Linus Torvalds b1e243957e Merge tag 'for-5.1-part1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux
Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
 "This contains usual mix of new features, core changes and fixes; full
  list below. I'm planning second pull request, with a few more fixes
  that arrived recently but too close to merge window, will send it next
  week.

  New features:

   - support zstd compression levels

   - new ioctl to unregister a device from the module (ie. reverse of
     device scan)

   - scrub prints a message to log when it's about to start or finish

  Core changes:

   - qgroups can now skip part of a tree that does not get updated
     during relocation, because this does not affect the quota
     accounting, estimated speedup in run time is about 20%

   - the compression workspace management had to be enhanced due to zstd
     requirements

   - various enospc fixes, when there's high fragmentation the
     over-reservation can cause ENOSPC that might not happen after a
     flush, in such cases try to wait if the situation improves

  Fixes:

   - various ioctls could overwrite previous return value if
     copy_to_user fails, fix this so the original error is reported

   - more reclaim vs GFP_KERNEL fixes

   - other cleanups and refactoring

   - fix a (valid) lockdep warning in a test when device replace is
     destroying worker threads

   - make qgroup async transaction commit more aggressive, this avoids
     some 'quota limit reached' errors if there are not enough data to
     trigger transaction in order to flush

   - fix deadlock between snapshot deletion and quotas when backref
     walking is called from context that already holds the same locks

   - fsync fixes:
      - fix fsync after succession of renames of different files
      - fix fsync after succession of renames and unlink/rmdir"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
