[PATCH 0/5] ext4: direct IO via iomap infrastructure

[Matthew Bobrowski <mbobrowski@mbobrowski.org>]

This patch series converts the ext4 direct IO code paths to make use of the
iomap infrastructure and removes the old buffer_head direct-io based
implementation. The result is that ext4 is converted to the newer framework
and that it may _possibly_ gain a performance boost for O_SYNC | O_DIRECT IO.

These changes have been tested using xfstests in both DAX and non-DAX modes
using various configurations i.e. 4k, dioread_nolock, dax.

Matthew Bobrowski (5):
  ext4: introduce direct IO read code path using iomap infrastructure
  ext4: move inode extension/truncate code out from ext4_iomap_end()
  iomap: modify ->end_io() calling convention
  ext4: introduce direct IO write code path using iomap infrastructure
  ext4: clean up redundant buffer_head direct IO code
