Subject: [PATCH v3 00/25] iomap/xfs folio patches

This patchset converts XFS & iomap to use folios, and gets them to a
state where they can handle multi-page folios.  Applying these patches
is not yet sufficient to actually start using multi-page folios for
XFS; more page cache changes are needed.  I don't anticipate needing to
touch XFS again until we're at the point where we want to convert the
aops to be type-safe.  It completes an xfstests run with no unexpected
failures.

I think everything here has been posted before, but I want to get
acks/reviews on patch 15 in particular.  I'll send a pull request
for these patches tomorrow.

v3:
 - Rebased to -rc5, which removes the first four patches from v2.
 - Fixed passing lengths > PAGE_SIZE to iomap_write_begin().
v2:
 - Added review tags from Jens, Darrick & Christoph (thanks!)
 - Added folio_zero_* wrappers around zero_user_*()
 - Added a patch to rename AS_THP_SUPPORT
 - Added a patch to convert __block_write_begin_int() to take a folio
 - Split the iomap_add_to_ioend() patch into three
 - Updated changelog of bio_add_folio() (Jens)
 - Adjusted whitespace of bio patches (Christoph, Jens)
 - Improved changelog of readahead conversion to explain why the put_page()
   disappeared (Christoph)
 - Add a patch to zero an entire folio at a time, instead of limiting to
   a page
 - Switch pos & end_pos back to being u64 from loff_t
 - Call block_write_end() and ->page_done with the head page of the folio,
   as that's what those functions expect.
