ext4: fix checks for orphan inodes (2025-09-26 08:36:08 -0400)
----------------------------------------------------------------
New ext4 features:
* Add support so tune2fs can modify/update the superblock using an
ioctl, without needing write access to the block device.
* Add support for 32-bit reserved uid's and gid's.
Bug fixes:
* Fix potential warnings and other failures caused by corrupted / fuzzed
file systems.
* Fail unaligned direct I/O write with EINVAL instead of silently
falling back to buffered I/O
* Correectly handle fsmap queries for metadata mappings
* Avoid journal stalls caused by writeback throttling
* Add some missing GFP_NOFAIL flags to avoid potential deadlocks
under extremem memory pressure
Cleanups:
* Remove obsolete EXT3 Kconfigs
