    Merge tag 'ext4_for_linux-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4

    Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:

     - Refactor code paths involved with partial block zero-out in
       prearation for converting ext4 to use iomap for buffered writes

     - Remove use of d_alloc() from ext4 in preparation for the deprecation
       of this interface

     - Replace some J_ASSERTS with a journal abort so we can avoid a kernel
       panic for a localized file system error

     - Simplify various code paths in mballoc, move_extent, and fast commit

     - Fix rare deadlock in jbd2_journal_cancel_revoke() that can be
       triggered by generic/013 when blocksize < pagesize

     - Fix memory leak when releasing an extended attribute when its value
       is stored in an ea_inode

     - Fix various potential kunit test bugs in fs/ext4/extents.c

     - Fix potential out-of-bounds access in check_xattr() with a corrupted
       file system

     - Make the jbd2_inode dirty range tracking safe for lockless reads

     - Avoid a WARN_ON when writeback files due to a corrupted file system;
       we already print an ext4 warning indicatign that data will be lost,
       so the WARN_ON is not necessary and doesn't add any new information
