[ Upstream commit 5138c936c2c82c9be8883921854bc6f7e1177d8c ]

commit c06c303832ec ("ocfs2: fix xattr array entry __counted_by error")
doesn't handle all cases and the cleanup job for preserved xattr entries
still has bug:
- the 'last' pointer should be shifted by one unit after cleanup
  an array entry.
- current code logic doesn't cleanup the first entry when xh_count is 1.

Note, commit c06c303832ec is also a bug fix for 0fe9b66c65f3.

<title>ocfs2: fix kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain</title>

commit 039bef30e320827bac8990c9f29d2a68cd8adb5f upstream.

syzbot reported a kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain() because the
`cl_next_free_rec` field of the allocation chain list (next free slot in
the chain list) is 0, triggring the BUG_ON(!cl-&gt;cl_next_free_rec)
condition in ocfs2_find_victim_chain() and panicking the kernel.

To fix this, an if condition is introduced in ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits(),
just before calling ocfs2_find_victim_chain(), the code block in it being
executed when either of the following conditions is true:

1. `cl_next_free_rec` is equal to 0, indicating that there are no free
chains in the allocation chain list
2. `cl_next_free_rec` is greater than `cl_count` (the total number of
chains in the allocation chain list)

Either of them being true is indicative of the fact that there are no
chains left for usage.

This is addressed using ocfs2_error(), which prints
the error log for debugging purposes, rather than panicking the kernel.

<title>ocfs2: clear extent cache after moving/defragmenting extents</title>

<id>urn:sha1:78a63493f8e352296dbc7cb7b3f4973105e8679e</id>
<content type='text'>
The extent map cache can become stale when extents are moved or
defragmented, causing subsequent operations to see outdated extent flags. 
This triggers a BUG_ON in ocfs2_refcount_cal_cow_clusters().

The problem occurs when:
1. copy_file_range() creates a reflinked extent with OCFS2_EXT_REFCOUNTED
2. ioctl(FITRIM) triggers ocfs2_move_extents()
3. __ocfs2_move_extents_range() reads and caches the extent (flags=0x2)
4. ocfs2_move_extent()/ocfs2_defrag_extent() calls __ocfs2_move_extent()
   which clears OCFS2_EXT_REFCOUNTED flag on disk (flags=0x0)
5. The extent map cache is not invalidated after the move
6. Later write() operations read stale cached flags (0x2) but disk has
   updated flags (0x0), causing a mismatch
7. BUG_ON(!(rec-&gt;e_flags &amp; OCFS2_EXT_REFCOUNTED)) triggers

Fix by clearing the extent map cache after each extent move/defrag
operation in __ocfs2_move_extents_range().  This ensures subsequent
operations read fresh extent data from disk.

Pull vfs workqueue updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains various workqueue changes affecting the filesystem
  layer.

  Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work()
  the used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
  WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies
  to schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that
  makes use again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.

  This replaces the use of system_wq and system_unbound_wq. system_wq is
  a per-CPU workqueue which isn't very obvious from the name and
  system_unbound_wq is to be used when locality is not required.

  So this renames system_wq to system_percpu_wq, and system_unbound_wq
  to system_dfl_wq.

  This also adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to allow the fs subsystem users to
  explicitly request the use of per-CPU behavior. Both WQ_UNBOUND and
  WQ_PERCPU flags coexist for one release cycle to allow callers to
  transition their calls. WQ_UNBOUND will be removed in a next release
  cycle"
