Convert mpage to folios and adjust accounting for the number of blocks
within a folio instead of a single page. This also adjusts the number
of pages we should process to be the size of the folio to ensure we
always read a full folio.
Note that the page cache code already ensures do_mpage_readpage() will
work with folios respecting the address space min order, this ensures
that so long as folio_size() is used for our requirements mpage will
also now be able to process block sizes larger than the page size.

Most of the callers of wbc_account_cgroup_owner() are converting a folio
to page before calling the function. wbc_account_cgroup_owner() is
converting the page back to a folio to call mem_cgroup_css_from_folio().
Convert wbc_account_cgroup_owner() to take a folio instead of a page,
and convert all callers to pass a folio directly except f2fs.
Convert the page to folio for all the callers from f2fs as they were the
only callers calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a page. As f2fs is
already in the process of converting to folios, these call sites might
also soon be calling wbc_account_cgroup_owner() with a folio directly in
the future.
No functional changes. Only compile tested.

Restore support for passing data lifetime information from filesystems to
block drivers. This patch reverts commit b179c98f76 ("block: Remove
request.write_hint") and commit c75e707fe1 ("block: remove the
per-bio/request write hint").
This patch does not modify the size of struct bio because the new
bi_write_hint member fills a hole in struct bio. pahole reports the
following for struct bio on an x86_64 system with this patch applied:
/* size: 112, cachelines: 2, members: 20 */

Some architectures support a very large PAGE_SIZE, so instead of the 8
pointers we see with a 4kB PAGE_SIZE, we can see 128 pointers with 64kB or
so many on Hexagon that it trips compiler warnings about exceeding stack
frame size.
All we're doing with this array is checking for block contiguity, which we
can as well do by remembering the address of the first block in the page
and checking this block is at the appropriate offset from that address.

Patch series "Clean up the writeback paths".
Most of these patches verge on the trivial, converting filesystems that
just use block_write_full_page() to use mpage_writepages(). But as we saw
with Christoph's earlier patchset, there can be some "interesting"
gotchas, and I clearly haven't tested the majority of filesystems I've
touched here.
Patches 3 & 4 get rid of a lot of stack usage on architectures with larger
page sizes; 1024 bytes on 64-bit systems with 64KiB pages. It starts to
open the door to larger folio sizes on all architectures, but it's
certainly not enough yet.
Patch 14 is kind of trivial, but it's nice to get that simplification in.
This patch (of 14):
This function has been unused since the removal of bdev_write_page().

Patch series "remove ->rw_page".
This series removes the ->rw_page block_device_operation, which is an old
and clumsy attempt at a simple read/write fast path for the block layer.
It isn't actually used by the fastest block layer operations that we
support (polled I/O through io_uring), but only used by the mpage buffered
I/O helpers which are some of the slowest I/O we have and do not make any
difference there at all, and zram which is a block device abused to
duplicate the zram functionality.
Given that zram is heavily used we need to make sure there is a good
replacement for synchronous I/O, so this series adds a new flag for
drivers that complete I/O synchronously and uses that flag to use on-stack
bios and synchronous submission for them in the swap code.
This patch (of 7):
These are micro-optimizations for synchronous I/O, which do not matter
compared to all the other inefficiencies in the legacy buffer_head based
mpage code.

When filesystem's ->get_block function does not map the buffer head when
called from __mpage_writepage(), the function will happily go and pass
bogus bdev and block number to bio allocation routines which leads to
crashes sooner or later. E.g. UDF can do this because it doesn't want to
allocate blocks from ->writepages callbacks. It allocates blocks on
write or page fault but writeback can still spot dirty buffers without
underlying blocks allocated e.g. if blocksize < pagesize, the tail page
is dirtied (which means all its buffers are dirtied), and truncate
extends the file so that some buffer starts to be within i_size.

Commit 85a8ce62c2 ("block: add bio_truncate to fix guard_bio_eod")
adds bio_truncate() for handling bio EOD. However, bio_truncate()
doesn't use the passed 'op' parameter from guard_bio_eod's callers.
So bio_trunacate() may retrieve wrong 'op', and zering pages may
not be done for READ bio.
Fixes this issue by moving guard_bio_eod() after bio_set_op_attrs()
in submit_bh_wbc() so that bio_truncate() can always retrieve correct
op info.
Meantime remove the 'op' parameter from guard_bio_eod() because it isn't
used any more.
