[PATCH v2 0/5] erofs: get rid of erofs_get_meta_page()

From: Gao Xiang
Date: Sat Jan 01 2022 - 23:01:07 EST


Hi folks,

erofs_get_meta_page() is actually inflexible since it's too
close to the page itself.

In order to prepare for folio and subpage features, introduce
on-stack meta buffer descriptor instead and convert all
erofs_get_meta_page() users to use it.

It can also be used for new potential backends such as fscache or mtd.

Patches are trivial.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
