Merge tag 'ceph-for-6.6-rc1' of https://github.com/ceph/ceph-client
Pull ceph updates from Ilya Dryomov:
"Mixed with some fixes and cleanups, this brings in reasonably complete
fscrypt support to CephFS! The list of things which don't work with
encryption should be fairly short, mostly around the edges: fallocate
(not supported well in CephFS to begin with), copy_file_range
(requires re-encryption), non-default striping patterns.
This was a multi-year effort principally by Jeff Layton with
assistance from Xiubo Li, Luís Henriques and others, including several
dependant changes in the MDS, netfs helper library and fscrypt
framework itself"
