Merge tag 'erofs-for-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs

Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "In this cycle, inode page cache sharing among filesystems on the same
  machine is now supported, which is particularly useful for
  high-density hosts running tens of thousands of containers.

  In addition, we fully isolate the EROFS core on-disk format from other
  optional encoded layouts since the core on-disk part is designed to be
  simple, effective, and secure. Users can use the core format to build
  unique golden immutable images and import their filesystem trees
  directly from raw block devices via DMA, page-mapped DAX devices,
  and/or file-backed mounts without having to worry about unnecessary
  intrinsic consistency issues found in other generic filesystems by
  design. However, the full vision is still working in progress and will
  spend more time to achieve final goals.

  There are other improvements and bug fixes as usual, as listed below:

   - Support inode page cache sharing among filesystems

   - Formally separate optional encoded (aka compressed) inode layouts
     (and the implementations) from the EROFS core on-disk aligned plain
     format for future zero-trust security usage

   - Improve performance by caching the fact that an inode does not have
     a POSIX ACL

   - Improve LZ4 decompression error reporting

   - Enable LZMA by default and promote DEFLATE and Zstandard algorithms
     out of EXPERIMENTAL status

   - Switch to inode_set_cached_link() to cache symlink lengths

   - random bugfixes and minor cleanups"
