Merge tag 'xfs-6.3-fixes-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
 "This batch started with some debugging enhancements to the new
  allocator refactoring that we put in 6.3-rc1 to assist developers in
  rebasing their dev branches.

  As for more serious code changes -- there's a bug fix to make the
  lockless allocator scan the whole filesystem before resorting to the
  locking allocator. We're also adding a selftest for the venerable
  directory/xattr hash function to make sure that it produces consistent
  results so that we can address any fallout as soon as possible.

   - Add a few debugging assertions so that people (me) trying to port
     code to the new allocator functions don't mess up the caller
     requirements

   - Relax some overly cautious lock ordering enforcement in the new
     allocator code, which means that file allocations will locklessly
     scan for the best space they can get before backing off to the
     traditional lock-and-really-get-it behavior

   - Add tracepoints to make it easier to trace the xfs allocator
     behavior

   - Actually test the dir/xattr hash algorithm to make sure it produces
     consistent results across all the platforms XFS supports"
