Patches in the vfs.misc branch should appear in linux-next soon. Please report any outstanding bugs that were missed during review in a new review to the original patch series allowing us to drop it. It's encouraged to provide Acked-bys and Reviewed-bys even though the patch has now been applied. If possible patch trailers will be updated. Note that commit hashes shown below are subject to change due to rebase, trailer updates or similar.

In an effort to address slab fragmentation issues reported a few months ago, I've replaced the use of xarrays for the directory offset map in "simple" file systems (including tmpfs). Thanks to Liam Howlett for helping me get this working with Maple Trees. I don't have the facilities to re-run the performance tests that identified the original regression. Oliver, Feng, can you please pass this series to the kernel robot? These patches are also available from: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux.git in the "simple-offset-maple" branch. Changes since RFC: - Rewrote and moved "Re-arrange locking" to the front of the series - Squashed the "so_ctx" clean-ups into the other patches - Clarified some patch descriptions --- Chuck Lever (5): libfs: Re-arrange locking in offset_iterate_dir() libfs: Define a minimum directory offset libfs: Add simple_offset_empty() maple_tree: Add mtree_alloc_cyclic() libfs: Convert simple directory offsets to use a Maple Tree Liam R.
