netfs: zero the tail of a short DIO/unbuffered readgrafted
The buffered read collector zero-fills the tail of a short read that stops below the inode's i_size (netfs_clear_unread()), so a read that races an extending write still returns the expected number of bytes. The non-buffered collector path does no such thing: it just records how much was transferred. Add the same zero-fill for the non-buffered case, gated on NETFS_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL: a subreq's source sets that flag when a short result from it is known to be safe to treat as a hole, as opposed to NETFS_SREQ_HIT_EOF, which means the read genuinely ran off the end of the file and should be reported short as-is. Only CLEAR_TAIL should zero-fill here; a real EOF must stay a real short read. No source currently sets CLEAR_TAIL on an unbuffered/DIO subrequest, so this is inert on its own -- a following change teaches cifs to set it in the one case that needs it.

+menuconfig RAS
+ bool "Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) features"
+ help
+ Reliability, availability and serviceability (RAS) is a computer
+ hardware engineering term. Computers designed with higher levels
+ of RAS have a multitude of features that protect data integrity
+ and help them stay available for long periods of time without
+ failure.
+
+ Reliability can be defined as the probability that the system will
+ produce correct outputs up to some given time. Reliability is
+ enhanced by features that help to avoid, detect and repair hardware
+ faults.
+
+ Availability is the probability a system is operational at a given
+ time, i.e. the amount of time a device is actually operating as the
+ percentage of total time it should be operating.
+
+ Serviceability or maintainability is the simplicity and speed with
+ which a system can be repaired or maintained; if the time to repair
+ a failed system increases, then availability will decrease.
+
+ Note that Reliability and Availability are distinct concepts:
+ Reliability is a measure of the ability of a system to function
+ correctly, including avoiding data corruption, whereas Availability
+ measures how often it is available for use, even though it may not
+ be functioning correctly. For example, a server may run forever and
+ so have ideal availability, but may be unreliable, with frequent
+ data corruption.

+ bool "Correctable Errors Collector"
+ depends on X86_MCE && MEMORY_FAILURE && DEBUG_FS
+ help
+ This is a small cache which collects correctable memory errors per 4K
+ page PFN and counts their repeated occurrence. Once the counter for a
+ PFN overflows, we try to soft-offline that page as we take it to mean
+ that it has reached a relatively high error count and would probably
+ be best if we don't use it anymore.
+
+ Bear in mind that this is absolutely useless if your platform doesn't
+ have ECC DIMMs and doesn't have DRAM ECC checking enabled in the BIOS.

+ depends on RAS_CEC
+ help
+ Add extra files to (debugfs)/ras/cec to test the correctable error
+ collector feature. "pfn" is a writable file that allows user to
+ simulate an error in a particular page frame. "array" is a read-only
+ file that dumps out the current state of all pages logged so far.
