Patch series "Add folio_zero_tail() and folio_fill_tail()". I'm trying to make it easier for filesystems with tailpacking / stuffing / inline data to use folios. The primary function here is folio_fill_tail(). You give it a pointer to memory where the data currently is, and it takes care of copying it into the folio at that offset. That works for gfs2 & iomap. Then There's Ext4. Rather than gin up some kind of specialist "Here's a two pointers to two blocks of memory" routine, just let it do its current thing, and let it call folio_zero_tail(), which is also called by folio_fill_tail(). Other filesystems can be converted later; these ones seemed like good examples as they're already partly or completely converted to folios. This patch (of 3): Instead of unmapping the folio after copying the data to it, then mapping it again to zero the tail, provide folio_zero_tail() to zero the tail of an already-mapped folio.

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.
