guard_bio_eod() can truncate a segment in bio to allow it to do IO on
odd last sectors of a device.

It already checks if the IO starts past EOD, but it does not consider
the possibility of an IO request starting within device boundaries can
contain more than one segment past EOD.

In such cases, truncated_bytes can be bigger than PAGE_SIZE, and will
underflow bvec-&gt;bv_len.

Fix this by checking if truncated_bytes is lower than PAGE_SIZE.

This situation has been found on filesystems such as isofs and vfat,
which doesn't check the device size before mount, if the device is
smaller than the filesystem itself, a readahead on such filesystem,
which spans EOD, can trigger this situation, leading a call to
zero_user() with a wrong size possibly corrupting memory.

I didn't see any crash, or didn't let the system run long enough to
check if memory corruption will be hit somewhere, but adding
instrumentation to guard_bio_end() to check truncated_bytes size, was
enough to see the error.

The following script can trigger the error.

MNT=/mnt
IMG=./DISK.img
DEV=/dev/loop0

mkfs.vfat $IMG
mount $IMG $MNT
cp -R /etc $MNT &amp;&gt; /dev/null
umount $MNT

losetup -D

losetup --find --show --sizelimit 16247280 $IMG
mount $DEV $MNT

find $MNT -type f -exec cat {} + &gt;/dev/null

Kudos to Eric Sandeen for coming up with the reproducer above

Pull in 5.0-rc6 to avoid a dumb merge conflict with fs/iomap.c.
This is needed since io_uring is now based on the block branch,
to avoid a conflict between the multi-page bvecs and the bits
of io_uring that touch the core block parts.

Once multi-page bvec is enabled, the last bvec may include more than one
page, this patch use mp_bvec_last_segment() to truncate the bio.

When something let __find_get_block_slow() hit all_mapped path, it calls
printk() for 100+ times per a second. But there is no need to print same
message with such high frequency; it is just asking for stall warning, or
at least bloating log files.

This patch reduces frequency to up to once per a second, in addition to

One of the goals of this series is to remove a separate reference to
the css of the bio. This can and should be accessed via bio_blkcg(). In
this patch, wbc_init_bio() now requires a bio to have a device
associated with it.

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "The biggest part of this pull request is the revert of the blkcg
  cleanup series. It had one fix earlier for a stacked device issue, but
  another one was reported. Rather than play whack-a-mole with this,
  revert the entire series and try again for the next kernel release.

  Apart from that, only small fixes/changes.

  Summary:

   - Indentation fixup for mtip32xx (Colin Ian King)

   - The blkcg cleanup series revert (Dennis Zhou)

   - Two NVMe fixes. One fixing a regression in the nvme request
     initialization in this merge window, causing nvme-fc to not work.
     The other is a suspend/resume p2p resource issue (James, Keith)

   - Fix sg discard merge, allowing us to merge in cases where we didn't
     before (Jianchao Wang)

   - Call rq_qos_exit() after the queue is frozen, preventing a hang
     (Ming)

   - Fix brd queue setup, fixing an oops if we fail setting up all
     devices (Ming)"

This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception
bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the
adverse interactions.

The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].

Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
  structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
  at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
  more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
  its users.

  This patch set

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
  interested"
