Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)

We keep track of the start offset of the block group with the lowest start offset at fs_info->first_logical_byte. This requires explicitly updating that field every time we add, delete or lookup a block group to/from the red black tree at fs_info->block_group_cache_tree. Since the block group with the lowest start address happens to always be the one that is the leftmost node of the tree, we can use a red black tree that caches the left most node. Then when we need the start address of that block group, we can just quickly get the leftmost node in the tree and extract the start offset of that node's block group. This avoids the need to explicitly keep track of that address in the dedicated member fs_info->first_logical_byte, and it also allows the next patch in the series to switch the lock that protects the red black tree from a spin lock to a read/write lock - without this change it would be tricky because block group searches also update fs_info->first_logical_byte.

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.
