Hi Linus,

Could you consider this pull request for 5.16-rc1?

There are some new features available for this cycle. Firstly, EROFS
LZMA algorithm support, specifically called MicroLZMA, is available
as an option for embedded devices, LiveCDs and/or as the secondary
auxiliary compression algorithm besides the primary algorithm in one
file.

In order to better support the LZMA fixed-sized output compression,
especially for 4KiB pcluster size (which has lowest memory pressure
thus useful for memory-sensitive scenarios), Lasse introduced a new
LZMA header/container format called MicroLZMA to minimize the original
LZMA1 header (for example, we don't need to waste 4-byte dictionary
size and another 8-byte uncompressed size, which can be calculated by
fs directly, for each pcluster.) and enable EROFS fixed-sized output
compression. Note that MicroLZMA can also be later used by other
things in addition to EROFS too where wasting minimal amount of space
for headers is important and it can be only compiled by enabling
XZ_DEC_MICROLZMA. MicroLZMA has been supported by the latest upstream
XZ embedded [1] & XZ utils [2], apply the latest related XZ embedded
upstream patches by the XZ author Lasse here.

Secondly, multiple device is also supported in this cycle, which is
designed for multi-layer container images. By working together with
inter-layer data deduplication and compression, we can achieve the
next high-performance container image solution. Our team will announce
the new Nydus container image service [3] implementation with new RAFS
v6 (EROFS-compatible) format in Open Source Summit 2021 China [4] soon.

Besides, the secondary compression head support and readmore
decompression strategy are also included in this cycle. There are also
some minor bugfixes and cleanups, as always.

All commits have been tested and have been in linux-next. This merges
cleanly with master.
