This series changes ext4 and f2fs to stop using PG_error to track decryption and verity errors. This is a step towards freeing up PG_error for other uses, as discussed at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/Yn10Iz1mJX1Mu1rv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Note: due to the interdependencies with fs/crypto/ and fs/verity/, I couldn't split this up into separate patches for each filesystem. I'd appreciate Acks from the ext4 and f2fs maintainers so that I can take these patches. Otherwise I'm not sure how to move them forward. Changed v1 => v2: - Rebased onto v6.0-rc1 and resolved conflicts in f2fs.
