Merge tag 'erofs-for-5.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs
Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
"In this cycle, we continue converting to use meta buffers for all
remaining uncompressed paths to prepare for the upcoming subpage,
folio and fscache features.
We also fixed a double-free issue when sysfs initialization fails,
which was reported by syzbot.
Besides, in order for the userspace to control per-file timestamp
easier, we now switch to record mtime instead of ctime with a
compatible feature marked. And there are also some code cleanups and
documentation update as usual.
Summary:
- Avoid using page structure directly for all uncompressed paths
- Fix a double-free issue when sysfs initialization fails
- Complete DAX description for erofs
- Use mtime instead since there's no (easy) way for users to control
ctime
- Several code cleanups"
