Christoph has kindly taken over from me, although we might want to redo
patch 13 on that infrastructure rather than using write_cache_pages().
That can be a later addition.
Most of these patches verge on the trivial, converting filesystems that
just use block_write_full_page() to use mpage_writepages(). But as we
saw with Christoph's earlier patchset, there can be some "interesting"
gotchas, and I clearly haven't tested the majority of filesystems I've
touched here.
Patches 3 & 4 get rid of a lot of stack usage on architectures with
larger page sizes; 1024 bytes on 64-bit systems with 64KiB pages.
It starts to open the door to larger folio sizes on all architectures,
but it's certainly not enough yet.
Patch 14 is kind of trivial, but it's nice to get that simplification in.
Series looks good to me:
