This series expands atomic write support to filesystems, specifically
XFS.

Flag FS_XFLAG_ATOMICWRITES is added as an enabling flag for atomic writes.

XFS can be formatted for atomic writes as follows:
mkfs.xfs  -i atomicwrites=1 -b size=16384 /dev/sda

Support can be enabled through xfs_io command:
$xfs_io -c "chattr +W" filename
$xfs_io -c "lsattr -v" filename
[atomic-writes] filename
$xfs_io -c statx filename
...
stat.stx_atomic_write_unit_min = 16384
stat.stx_atomic_write_unit_max = 16384
stat.stx_atomic_write_segments_max = 1
...

Dependence on forcealign is gone for the moment. This means that we can
only write a single FS block atomically. Since we can now have FS block
size > PAGE_SIZE for XFS, we can write atomically write > 4K blocks on
x86.

Using the large FS block size has downsides, so we still want the
forcealign feature.

Baseline is v6.12-rc1

Basic xfsprogs support at:
https://github.com/johnpgarry/xfsprogs-dev/tree/atomic-writes-v6

Patches for this series can be found at:
https://github.com/johnpgarry/linux/tree/atomic-writes-v6.12-fs-v6

Changes since v5:
- Drop forcealign dependency
- Can support atomically writing a single FS block
- XFS_DIFLAG2_ATOMICWRITES is inherited from parent directories
- Add RB tags from Darrick (thanks!)

Changes since v4:
- Drop iomap extent-based zeroing and use single bio to cover multiple
  extents
- Move forcealign to another series
- Various change in ioctl, sb, inode validation
- Add patch to tweak generic_atomic_write_valid() API
