Merge tag 'v5.0-rc6' into for-5.1/block
Pull in 5.0-rc6 to avoid a dumb merge conflict with fs/iomap.c. This is needed since io_uring is now based on the block branch, to avoid a conflict between the multi-page bvecs and the bits of io_uring that touch the core block parts. * tag 'v5.0-rc6': (525 commits) Linux 5.0-rc6 x86/mm: Make set_pmd_at() paravirt aware MAINTAINERS: Update the ocores i2c bus driver maintainer, etc blk-mq: remove duplicated definition of blk_mq_freeze_queue Blk-iolatency: warn on negative inflight IO counter blk-iolatency: fix IO hang due to negative inflight counter MAINTAINERS: unify reference to xen-devel list x86/mm/cpa: Fix set_mce_nospec() futex: Handle early deadlock return correctly futex: Fix barrier comment net: dsa: b53: Fix for failure when irq is not defined in dt blktrace: Show requests without sector mips: cm: reprime error cause mips: loongson64: remove unreachable(), fix loongson_poweroff(). sit: check if IPv6 enabled before calling ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() geneve: should not call rt6_lookup() when ipv6 was disabled KVM: nVMX: unconditionally cancel preemption timer in free_nested (CVE-2019-7221) KVM: x86: work around leak of uninitialized stack contents (CVE-2019-7222) kvm: fix kvm_ioctl_create_device() reference counting (CVE-2019-6974) signal: Better detection of synchronous signals ...

+ * Set buffer ops on an unchecked buffer and validate it, if possible.
+ *
* If the caller passed in an ops structure and the buffer doesn't have ops
* assigned, set the ops and use them to verify the contents. If the contents
* cannot be verified, we'll clear XBF_DONE. We assume the buffer has no
* recorded errors and is already in XBF_DONE state.
+ *
+ * Under normal operations, every in-core buffer must have buffer ops assigned
+ * to them when the buffer is read in from disk so that we can validate the
+ * metadata.
+ *
+ * However, there are two scenarios where one can encounter in-core buffers
+ * that don't have buffer ops. The first is during log recovery of buffers on
+ * a V4 filesystem, though these buffers are purged at the end of recovery.
+ *
+ * The other is online repair, which tries to match arbitrary metadata blocks
+ * with btree types in order to find the root. If online repair doesn't match
+ * the buffer with /any/ btree type, the buffer remains in memory in DONE state
+ * with no ops, and a subsequent read_buf call from elsewhere will not set the
+ * ops. This function helps us fix this situation.
