Subject: [GIT PULL] iomap: small cleanups for 5.5

Hi Linus,

Please pull this series containing some more new iomap code for 5.5.
There's not much this time -- just removing some local variables that
don't need to exist in the iomap directio code.

The branch merges cleanly against this morning's HEAD and survived a few
days' worth of xfstests.  The merge was completely straightforward, so
please let me know if you run into anything weird(er than my dorky tag
message).

--D

  iomap: remove unneeded variable in iomap_dio_rw() (2019-11-26 09:28:47 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
New code for 5.5:
- 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
- Clean up iter usage in directio paths
