Re: [GIT PULL] f2fs update for 5.16-rc1

[Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>]

So question on the direct I/O code.  The perfectly fine iomap code
wasn't merged because of the pre-existing stale data exposure issuewith
f2fs direct I/O low-level implementation.  This doesn't seem to be fixed
or even worked around, but instead we do get new direct I/O features?
