As a step towards freeing the PG_error flag for other uses, change ext4
and f2fs to stop using PG_error to track verity errors.  Instead, if a
verity error occurs, just mark the whole bio as failed.  The coarser
granularity isn't really a problem since it isn't any worse than what
the block layer provides, and errors from a multi-page readahead aren't
reported to applications unless a single-page read fails too.

f2fs supports compression, which makes the f2fs changes a bit more
complicated than desired, but the basic premise still works.

In v3, I made a small simplification to the f2fs changes.  I'm also only
sending the fsverity patch now, since the fscrypt one is now upstream.

Hi Eric,

Result of "grep PageError fs/f2fs/* -n"

...
fs/f2fs/gc.c:1364:      ClearPageError(page);
fs/f2fs/inline.c:177:   ClearPageError(page);
fs/f2fs/node.c:1649:    ClearPageError(page);
fs/f2fs/node.c:2078:            if (TestClearPageError(page))
fs/f2fs/segment.c:3406: ClearPageError(page);

Any plan to remove above PG_error flag operations? Maybe in a separated patch?

Thanks,

I've applied this to the fsverity tree for 6.2.

Reviews would be greatly appreciated, of course.


Jaegeuk and Chao, can I get a review or ack from one of you?

- Eric
