Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "mm/rmap: index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by anonymous pgoff" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by their anonymous page offset to resolve confusion around reverse mapping for zeroed and CoW'd file-backed memory. Use this new VMA anonymous page offset tracking to eliminate index conflicts and lay the foundation for scalable CoW performance improvements. - "promote mapped executable folios after first usage for MGLRU" (Baolin Wang) Make MGLRU's protection of mapped executable file folios more reliable. Follow the classical LRU's logic, promoting mapped executable file folios after their first usage to give executable code a better chance to stay in memory and improve workload performance. - "mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter" (Ridong Chen) Fix per-node proactive reclaim interface's ignoring the swappiness parameter when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled by consolidating sc_swappiness() into a single function that checks proactive_swappiness regardless of kernel configuration. - "mm/vmscan: reduce lru_lock contention via vmstat-derived scan-balance cost" (Usama Arif) Reduce lru_lock contention in the reclaim path by deriving scan-balance costs from vmstat counters rather than lock-acquired producer updates. Read and decay these cost signals on the reclaim side under a dedicated per-lruvec lock, reducing total LRU lock wait time by over 60% without impacting scan throughput. - "zram: fix zram issues reported by sashiko" (Sergey Senozhatsky) Fix two low-risk zram bugs which Sashiko spotted in drive-by review. - "Honor XA_FLAGS_ACCOUNT in xas_split_alloc() and charge to folio's memcg" (Zi Yan) Fix xas_split_alloc() by enabling target folio memcg charging during splits and adding the missing __GFP_ACCOUNT flag for proper XArray node memory accounting. - "selftests/mm: use pattern matching in .gitignore" (Pratyush Mallick) Replace hardcoded binary names in selftests/mm/.gitignore with a generic pattern-matching rule to automatically ignore generated test files and avoid manual updates when adding new tests. - "mm/page_ext: remove pgdat_page_ext_init()" (Sang-Heon Jeon) Make the incompatibility between FLATMEM and NUMA explicit in mm/Kconfig and remove the unused pgdat_page_ext_init() function. - "zram: fix zstd error paths and add parameter validation" (Haoqin Huang) Clean up zram compression backends by removing redundant error cleanup, adding parameter and dictionary validation, auto-prefixing algorithm error logs, and resetting parameters prior to reinitialization. - "zram: fix stale scan bounds after reinitialization" (Longlong Xia) Prevent out-of-bounds slot accesses during concurrent zram resets by moving table scan bound calculations under dev_lock in writeback_store() and read_block_state(). - "add anon mTHP collapse test cases" (Baolin Wang) Extend selftests helper functions to support arbitrary page orders and add new test cases and options for mTHP collapse in khugepaged. - "selftests/mm: Handle unsupported and transient test conditions" (Muhammad Usama Anjum) Update MM selftests to report a SKIP status instead of a failure when required kernel or filesystem features are unsupported, while adding retry logic for transient page migration errors. - "mm/zswap: Fixes and improves the zswap shrink" (Hao Jia) Fix the missing zswap global shrinker when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled and extend shrink_memcg() to support batch writeback for improved writeback efficiency. - "alloc_tag: introduce IOCTL-based filtering for MAP" (Suren Baghdasaryan) Introduce an IOCTL-based binary interface for memory allocation profiling that enables kernel-side filtering before per-CPU counter aggregation. This eliminates the text-parsing overhead of /proc/allocinfo and provides up to a 20x speedup by transferring only filtered allocation data to userspace. - "better block swap batching and a different take on swap_ops v5" (Christoph Hellwig) Refactor block swap I/O to use swap_iocb for batching instead of single-bio requests and rebase the swap_ops interface, achieving faster swap throughput during kernel builds. - "mm: kmemleak: reduce transient false positives by confirming leaks" (Catalin Marinas) Reduce false-positive kmemleak reports by combining two kmemleak enhancements that add a second confirmation scan and a configurable minimum unreferenced scan count module parameter. - "mm: kmemleak: default min_unref_scans to 2 for verbose kernels" (Breno Leitao) Auto-scanning kernels can generate false-positive memory leak reports on single scans, so this patch defaults min_unref_scans to 2 when CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_VERBOSE is enabled to require a second confirming scan. - "swap_ops updates" (Christoph Hellwig) Batching I/O for synchronous swap devices causes performance regressions and filesystem-based swap suffers from double-indirection overhead. This series resolves both issues by reintroducing per-folio writes for synchronous swap and allowing filesystems to directly export their own swap_ops. - "mm/khugepaged: several cleanups" (Nico Pache) khugepaged accumulated redundant state-checking patterns and outdated comments following mTHP integration. Introduce dedicated helpers for PTE validation and event counting while refreshing the internal documentation. - "maple_tree: lock checking and clean ups" (Liam Howlett) Syzbot reports incorrectly blame memory management exit paths for locking bugs, maple tree erase operations risk allocation failures without gfp flags and internal documentation lacks clarity. Improve lock error detection, update docs, fix race and allocation edge cases and optimize erase allocations using a fallback to GFP_KERNEL | GFP_NOFAIL. * tag 'mm-stable-2026-08-26-15-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (172 commits) selftests/proc: make proc-maps-race work with READ_IMPLIES_EXEC memcg: move LRU size accounting on reparenting instead of copying it mm/vmscan: fix comment logic in balance_pgdat maple_tree: add helper mas_make_walkable() maple_tree: avoid extra gap calculation maple_tree: fix argument name in header maple_tree: change two GFP flags in tests maple_tree: document erase and allocations better maple_tree: avoid mas_erase() and mtree_erase() failures maple_tree: document that erase may use GFP_KERNEL for allocations maple_tree: catch race in mas_alloc_cyclic() maple_tree: add bulk parent set helper maple_tree: micro optimisation of mas_wr_store_type() maple_tree: optimise mas_wr_node_store() when not in rcu mode maple_tree: use prefetched value in mas_wr_store_type() maple_tree: clarify comments on mas_nomem() maple_tree: drop MAPLE_ALLOC_SLOTS maple_tree: drop dead code from mas_extend_spanning_null() maple_tree: documentation fix maple_tree: add write lock checking with lockdep sequence numbers ...

drivers/base, mm: move arch_numa.c to mm/

2026-08-25T01:43:10+00:00

arch_numa.c implements boot time discovery and initialization of NUMA topology on architectures that select GENERIC_ARCH_NUMA (currently arm64 and riscv). Since this is step in the initialization of the memory management subsystem, it's logical to have arch_numa.c in mm/ alongside numa.c, numa_memblks.c and numa_emulation.c. Move arch_numa.c to mm/ and add its F: entry to "MEMBLOCK AND MEMORY MANAGEMENT INITIALIZATION" in MAINTAINERS.

"Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split" (Zi Yan) Add checks to ensure tail_page->private is zero when freeing compound or high-order pages and when promoting tail pages during large folio splits. By validating these fields at free and split time, it allows the removal of redundant private field clearing inside prep_compound_tail() - "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths" (Barry Song) Eliminate redundant lru_add_drain() calls in wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page() to reduce LRU lock contention and system overhead By validating folio refcounts against the LRU cache before draining and removing unnecessary drains in the swap path, it achieves up to a 30.5% reduction in drain calls during heavy swap workloads - "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations" (Jianyue Wu) Reorganize folio LRU and swap code by relocating page-cluster state to mm/swap_state.c, renaming mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c, and moving MM-internal reclaim declarations into mm/internal.h. - "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory" (Kiryl Shutsemau) Add userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage - "mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE (Part 2)" (David Hildenbrand) Remove the remaining pieces of CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, performing some smaller cleanups around freeing of reserved vmemmap pages on the way. - "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits" (SJ Park) Ensure that DAMON's probe_hits attribute counter is properly updated when monitoring intervals are changed at runtime, matching the behavior of nr_accesses. To achieve this, it refactors and renames existing helper functions for shared use, applies the updates to probe_hits, and handles edge cases in damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to maintain measurement accuracy. - "KSM: performance optimizations for rmap_walk_ksm" (xu xin) Resolve a severe KSM reverse-mapping performance bottleneck where thousands of split VMAs sharing a single anon_vma cause extended lock contention. By adding an interval-filtering check during the rmap walk, it reduces worst-case anon_vma lock hold times from over 500ms down to under 2ms, preventing application freezes and latency spikes under memory pressure. - "mm: split a couple of headers from internal.h" (Mike Rapoport) Split declarations related to mm_init, memblock, vmalloc and sparse into new headers - "KSM: use linear_page_index in collect_procs_ksm()" (xu xin) Apply the interval tree optimization from rmap_walk_ksm() to collect_procs_ksm() to avoid iterating over non-matching VMAs during KSM memory error handling.

By assigning weights to attribute probes, DAMON can completely disable access tracking and adjust monitoring regions based on weighted probe-hit counters to optimize monitoring quality for attribute-focused workloads. - "mm/hmm: Add mmap lock-drop support for userfaultfd-backed mappings" (Stanislav Kinsburskii) Extend hmm_range_fault() to support userfaultfd-backed regions by allowing the mmap lock to be dropped during fault handling via a new hmm_range_fault_locked() helper. By accepting a locked pointer and signaling retry status when lock release occurs, it enables page fault resolution in userfaultfd regions while preserving backward compatibility for existing callers. - "mm: make VMA page offset handling more consistent" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Clean up and standardize how vma->vm_pgoff is accessed and manipulated across file-backed and anonymous mappings in the kernel It introduces dedicated helper functions such as vma_start_pgoff(), vma_end_pgoff(), vma_set_pgoff() and linear_page_delta() while renaming rmap interval tree helpers to better reflect their functionality. These changes establish a cleaner foundation for future work that will unify virtual page offset indexing for all anonymous and CoW'd folios. - "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks" (Usama Arif) Address kernel panics and state corruption caused by MM walk callbacks reaching non-present device-private PMD swap entries created during HMM migrations It ensures that functions which acquire pmd_trans_huge_lock() properly recognize device-private PMDs instead of assuming a present THP or a standard migration entry. - "mm/rmap: Refactor try_to_unmap_one" (Dev Jain) Refactor try_to_unmap_one by modularizing Hugetlb, anonymous-lazyfree, and anonymous-swapbacked logic into dedicated functions, laying the structural groundwork for batched anonymous large folio unmapping. - "Docs/ABI/damon: sysfs ABI document fixes and additions" (Song Hu) Fix typos and fills in missing entries in the DAMON sysfs ABI document - "dax/kmem: atomic whole-device hotplug via sysfs" (Gregory Price) Introduce an atomic sysfs state attribute and supporting DAX/MM infrastructure to prevent userland races when offlining and removing entire memory regions By adding an unplugged state alongside standard online modes, it enables whole-device atomic hotplug control while preserving backward compatibility. - "mm: convert more vm_flags_t users to vma_flags_t" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Continue transitioning the kernel from the deprecated vm_flags_t type to vma_flags_t across core memory management infrastructure. It replaces legacy type usage in core functions such as do_mmap(), unmapped area allocation, mm->def_vma_flags, and VMA operations like mlock, mprotect, and mremap. - "Two small patches to clean up mm/mm_slot.h" (xu xin) Refactor mm_slot.h by introducing mm_slot_remove() to unify duplicate slot deletion sequences in khugepaged and KSM. It also adds code documentation explaining why mm_slot_lookup and mm_slot_insert must remain as preprocessor macros rather than static inline functions. - "mm/damon/core: hide core-private struct fields" (SJ Park) Clean up DAMON core structures by consistently marking internal-only fields with private: comment tags to prevent improper direct access from outer layers. It enforces encapsulation across core structures including damon_region, damon_target, and damon_ctx and updates DAMON_SYSFS to interact through approved access APIs instead of exposing raw struct members. - "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and races" (SJ Park) Address potential infinite loops, NULL dereferences, and race conditions identified in DAMON It fixes an infinite loop triggered by extreme user configurations, a NULL pointer dereference within unit tests and minor monitoring accuracy degradation caused by subtle runtime races. - "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP" (Brendan Jackman) Fix an NMI safety flaw in __free_frozen_pages() where freeing pages on non-SMP or PREEMPT_RT kernels can bypass can_spin_trylock() checks via non-PCP or isolated migration paths. It also resolves potential kernel crashes and privilege escalation risks triggered when BPF tracing runs in NMI context alongside memory hotplug or large allocation frees. - "mm/page_alloc: couple of followups for recent cleanups" (Brendan Jackman) Clean up and update page allocator nomenclature, documentation, and debug assertions. It aligns internal FPI_ flags with the public "nolock" naming convention, removes outdated internal implementation details from high-level page allocator comments, and eliminates obsolete VM_BUG_ON() assertions in allocation paths. - "mm/mseal: further cleanups" (Lorenzo Stoakes) Refactor and simplify the mseal implementation by clarifying API boundaries and removing unnecessary code complexity. It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no functional changes intended. - "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive reclaim" (Ridong Chen) Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across memory reclaim paths It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim(). - "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang) Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP pages as non-resident. - "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau) Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API - "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation bugs" (SJ Park) Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling. - "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu) Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags without altering functionality. It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*() helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling. - "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain) Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed(). This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control flow and complexity. - "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()" (Sang-Heon Jeon) Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of __late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after early_ioremap_reset() It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset() must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures. - "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner) Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta production It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather than spinning unproductively. - "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior) Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems. * tag 'mm-stable-2026-08-18-18-39' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (501 commits) selftests/mm: thuge-gen: fix test_shmget() for PAGE_SIZE check selftests/mm: unpoison pages in memory-failure teardown mm/shmem: downgrade final i_blocks check in shmem_evict_inode() to pr_warn() mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro mm/zsmalloc: fix release order of locks in zs_page_migrate() Documentation: zram: remove sections numbering ksm: stop iterating VMAs when ksm_test_exit returns true mm: fold userfaultfd_rwp() to false without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE mm/migrate: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in migrate_pages_batch() zram: use a custom key for each zram object zram: move lockmap to be per-zram instead per table selftests/mm: fix gup_longterm EINVAL error message mm: page_alloc: fix non-movable reclaim storm in defrag_mode mm: page_alloc: move capture_control to the page allocator mm: compaction: support non-movable compaction for pageblock requests mm: page_alloc: __GFP_FS lockdep annotation for direct compaction hugetlb: evaluate subpool free state while locked mm/damon: remove trailing semicolons after function definitions mm/damon/ops-common: prevent migration fallback to non-target nodes mm/damon: update outdated comment about DAMOS filter handling ...

PM: sleep: Unblock runtime PM when device prepare fails

2026-08-20T21:18:15+00:00

device_prepare() blocks runtime PM for a device with runtime PM disabled before invoking its system-sleep ->prepare() callback. For a device that has never enabled runtime PM, this changes dev->power.last_status from RPM_INVALID to RPM_BLOCKED. If the callback returns an error, dpm_prepare() does not move the device to dpm_prepared_list. Consequently, the recovery path through dpm_complete() never calls device_complete() for the failing device. The error path drops the runtime PM usage reference, but does not clear RPM_BLOCKED. A later legitimate pm_runtime_enable() then reports: Attempt to enable runtime PM when it is blocked before clearing the stale state. Call pm_runtime_unblock() on the prepare error path before dropping the runtime PM reference, matching the cleanup performed by device_complete(). The issue was reproduced with a platform test device whose ->prepare() callback returns -EIO while runtime PM has never been enabled. Before the fix, last_status remained RPM_BLOCKED after the failed suspend and the first pm_runtime_enable() produced the warning above. With the fix, last_status is restored to RPM_INVALID and the warning is absent.

Pull driver core updates from Danilo Krummrich: "container_of: - Apply typeof_member(), remove the local __mptr variable to eliminate variable shadowing warnings on nested container_of() calls, and remove unnecessary parentheses core: - Add driver name to probe debug print for initcall_debug - Avoid repeatedly printing the same 'Fixed dependency cycle' log - Unwind device_add() on attribute creation failure in attribute_container_add_class_device() - Remove statistics group if encryption group creation fails in transport_add_class_device() debugfs: - Fix lockdown check for mmap_prepare() - Warn if file creation failed due to uninitialized debugfs device property: - Implement fw_devlink support for software nodes by adding software_node_add_links(), which creates fwnode links from DEV_PROP_REF properties to enable automatic probe ordering. Add kunit-managed fwnode helpers and test coverage - Fix infinite loop in fwnode_for_each_child_node() when the secondary fwnode has more than one child. Add test cases - Fix out-of-bounds access in software_node_get_reference_args() when called with index -1 (UINT_MAX) - Refactor to use RAII approach with __free() - Add Bartosz Golaszewski as software node reviewer firmware loader: - Fix race where a sysfs fallback request can complete before being queued as pending, leading to a use-after-free on the next fallback request - Reject 0-size built-in firmware and fail the build on empty firmware files in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE kobject: - Provide __KOBJ_ATTR() and __KOBJ_ATTR_RO/WO() initialization macros and allow the constification of kobject attributes, enabling them to reside in read-only memory platform: - Provide platform_device_set_of_node(), platform_device_set_fwnode(), and platform_device_set_of_node_from_dev() helpers that encapsulate firmware node reference counting for dynamically allocated platform devices Convert all in-tree users that manually assigned dev.of_node or dev.fwnode, fixing a pre-existing refcount bug in powermac. Switch to counting references of all firmware node types, not only OF nodes - Unify the release path for dynamically allocated platform devices by removing platform_device_release_full(). Amend the fwnode setter API contract to warn if a primary software node is overwritten. Add KUnit tests for correct software node removal on device unregistration Rust: - Auxiliary: - Add registration_data_with() closure-based API for invariant ForLt types - Debugfs: - Migrate BinaryWriter and BinaryReaderMut trait requirements from kernel::transmute traits to zerocopy traits - Device: - Add BoundInternal device context and InternalBoundContext trait for bus abstractions that need internal access to a bound device. - Make the lifetime on Core and CoreInternal invariant to prevent coercion to shorter lifetimes - Devres: - Fix race between concurrent revokers where the losing revoker could return before the winning revoker finished dropping the inner data, causing use-after-free. - Ensure revocation is complete before the device finishes unbinding by making the synchronization bidirectional. - Add DevresLt, a wrapper around Devres that shortens 'static back to the caller's borrow scope. Implement ForLt and CovariantForLt for Bar, IoMem, and ExclusiveIoMem - Driver: - Switch from index-based to pointer-based device ID info lookup, storing static references in driver_data. Centralize device ID handling in device_id.rs, removing the open-coded ACPI/OF matching logic and duplicate ID table from driver.rs - I/O: - Make I/O regions typed (with a dynamically-sized Region type for the existing untyped case), create view types representing subregions of a mapped I/O region, and add io_project!() for safely creating subviews. - Split Io into a base trait (IoBase) and an extension trait (Io) with a blanket implementation, preventing implementers from overriding provided methods that unsafe code relies on. - Add a SysMem backend for shared system memory with volatile access, and make Coherent implement Io via an I/O view type. Add IoSysMap as sum type of Mmio and SysMem. Add copying methods (memcpy_{from,to}io()) and read_val()/write_val() for typed access. - Replace dma_read!()/dma_write!() with io_read!()/io_write!() for primitives and copying methods for aggregates; drop the old macros. Convert nova-core to use I/O projection. - Fix internal shortcut rule dispatch in the register!() macro, remove unused rule arguments, and use path fragments for alias destinations - IRQ: - Make irq::Registration compatible with lifetime-bound drivers by removing the 'static bound on Handler/ThreadedHandler and replacing Devres with direct request_irq()/free_irq() calls. Handlers can now directly own lifetime-bound device resources - PCI: - Convert IrqVectorRegistration to a lifetime-annotated owning type, giving drivers explicit control over the allocation lifetime. IrqVector embeds a resolved IrqRequest, making the conversion infallible. Remove the redundant request_irq()/request_threaded_irq() wrappers from pci::Device. - Add pci_irq_type() C helper and expose it via irq_type() on IrqVectorRegistration and IrqVector, returning PCI_IRQ_MSIX, PCI_IRQ_MSI, or PCI_IRQ_INTX. - Mark pci::Device refcount methods inline - Serdev: - Add Rust abstractions for the serial device bus, including serdev::Driver trait, serdev::Device wrapping struct serdev_device, and serdev::Adapter implementing RegistrationOps. Includes a sample driver. Markus Probst takes over as serdev maintainer for both C and Rust code - Misc: - Split ForLt into a base trait (providing the Of<'a> GAT) and an unsafe CovariantForLt subtrait guaranteeing covariance, enabling invariant types (e.g. those containing Mutex<&'bound T>) to participate in the ForLt abstraction. - Fix Coherent read past EOF returning -ERANGE instead of zero. - Fix firmware example UB by avoiding null-pointer ARef misc: - Avoid iattr allocation in kernfs listxattr by using kernfs_iattrs_noalloc(). - Unregister SoC bus on early device registration failure. - Remove unused DMA_FENCE_TRACE Kconfig symbol. - Fix /sys/module path in comment. - Refactor ISA bus init to remove nested blocks. - Remove redundant nodemask clears in numa_init(). - Add kernel-doc for fwnode_operations and sys_soc.h, mark internal property data as private for kernel-doc, and add property.h/fwnode.h to driver-api infrastructure docs. - Add MAINTAINERS entry for sys_soc.h" * tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core: (129 commits) rust: pci: expose the allocated interrupt type PCI: Add pci_irq_type() to query the allocated interrupt type rust: pci: remove request_irq() and request_threaded_irq() from Device rust: pci: resolve IRQ in index() and embed IrqRequest in IrqVector rust: pci: convert IrqVectorRegistration to a lifetime-managed owning type kernfs: avoid iattr allocation in listxattr rust: serdev: use ThisModule::as_ptr() instead of field access ACPI/IORT: use platform_device_set_fwnode() ACPI/APMT: use platform_device_set_fwnode() firmware_loader: do not queue completed sysfs fallback requests rust: pci: Mark Device refcount methods inline rust: irq: make Registration compatible with lifetime-bound drivers rust: net/phy: remove expansion from doc rust: dma: return zero for Coherent reads past EOF rust: io: register: use path fragment for alias destination rust: io: register: remove unused rule arguments rust: io: register: dispatch shortcut rules internally MAINTAINERS: add sys_soc.h to DRIVER CORE rust: debugfs: remove unsafe blocks from traits impl for Vec rust: debugfs: migrate debugfs traits requirements to zerocopy ...
