks and a maliciously corrupted superblock. Also
  fix ext4 support for 64k block sizes so it works well on ppcle. Fixed
  mbcache so we don't miss some common xattr blocks that can be merged"

 Filesystem support consists of
 - adding support to mark inodes as being DAX by setting the S_DAX flag in
   i_flags
-- implementing the direct_IO address space operation, and calling
-  dax_do_io() instead of blockdev_direct_IO() if S_DAX is set
+- implementing ->read_iter and ->write_iter operations which use dax_iomap_rw()
+  when inode has S_DAX flag set
 - implementing an mmap file operation for DAX files which sets the
   VM_MIXEDMAP and VM_HUGEPAGE flags on the VMA, and setting the vm_ops to
-  include handlers for fault, pmd_fault and page_mkwrite (which should
-  probably call dax_fault(), dax_pmd_fault() and dax_mkwrite(), passing the
-  appropriate get_block() callback)
-- calling dax_truncate_page() instead of block_truncate_page() for DAX files
-- calling dax_zero_page_range() instead of zero_user() for DAX files
+  include handlers for fault, pmd_fault, page_mkwrite, pfn_mkwrite. These
+  handlers should probably call dax_iomap_fault() (for fault and page_mkwrite
+  handlers), dax_iomap_pmd_fault(), dax_pfn_mkwrite() passing the appropriate
+  iomap operations.
+- calling iomap_zero_range() passing appropriate iomap operations instead of
+  block_truncate_page() for DAX files
 - ensuring that there is sufficient locking between reads, writes,
   truncates and page faults
 
-The get_block() callback passed to the DAX functions may return
-uninitialised extents.  If it does, it must ensure that simultaneous
-calls to get_block() (for example by a page-fault racing with a read()
-or a write()) work correctly.
+The iomap handlers for allocating blocks must make sure that allocated blocks
+are zeroed out and converted to written extents before being returned to avoid
+exposure of uninitialized data through mmap.
