Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
 "In this cycle, direct I/O and fsdax support for uncompressed files are
  now added in order to avoid double-caching for loop device and VM
  container use cases. All uncompressed cases are now turned into iomap
  infrastructure, which looks much simpler and cleaner.

  In addition, fiemap support is added for both (un)compressed files by
  using iomap infrastructure as well so end users can easily get file
  distribution. We've also added chunk-based uncompressed files support
  for data deduplication as the next step of VM container use cases.

  Summary:

   - support direct I/O for all uncompressed files

   - support fsdax for non-tailpacking regular files

   - use iomap infrastructure for all uncompressed cases

   - support fiemap for both (un)compressed files

   - introduce chunk-based files for chunk deduplication

   - some cleanups"

+Chunk-based file
+----------------
+In order to support chunk-based data deduplication, a new inode data layout has
+been supported since Linux v5.15: Files are split in equal-sized data chunks
+with ``extents`` area of the inode metadata indicating how to get the chunk
+data: these can be simply as a 4-byte block address array or in the 8-byte
+chunk index form (see struct erofs_inode_chunk_index in erofs_fs.h for more
+details.)
+
+By the way, chunk-based files are all uncompressed for now.
