Follow the advice of the Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst
and show() should only use sysfs_emit() or sysfs_emit_at()
when formatting the value to be returned to user space.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "Core:

   - Allow live renaming when an interface is up

   - Add retpoline wrappers for tc, improving considerably the
     performances of complex queue discipline configurations

   - Add inet drop monitor support

   - A few GRO performance improvements

   - Add infrastructure for atomic dev stats, addressing long standing
     data races

   - De-duplicate common code between OVS and conntrack offloading
     infrastructure

   - A bunch of UBSAN_BOUNDS/FORTIFY_SOURCE improvements

   - Netfilter: introduce packet parser for tunneled packets

     workload with the number of available CPUs

   - Add the helper support for connection-tracking OVS offload

  BPF:

   - Support for user defined BPF objects: the use case is to allocate
     own objects, build own object hierarchies and use the building
     blocks to build own data structures flexibly, for example, linked
     lists in BPF

   - Make cgroup local storage available to non-cgroup attached BPF
     programs

   - Avoid unnecessary deadlock detection and failures wrt BPF task
     storage helpers

   - A relevant bunch of BPF verifier fixes and improvements

   - Veristat tool improvements to support custom filtering, sorting,
     and replay of results

   - Add LLVM disassembler as default library for dumping JITed code

   - Lots of new BPF documentation for various BPF maps

   - Add bpf_rcu_read_{,un}lock() support for sleepable programs

   - Add RCU grace period chaining to BPF to wait for the completion of
     access from both sleepable and non-sleepable BPF programs

   - Add support storing struct task_struct objects as kptrs in maps

   - Improve helper UAPI by explicitly defining BPF_FUNC_xxx integer
     values

   - Add libbpf *_opts API-variants for bpf_*_get_fd_by_id() functions

  Protocols:

   - TCP: implement Protective Load Balancing across switch links

   - TCP: allow dynamically disabling TCP-MD5 static key, reverting back
     to fast[er]-path

   - UDP: Introduce optional per-netns hash lookup table

   - IPv6: simplify and cleanup sockets disposal

   - Netlink: support different type policies for each generic netlink
     operation

   - Extensions for Ethernet VPN bridging implementation to better
     support multicast scenarios

   - More work for Wi-Fi 7 support, comprising conversion of all the
     existing drivers to internal TX queue usage

   - IPSec: introduce a new offload type (packet offload) allowing
     complete header processing and crypto offloading

   - IPSec: extended ack support for more descriptive XFRM error
     reporting

   - RXRPC: increase SACK table size and move processing into a
     per-local endpoint kernel thread, reducing considerably the
     required locking

   - IEEE 802154: synchronous send frame and extended filtering support,
     initial support for scanning available 15.4 networks

   - Tun: bump the link speed from 10Mbps to 10Gbps

   - Tun/VirtioNet: implement UDP segmentation offload support

  Driver API:

   - PHY/SFP: improve power level switching between standard level 1 and
     the higher power levels

   - New API for netdev &lt;-&gt; devlink_port linkage

   - PTP: convert existing drivers to new frequency adjustment
     implementation

   - DSA: add support for rx offloading

   - Autoload DSA tagging driver when dynamically changing protocol

   - Add new PCP and APPTRUST attributes to Data Center Bridging

   - Add configuration support for 800Gbps link speed

   - Add devlink port function attribute to enable/disable RoCE and
     migratable

   - Extend devlink-rate to support strict prioriry and weighted fair
     queuing

   - Add devlink support to directly reading from region memory

dma_alloc_coherent is an opaque allocator that only uses the GFP_ flags
for allocation context control.  Don't pass __GFP_COMP which makes no
sense for an allocation that can't in any way be converted to a page
pointer.

With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:

  drivers/s390/net/lcs.c:2090:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
          .ndo_start_xmit         = lcs_start_xmit,
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/s390/net/lcs.c:2097:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
          .ndo_start_xmit         = lcs_start_xmit,
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-&gt;ndo_start_xmit() in 'struct net_device_ops' expects a return type of
'netdev_tx_t', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of lcs_start_xmit() to
match the prototype's to resolve the warning and potential CFI failure,
should s390 select ARCH_SUPPORTS_CFI_CLANG in the future.
