Merge tag 'xfs-6.4-rc5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner:
 "These are a set of regression fixes discovered on recent kernels. I
  was hoping to send this to you a week and half ago, but events out of
  my control delayed finalising the changes until early this week.

  Whilst the diffstat looks large for this stage of the merge window, a
  large chunk of it comes from moving the guts of one function from one
  file to another i.e. it's the same code, it is just run in a different
  context where it is safe to hold a specific lock. Otherwise the
  individual changes are relatively small and straigtht forward.

  Summary:

   - Propagate unlinked inode list corruption back up to log recovery
     (regression fix)

   - improve corruption detection for AGFL entries, AGFL indexes and
     XEFI extents (syzkaller fuzzer oops report)

   - Avoid double perag reference release (regression fix)

   - Improve extent merging detection in scrub (regression fix)

   - Fix a new undefined high bit shift (regression fix)

   - Fix for AGF vs inode cluster buffer deadlock (regression fix)"

* tag 'xfs-6.4-rc5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux:
  xfs: collect errors from inodegc for unlinked inode recovery
  xfs: validate block number being freed before adding to xefi
  xfs: validity check agbnos on the AGFL
  xfs: fix agf/agfl verification on v4 filesystems
  xfs: fix double xfs_perag_rele() in xfs_filestream_pick_ag()
  xfs: fix broken logic when detecting mergeable bmap records
  xfs: Fix undefined behavior of shift into sign bit
  xfs: fix AGF vs inode cluster buffer deadlock
  xfs: defered work could create precommits
  xfs: restore allocation trylock iteration
  xfs: buffer pins need to hold a buffer reference

+ * state updates, format conversions, verifier state synchronisation and
+ * ensuring the inode buffer remains in memory whilst the inode is dirty.
+ *
+ * We have to be careful when we grab the inode cluster buffer due to lock
+ * ordering constraints. The unlinked inode modifications (xfs_iunlink_item)
+ * require AGI -> inode cluster buffer lock order. The inode cluster buffer is
+ * not locked until ->precommit, so it happens after everything else has been
+ * modified.
+ *
+ * Further, we have AGI -> AGF lock ordering, and with O_TMPFILE handling we
+ * have AGI -> AGF -> iunlink item -> inode cluster buffer lock order. Hence we
+ * cannot safely lock the inode cluster buffer in xfs_trans_log_inode() because
+ * it can be called on a inode (e.g. via bumplink/droplink) before we take the
+ * AGF lock modifying directory blocks.
+ *
+ * Rather than force a complete rework of all the transactions to call
+ * xfs_trans_log_inode() once and once only at the end of every transaction, we
+ * move the pinning of the inode cluster buffer to a ->precommit operation. This
+ * matches how the xfs_iunlink_item locks the inode cluster buffer, and it
+ * ensures that the inode cluster buffer locking is always done last in a
+ * transaction. i.e. we ensure the lock order is always AGI -> AGF -> inode
+ * cluster buffer.
+ *
+ * If we return the inode number as the precommit sort key then we'll also
+ * guarantee that the order all inode cluster buffer locking is the same all the
+ * inodes and unlink items in the transaction.
