Yes, these got left overs because of the parallel series.

Sure. Will make the change. Otherwise this patch looks good to you?
I also had a query regarding setting "len = size - folio_pos(folio)" in this patch.
Details of which I had pasted in the cover letter. Let me copy-paste
it here from the cover letter. Could you please take a look at it?


<copy-paste>
Also had a query w.r.t your change [1]. I couldn't understand this change diff
from [1]. Given if we are making the conversion to folio, then shouldn't we do
len = size - folio_pos(pos), instead of len = size & ~PAGE_MASK
Could you please tell if the current change in [1] is kept deliberately?
At other places you did make len as size - folio_pos(pos) which removes the
PAGE_SIZE assumption.

-static int mpage_submit_page(struct mpage_da_data *mpd, struct page *page)
+static int mpage_submit_folio(struct mpage_da_data *mpd, struct folio *folio)
 {
-	int len;
+	size_t len;

	<...>

	size = i_size_read(mpd->inode);
-	if (page->index == size >> PAGE_SHIFT &&
+	len = folio_size(folio);
+	if (folio_pos(folio) + len > size &&
 	    !ext4_verity_in_progress(mpd->inode))
 		len = size & ~PAGE_MASK;
-	else
-		len = PAGE_SIZE;
-	err = ext4_bio_write_page(&mpd->io_submit, page, len);
+	err = ext4_bio_write_page(&mpd->io_submit, &folio->page, len);
 	if (!err)
 		mpd->wbc->nr_to_write--;

Thanks for the quick review!
