Merge patch series "Subject: sort out the fallocate mode mess"
Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> says: I've recently been looking at the XFS fallocate implementation and got upset about the messing parsing of the mode argument, which mixes modes and an optional flag in a really confusing way. This series tries to clean this up by better defining what is the operation mode and what is an optional flag, so that both the core code and file systems can use switch statements to switch on the mode. * patches from https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240827065123.1762168-1-hch@lst.de: xfs: refactor xfs_file_fallocate xfs: move the xfs_is_always_cow_inode check into xfs_alloc_file_space xfs: call xfs_flush_unmap_range from xfs_free_file_space fs: sort out the fallocate mode vs flag mess ext4: remove tracing for FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE_STALE block: remove checks for FALLOC_FL_NO_HIDE_STALE Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240827065123.1762168-1-hch@lst.deSigned-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
