[PATCH v2 0/7] fs/buffer: split pagecache lookups into atomic or blocking

[Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net>]

Hello,

Changes from v1: rebased on top of vfs.fixes (Christian).

This is a respin of the series[0] to address the sleep in atomic scenarios for
noref migration with large folios, introduced in:

      3c20917120ce61 ("block/bdev: enable large folio support for large logical block sizes")

The main difference is that it removes the first patch and moves the fix (reducing
the i_private_lock critical region in the migration path) to the final patch, which
also introduces the new BH_Migrate flag. It also simplifies the locking scheme in
patch 1 to avoid folio trylocking in the atomic lookup cases. So essentially blocking
users will take the folio lock and hence wait for migration, and otherwise nonblocking
callers will bail the lookup if a noref migration is on-going. Blocking callers
will also benefit from potential performance gains by reducing contention on the
spinlock for bdev mappings.

Applies against latest vfs.fixes. Please consider for Linus' tree.

Patch 1: carves a path for callers that can block to take the folio lock.
Patch 2: adds sleeping flavors to pagecache lookups, no users.
Patches 3-6: converts to the new call, where possible.
Patch 7: does the actual sleep in atomic fix.

Thanks!
