Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
"I was auditing operations in XFS that clear file privileges, and
realized that XFS' fallocate implementation drops suid/sgid but
doesn't clear file capabilities the same way that file writes and
reflink do.
There are VFS helpers that do it correctly, so refactor XFS to use
them. I also noticed that we weren't flushing the log at the correct
point in the fallocate operation, so that's fixed too.
Summary:
- Fix fallocate so that it drops all file privileges when files are
modified instead of open-coding that incompletely.
- Fix fallocate to flush the log if the caller wanted synchronous
file updates"
* tag 'xfs-5.17-fixes-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux:
xfs: ensure log flush at the end of a synchronous fallocate call
xfs: move xfs_update_prealloc_flags() to xfs_pnfs.c
xfs: set prealloc flag in xfs_alloc_file_space()
xfs: fallocate() should call file_modified()
xfs: remove XFS_PREALLOC_SYNC
xfs: reject crazy array sizes being fed to XFS_IOC_GETBMAP*
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.
