Merge tag 'vfs-6.9-rc1.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains a few small fixes for this merge window:

   - Undo the hiding of silly-rename files in afs. If they're hidden
     they can't be deleted by rm manually anymore causing regressions

   - Avoid caching the preferred address for an afs server to avoid
     accidently overriding an explicitly specified preferred server
     address

   - Fix bad stat() and rmdir() interaction in afs

   - Take a passive reference on the superblock when opening a block
     device so the holder is available to concurrent callers from the
     block layer

   - Clear private data pointer in fscache_begin_operation() to avoid it
     being falsely treated as valid"
