Merge tag 'v5.0-rc6' into for-5.1/block
Pull in 5.0-rc6 to avoid a dumb merge conflict with fs/iomap.c. This is needed since io_uring is now based on the block branch, to avoid a conflict between the multi-page bvecs and the bits of io_uring that touch the core block parts. * tag 'v5.0-rc6': (525 commits) Linux 5.0-rc6 x86/mm: Make set_pmd_at() paravirt aware MAINTAINERS: Update the ocores i2c bus driver maintainer, etc blk-mq: remove duplicated definition of blk_mq_freeze_queue Blk-iolatency: warn on negative inflight IO counter blk-iolatency: fix IO hang due to negative inflight counter MAINTAINERS: unify reference to xen-devel list x86/mm/cpa: Fix set_mce_nospec() futex: Handle early deadlock return correctly futex: Fix barrier comment net: dsa: b53: Fix for failure when irq is not defined in dt blktrace: Show requests without sector mips: cm: reprime error cause mips: loongson64: remove unreachable(), fix loongson_poweroff(). sit: check if IPv6 enabled before calling ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() geneve: should not call rt6_lookup() when ipv6 was disabled KVM: nVMX: unconditionally cancel preemption timer in free_nested (CVE-2019-7221) KVM: x86: work around leak of uninitialized stack contents (CVE-2019-7222) kvm: fix kvm_ioctl_create_device() reference counting (CVE-2019-6974) signal: Better detection of synchronous signals ...

+Dentries are dynamically allocated and deallocated.

+nr_dentry shows the total number of dentries allocated (active
++ unused). nr_unused shows the number of dentries that are not
+actively used, but are saved in the LRU list for future reuse.

Age_limit is the age in seconds after which dcache entries
can be reclaimed when memory is short and want_pages is
nonzero when shrink_dcache_pages() has been called and the
dcache isn't pruned yet.
+nr_negative shows the number of unused dentries that are also
