[PATCH 0/6] ext4: Add atomic write support for DIO

["Ritesh Harjani (IBM)" <ritesh.list@gmail.com>]

This series adds the base feature support to enable atomic writes in
direct-io path for ext4. We advertise the minimum and the maximum atomic
write unit sizes via statx on a regular file.

This series allows users to utilize atomic write support using -
1. on bs < ps systems via - mkfs.ext4 -F -b 16384 /dev/sda
2. on bs = ps systems via bigalloc - mkfs.ext4 -O bigalloc -F -b 4096 -C 65536 /dev/sda

This can then be utilized using -
	xfs_io -fdc "pwrite -V 1 -A -b16k 0 16k" /mnt/f1

This is built on top of John's DIO atomic write series for XFS [1].
The VFS and block layer enablement for atomic writes were merged already.

RFC -> PATCH:
- Dropped RFC tag
- Last RFC was posted a while ago but back then a lot of VFS and block layer
  interfaces were still not merged. Those are now merged, thanks to John and
  everyone else.
