Merge tag 'iomap-5.5-merge-11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
 "In this release, we hoisted as much of XFS' writeback code into iomap
  as was practicable, refactored the unshare file data function, added
  the ability to perform buffered io copy on write, and tweaked various
  parts of the directio implementation as needed to port ext4's directio
  code (that will be a separate pull).

  Summary:

   - Make iomap_dio_rw callers explicitly tell us if they want us to
     wait

   - Port the xfs writeback code to iomap to complete the buffered io
     library functions

   - Refactor the unshare code to share common pieces

   - Add support for performing copy on write with buffered writes

   - Other minor fixes

   - Fix unchecked return in iomap_bmap

   - Fix a type casting bug in a ternary statement in
     iomap_dio_bio_actor

   - Improve tracepoints for easier diagnostic ability

   - Fix pipe page leakage in directio reads"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
