Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
 "We've got some big changes for this release -- I'm very happy to be
  landing willy's work to enable large folios for the page cache for
  general read and write IOs when the fs can make contiguous space
  allocations, and Ritesh's work to track sub-folio dirty state to
  eliminate the write amplification problems inherent in using large
  folios.

  As a bonus, io_uring can now process write completions in the caller's
  context instead of bouncing through a workqueue, which should reduce
  io latency dramatically. IOWs, XFS should see a nice performance bump
  for both IO paths.

  Summary:

   - Make large writes to the page cache fill sparse parts of the cache
     with large folios, then use large memcpy calls for the large folio.

   - Track the per-block dirty state of each large folio so that a
     buffered write to a single byte on a large folio does not result in
     a (potent...
