From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3 at huawei.com>

Changes in v3:
 - remove bdev_associated_mapping() and patch 12 from v1;
 - add kerneldoc comments for new bdev apis;
 - rename __bdev_get_folio() to bdev_get_folio;
 - fix a problem in erofs that erofs_init_metabuf() is not always
 called.
 - add reviewed-by tag for patch 15-17;
Changes in v2:
 - remove some bdev apis that is not necessary;
 - pass in offset for bdev_read_folio() and __bdev_get_folio();
 - remove bdev_gfp_constraint() and add a new helper in fs/buffer.c to
 prevent access bd_indoe() directly from mapping_gfp_constraint() in
 ext4.(patch 15, 16);
 - remove block_device_ejected() from ext4.


Patch 1 add some bdev apis, then follow up patches will use these apis
to avoid access bd_inode directly, and hopefully the field bd_inode can
be removed eventually(after figure out a way for fs/buffer.c).

Yu Kuai (17):
  block: add some bdev apis
  xen/blkback: use bdev api in xen_update_blkif_status()
  bcache: use bdev api in read_super()
  mtd: block2mtd: use bdev apis
  s390/dasd: use bdev api in dasd_format()
  scsicam: use bdev api in scsi_bios_ptable()
  bcachefs: remove dead function bdev_sectors()
  bio: export bio_add_folio_nofail()
  btrfs: use bdev apis
  cramfs: use bdev apis in cramfs_blkdev_read()
  erofs: use bdev api
  nilfs2: use bdev api in nilfs_attach_log_writer()
  jbd2: use bdev apis
  buffer: add a new helper to read sb block
  ext4: use new helper to read sb block
  ext4: remove block_device_ejected()
  ext4: use bdev apis
