Merge tag 'squashfs-updates' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pkl/squashfs-next

Pull squashfs updates from Phillip Lougher:
 "These patches optionally improve the multi-threading peformance of
  Squashfs by adding parallel decompression, and direct decompression
  into the page cache, eliminating an intermediate buffer (removing
  memcpy overhead and lock contention)"

* tag 'squashfs-updates' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pkl/squashfs-next:
  Squashfs: Check stream is not NULL in decompressor_multi.c
  Squashfs: Directly decompress into the page cache for file data
  Squashfs: Restructure squashfs_readpage()
  Squashfs: Generalise paging handling in the decompressors
  Squashfs: add multi-threaded decompression using percpu variable
  squashfs: Enhance parallel I/O
  Squashfs: Refactor decompressor interface and code

+	bool "Single threaded compression"

+
+config SQUASHFS_DECOMP_MULTI
+	bool "Use multiple decompressors for parallel I/O"
+	help
+	  By default Squashfs uses a single decompressor but it gives
+	  poor performance on parallel I/O workloads when using multiple CPU
+	  machines due to waiting on decompressor availability.
+
+	  If you have a parallel I/O workload and your system has enough memory,
+	  using this option may improve overall I/O performance.
+
+	  This decompressor implementation uses up to two parallel
+	  decompressors per core.  It dynamically allocates decompressors
+	  on a demand basis.

+	help
+	  By default Squashfs uses a single decompressor but it gives
+	  poor performance on parallel I/O workloads when using multiple CPU
+	  machines due to waiting on decompressor availability.
+
+	  This decompressor implementation uses a maximum of one
+	  decompressor per core.  It uses percpu variables to ensure
