Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) 3decb8564e buffer: make folio_create_empty_buffers() return a buffer_head
Patch series "Finish the create_empty_buffers() transition", v2.

Pankaj recently added folio_create_empty_buffers() as the folio equivalent
to create_empty_buffers().  This patch set finishes the conversion by
first converting all remaining filesystems to call
folio_create_empty_buffers(), then renaming it back to
create_empty_buffers().  I took the opportunity to make a few
simplifications like making folio_create_empty_buffers() return the head
buffer and extracting get_nth_bh() from nilfs2.

A few of the patches in this series aren't directly related to
create_empty_buffers(), but I saw them while I was working on this and
thought they'd be easy enough to add to this series.  Compile-tested only,
other than ext4.


This patch (of 26):

Almost all callers want to know the first BH that was allocated for this
folio.  We already have that handy, so return it.

README

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.

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.
