Hi Carlos,
Please pull this branch with changes for xfs.
As usual, I did a test-merge with the main upstream branch as of a few minutes ago, and didn't see any conflicts. Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

xfs: use deferred reaping for data device cow extents (2025-09-05 08:48:23 -0700)
---------------------------------------------------------------- xfs: improve online repair reap calculations [6.18 v2 1/2]
A few months ago, the multi-fsblock untorn writes patchset added a bunch of log intent item helper functions to estimate the number of intent items that could be added to a particular transaction. Those helpers enabled us to compute a safe upper bound on the number of blocks that could be written in an untorn fashion with filesystem-provided out of place writes.
Currently, the online fsck code employs static limits on the number of intent items that it's willing to accrue to a single transaction when it's trying to reap what it thinks are the old blocks from a corrupt structure. There have been no problems reported with this approach after years of testing, but static limits are scary and gross because overestimating the intent item limit could result in transaction overflows and dead filesystems; and underestimating causes unnecessary overhead.
This series uses the new log intent item size helpers to estimate the limits dynamically based on worst-case per-block repair work vs. the size of the scrub transaction. After several months of testing this, there don't seem to be any problems here either.
v2: rearrange patches, add review tags
This has been running on the djcloud for months with no problems. Enjoy!
