Consolidated multiple review comments into one email, the majority are nits at
best:

[PATCH 04/48]:

An obnoxiously pendantic English grammar nit:

+ * lock).  This can also be called from mark_buffer_dirty(), which I

The period should be inside the paren, e.g.: "lock.)"


[PATCH 05/48]:

+       unsigned char aux[3];

I'd like to see an explanation of why this is "3."

+static inline void folio_batch_init(struct folio_batch *fbatch)
+{
+       fbatch->nr = 0;
+}
+
+static inline unsigned int folio_batch_count(struct folio_batch *fbatch)
+{
+       return fbatch->nr;
+}
+
+static inline unsigned int fbatch_space(struct folio_batch *fbatch)
+{
+       return PAGEVEC_SIZE - fbatch->nr;
+}
+
+/**
+ * folio_batch_add() - Add a folio to a batch.
+ * @fbatch: The folio batch.
+ * @folio: The folio to add.
+ *
+ * The folio is added to the end of the batch.
+ * The batch must have previously been initialised using folio_batch_init().
+ *
+ * Return: The number of slots still available.
+ */
+static inline unsigned folio_batch_add(struct folio_batch *fbatch,
+               struct folio *folio)
+{
+       fbatch->folios[fbatch->nr++] = folio;

Is there any need to validate fbatch in these inlines?

[PATCH 07/48]:

+       xas_for_each(&xas, folio, ULONG_MAX) {                  \
                unsigned left;                                  \
-               if (xas_retry(&xas, head))                      \
+               size_t offset = offset_in_folio(folio, start + __off);  \
+               if (xas_retry(&xas, folio))                     \
                        continue;                               \
-               if (WARN_ON(xa_is_value(head)))                 \
+               if (WARN_ON(xa_is_value(folio)))                \
                        break;                                  \
-               if (WARN_ON(PageHuge(head)))                    \
+               if (WARN_ON(folio_test_hugetlb(folio)))         \
                        break;                                  \
-               for (j = (head->index < index) ? index - head->index : 0; \
-                    j < thp_nr_pages(head); j++) {             \
-                       void *kaddr = kmap_local_page(head + j);        \
-                       base = kaddr + offset;                  \
-                       len = PAGE_SIZE - offset;               \
+               while (offset < folio_size(folio)) {            \

Since offset is not actually used until after a bunch of error conditions
may exit or restart the loop, and isn't used at all in between, defer
its calculation until just before its first use in the "while."

[PATCH 25/48]:

Whether you use your follow-on patch sent to Christop or defer it until later
as mentioned in your followup email, either approach is fine with me.

Otherwise it all looks good.
