Pull GFS2 updates from Bob Peterson: "We've got 30 patches for this merge window. These generally fall into five categories: - code cleanups - patches related to adding PUNCH_HOLE support to GFS2 - support for new fields in resource group headers - a few bug fixes - support for new fields in journal log headers. These new fields, which were previously unused, are designed to make it easier to track down file system corruption, and allow fsck.gfs2 to make more intelligent decisions when finding and fixing file system corruption. Details: - Two patches from Abhi Das, to trim the ordered writes list, which used to grow uncontrollably until unmount. - Several patches from Andreas Gruenbacher: remove an unused parameter from function gfs2_write_jdata_pagevec, remove a pointless BUG_ON, clean up an error patch in trunc_start, remove some unused parameters from truncate, make gfs2_journaled_truncate more efficient, clean up the support functions for truncate, fix metadata read-ahead for truncate to make it faster, fix up the non-recursive truncate code, rework and rename gfs2_block_truncate_page, generalize the non-recursive truncate code so it can take a range of values for punch_hole support, introduce new PUNCH_HOLE support that take advantage of the previous patches, add fallocate support with PUNCH_HOLE, fix some typos in the comments, add the function gfs2_max_stuffed_size to replace a piece of code that was needlessly repeated throughout GFS2, a minor cleanup to function gfs2_page_add_databufs, get rid of function gfs2_log_header_in in preparation for the new log header fields, and also fix up some missing newlines in kernel messages. - Andy Price added a new field to resource groups to indicate where the next one should be, to allow fsck.gfs2 to make better repairs. He also added new rindex fields for consistency checking, and added a crc field to resource group headers for consistency checking. - I reduced redundancy in functions common to freeing dinodes, and when writing log headers between the journalling code and journal recovery code. Also added new fields to journal log headers based on a prototype from Steve Whitehouse, and log the source of journal log headers so we can better track down journal corruption. Minor comment typo fix and a fix for a BUG in an unlink error path. - Steve Whitehouse contributed a patch to fix an incorrect use of the gfs2_blk2rgrpd function. - Tetsuo Handa contributed a patch that fixes incorrect error handling in function init_gfs2_fs" * tag 'gfs2-4.16.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2: (30 commits) gfs2: Add a few missing newlines in messages gfs2: Remove inode from ordered write list in gfs2_write_inode() GFS2: Don't try to end a non-existent transaction in unlink GFS2: Fix minor comment typo GFS2: Log the reason for log flushes in every log header GFS2: Introduce new gfs2_log_header_v2 gfs2: Get rid of gfs2_log_header_in gfs2: Minor gfs2_page_add_databufs cleanup gfs2: Add gfs2_max_stuffed_size gfs2: Typo fixes gfs2: Implement fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) gfs2: Turn trunc_dealloc into punch_hole gfs2: Generalize truncate code Turn gfs2_block_truncate_page into gfs2_block_zero_range gfs2: Improve non-recursive delete algorithm gfs2: Fix metadata read-ahead during truncate gfs2: Clean up {lookup,fillup}_metapath gfs2: Remove minor gfs2_journaled_truncate inefficiencies gfs2: truncate: Remove unnecessary oldsize parameters gfs2: Clean up trunc_start error path ...
