Merge tag 'vfs-6.19-rc1.writeback' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull writeback updates from Christian Brauner:
 "Features:

   - Allow file systems to increase the minimum writeback chunk size.

     The relatively low minimal writeback size of 4MiB means that
     written back inodes on rotational media are switched a lot. Besides
     introducing additional seeks, this also can lead to extreme file
     fragmentation on zoned devices when a lot of files are cached
     relative to the available writeback bandwidth.

     This adds a superblock field that allows the file system to
     override the default size, and sets it to the zone size for zoned
     XFS.

   - Add logging for slow writeback when it exceeds
     sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs. This helps identify tasks waiting
     for a long time and pinpoint potential issues. Recording the
     starting jiffies is also useful when debugging a crashed vmcore.

   - Wake up waiting tasks when finishing the writeback of a chunk

  Cleanups:

   - filemap_* writeback interface cleanups.

     Adding filemap_fdatawrite_wbc ended up being a mistake, as all but
     the original btrfs caller should be using better high level
     interfaces instead.

     This series removes all these low-level interfaces, switches btrfs
     to a more specific interface, and cleans up other too low-level
     interfaces. With this the writeback_control that is passed to the
     writeback code is only initialized in three places.

   - Remove __filemap_fdatawrite, __filemap_fdatawrite_range, and
     filemap_fdatawrite_wbc

   - Add filemap_flush_nr helper for btrfs

   - Push struct writeback_control into start_delalloc_inodes in btrfs

   - Rename filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick to filemap_flush_range

   - Stop opencoding filemap_fdatawrite_range in 9p, ocfs2, and mm

   - Make wbc_to_tag() inline and use it in fs"
