    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull iomap updates from Christian Brauner:
    
     - Restore read-write hints in struct bio through the bi_write_hint
       member for the sake of UFS devices in mobile applications. This can
       result in up to 40% lower write amplification in UFS devices. The
       patch series that builds on this will be coming in via the SCSI
       maintainers (Bart)
    
     - Overhaul the iomap writeback code. Afterwards ->map_blocks() is able
       to map multiple blocks at once as long as they're in the same folio.
       This reduces CPU usage for buffered write workloads on e.g., xfs on
       systems with lots of cores (Christoph)
    
     - Record processed bytes in iomap_iter() trace event (Kassey)
    
     - Extend iomap_writepage_map() trace event after Christoph's
       ->map_block() changes to map mutliple blocks at once (Zhang)
