* Add support so tune2fs can modify/update the superblock using an
ioctl, without needing write access to the block device.
* Add support for 32-bit reserved uid's and gid's.
Bug fixes:
* Fix potential warnings and other failures caused by corrupted / fuzzed
file systems.
* Fail unaligned direct I/O write with EINVAL instead of silently
falling back to buffered I/O
* Correectly handle fsmap queries for metadata mappings
* Avoid journal stalls caused by writeback throttling
* Add some missing GFP_NOFAIL flags to avoid potential deadlocks
under extremem memory pressure
Cleanups:
* Remove obsolete EXT3 Kconfigs

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 reStructuredText 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.
