Hi Linus,

Please pull these new changes to the iomap code for 5.9.  The most
notable changes are:

1) iomap no longer invalidate the page cache when performing a direct
read, since doing so is unnecessary and the old directio code doesn't do
that either.

2) iomap embraced the use of returning ENOTBLK from a direct write to
trigger falling back to a buffered write since ext4 already did this and
btrfs wants it for their port.

3) iomap falls back to buffered writes if we're doing a direct write and
the page cache invalidation after the flush fails; this was necessary to
handle a corner case in the btrfs port.

The branch merges cleanly with your HEAD branch as of 15m ago.  Please
let me know if there are any strange problems.

  iomap: fall back to buffered writes for invalidation failures (2020-07-23 22:45:59 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
New code for 5.9:
- Make sure we call ->iomap_end with a failure code if ->iomap_begin
  failed in any way; some filesystems need to try to undo things.
- Don't invalidate the page cache during direct reads since we already
  sync'd the cache with disk.
- Make direct writes fall back to the page cache if the pre-write
  cache invalidation fails.  This avoids a cache coherency problem.

that commit (d1b4f507d71de) contains the following garbage in the
commit message:

    The message from this sender included one or more files
    which could not be scanned for virus detection; do not
    open these files unless you are certain of the sender's intent.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

How did it come to that?

Thanks,
Andreas

Aha-- the effing Oracle email virus scanner doesn't run on mails coming
in via mailing lists (which is the copy that I keep in my archive) but
the copy that you sent direct to me /did/ get a virus scan, which failed
because it's too stupid to recognize plain text, so the virus scanner
injected its stupid warning *into the message body*, and then I git-am'd
that without noticing.

S'ok, they're moving us to Exchange soon, so I expect never to hear from
any of you ever again.
