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

Pull btrfs fixes from David Sterba:

 - zoned mode fixes:
     - fix slowdown when writing large file sequentially by looking up
       block groups with enough space faster
     - locking fixes when activating a zone

 - new mount API fixes:
     - preserve mount options for a ro/rw mount of the same subvolume

 - scrub fixes:
     - fix use-after-free in case the chunk length is not aligned to
       64K, this does not happen normally but has been reported on
       images converted from ext4
     - similar alignment check was missing with raid-stripe-tree

 - subvolume deletion fixes:
     - prevent calling ioctl on already deleted subvolume
     - properly track flag tracking a deleted subvolume

 - in subpage mode, fix decompression of an inline extent (zlib, lzo,
   zstd)

 - fix crash when starting writeback on a folio, after integration with
   recent MM changes this needs to be started conditionally

 - reject unknown flags in defrag ioctl

 - error handling, API fixes, minor warning fixes

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.
