Pull gfs2 fixes from Andreas Gruenbacher:
"We've finally identified commit dc732906c2 ("gfs2: Introduce flag
for glock holder auto-demotion") to be the other cause of the
filesystem corruption we've been seeing. This feature isn't strictly
necessary anymore, so we've decided to stop using it for now.
With this and the gfs_iomap_end rounding fix you've already seen
("gfs2: Fix filesystem block deallocation for short writes" in this
pull request), we're corruption free again now.
- Fix filesystem block deallocation for short writes.
- Stop using glock holder auto-demotion for now.
- Get rid of buffered writes inefficiencies due to page faults being
disabled.
- Minor other cleanups"

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.
