Merge tag 'hole_punch_for_v5.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs

Pull fs hole punching vs cache filling race fixes from Jan Kara:
 "Fix races leading to possible data corruption or stale data exposure
  in multiple filesystems when hole punching races with operations such
  as readahead.

  This is the series I was sending for the last merge window but with
  your objection fixed - now filemap_fault() has been modified to take
  invalidate_lock only when we need to create new page in the page cache
  and / or bring it uptodate"

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
