[GIT PULL] Block fixes for 6.18-rc1

[GIT PULL] Block fixes for 6.18-rc1

[Jens Axboe]

Hi Linus,

Set of fixes for block that should go into the 6.18-rc1 kernel release.
This pull request contains:

- Don't include __GFP_NOWARN for loop worker allocation, as it already
  uses GFP_NOWAIT which has __GFP_NOWARN set already.

- Small series cleaning up the recent bio_iov_iter_get_pages() changes.

- loop fix for leaking the backing reference file, if validation fails.

- Update of a comment pertaining to disk/partition stat locking.

Please pull!
