Pull fscache fixes from David Howells:
"Here's a collection of fscache and cachefiles fixes and misc small
cleanups. The two main fixes are:
- Add a missing unmark of the inode in-use mark in an error path.
- Fix a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds error when setting the xattr on a
cachefiles volume due to the wrong length being given to memcpy().
In addition, there's the removal of an unused parameter, removal of an
unused Kconfig option, conditionalising a bit of procfs-related stuff
and some doc fixes"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
