Merge tag 'erofs-for-6.8-rc1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "In this cycle, we'd like to enable basic sub-page compressed data
  support for Android ecosystem (for vendors to try out 16k page size
  with 4k-block images in their compatibility mode) as well as container
  images (so that 4k-block images can be parsed on arm64 cloud servers
  using 64k page size.)

  In addition, there are several bugfixes and cleanups as usual. All
  commits have been in -next for a while and no potential merge conflict
  is observed.

  Summary:

   - Add basic sub-page compressed data support

   - Fix a memory leak on MicroLZMA and DEFLATE compression

   - Fix a rare LZ4 inplace decompression issue on recent x86 CPUs

   - Fix a KASAN issue reported by syzbot around crafted images

   - Some cleanups"

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.
