From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>

This patchset is, I believe, appropriate for merging for 4.17.
It contains the XArray implementation, to eventually replace the radix
tree, and converts the page cache to use it.

Improvements the XArray has over the radix tree:

 - The radix tree provides operations like other trees do; 'insert' and
   'delete'.  But what most users really want is an automatically resizing
   array, and so it makes more sense to give users an API that is like
   an array -- 'load' and 'store'.  We still have an 'insert' operation
   for users that really want that semantic.
 - Locking is part of the API.  This simplifies a lot of users who
   formerly had to manage their own locking just for the radix tree.
   It also improves code generation as we can now tell RCU that we're
   holding a lock and it doesn't need to generate as much fencing code.
   The other advantage is that tree nodes can be moved (not yet
   implemented).
 - GFP flags are now parameters to calls which may need to allocate
   memory.  The radix tree forced users to decide what the allocation
   flags would be at creation time.  It's much clearer to specify them
   at allocation time.
 - Memory is not preloaded; we don't tie up dozens of pages on the
   off chance that the slab allocator fails.  Instead, we drop the lock,
   allocate a new node and retry the operation.
 - The XArray provides a cmpxchg operation.  The radix tree forces users
   to roll their own (and at least four have).
 - Iterators take a 'max' parameter.  That simplifies many users and
   will reduce the amount of iteration done.
 - Iteration can proceed backwards.  We only have one user for this, but
   since it's called as part of the pagefault readahead algorithm, that
   seemed worth mentioning.
 - RCU-protected pointers are not exposed as part of the API.  There are
   some fun bugs where the page cache forgets to use rcu_dereference()
   in the current codebase.
 - Value entries gain an extra bit compared to radix tree exceptional
   entries.  That gives us the extra bit we need to put huge page swap
   entries in the page cache.
 - Some iterators now take a 'filter' argument instead of having
   separate iterators for tagged/untagged iterations.

This conversion keeps the radix tree and XArray data structures in sync
at all times.  That allows us to convert the page cache one function at
a time and should allow for easier bisection.

The page cache is improved by this:
 - Shorter, easier to read code
 - More efficient iterations
 - Reduction in size of struct address_space
 - Fewer walks from the top of the data structure; the XArray API
   encourages staying at the leaf node and conducting operations there.
