Merge tag 'xfs-4.17-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
 "I've got one more bug fix for xfs for 4.17-rc4, which caps the amount
  of data we try to handle in one dedupe request so that userspace can't
  livelock the kernel.

  This series has been run through a full xfstests run during the week
  and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with
  no ajor failures reported.

  Summary:

  - Cap the maximum length of a deduplication request at MAX_RW_COUNT/2
    to avoid kernel livelock due to excessively large IO requests"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
