Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Remove MPS/MRRS Kconfig settings (CONFIG_PCIE_BUS_*) that worked
around a WiFi device defect; use a quirk or boot-time
"pci=pcie_bus_tune_*" kernel parameter instead (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Always lift 2.5GT/s restriction in PCIe failed link retraining to
avoid clamping a link to 2.5GT/s after hot-plug changes the device
(Maciej W. Rozycki)
- Request bus reassignment when not probe-only to fix an enumeration
regression on Marvell CN106XX and possibly other DT-based systems
(Ratheesh Kannoth)
- Fix procfs race between pci_proc_init() and pci_bus_add_device()
that resulted in 'proc_dir_entry ... already registered' warnings
and pointer corruption (Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Fix sysfs race that causes 'duplicate filename' warnings and boot
panics by converting PCI resource files to static attributes
(Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Expose sysfs 'resourceN_resize' attributes only on platforms with
PCI mmap (Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN to write to sysfs 'resourceN_resize'
attributes (Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Add security_locked_down(LOCKDOWN_PCI_ACCESS) to alpha PCI resource
mmap path to match the generic path (Krzysztof Wilczyński)
- Use kstrtobool() to parse the 'rom' attribute input to avoid the
unexpected behavior of enabling the ROM when writing '0' with no
trailing newline (Krzysztof Wilczyński)
Resource management:
- Improve resource claim logging for debuggability (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Clean up several uses of const parameters (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Check option ROM header signatures and lengths before accessing to
avoid page faults and alignment faults (Guixin Liu)
ASPM:
- Don't reconfigure ASPM when entering low-power D-state; only do it
when returning back to D0 (Carlos Bilbao)
Power management:
- During suspend, set power state to 'unknown' for all devices, not
just those with drivers (Lukas Wunner)
- Skip restoring Resizable BARs and VF Resizable BARs if device
doesn't respond to config reads, to avoid invalid array accesses
(Marco Nenciarini)
- Add pci_suspend_retains_context() so drivers can tell whether
devices retain internal state across suspend/resume, since some
platforms reset devices on suspend; use this in nvme to avoid
issues on Qcom RCs (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Power control:
- Only to power on/off devices that actually support power control to
avoid poking at incompatible devices mentioned in DT (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
Virtualization and resets:
- Log device readiness timeouts as errors, not warnings, because the
device is likely unusable in this case (Bjorn Helgaas)
- Wait for device readiness after soft reset (D3hot ->
D0uninitialized transition), when the device may respond with
Request Retry Status (RRS) if it needs more time to initialize
(Bjorn Helgaas)
- Drop unnecessary retries when restoring BARs because resets should
now already include all required delays (Lukas Wunner)
- Avoid FLR for MediaTek MT7925 WiFi, where FLR fails after a VM
terminates uncleanly (Jose Ignacio Tornos Martinez)
- Avoid SBR for Qualcomm WCN6855/WCN7850 WiFi, SDX62/SDX65 modems,
which seem not to support it correctly (Jose Ignacio Tornos
Martinez)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Prevent P2PDMA as well as CPU access to non-mappable BARs, e.g.,
s390 ISM BARs (Matt Evans)
- Add Intel QAT, DSA, IAA devices to whitelist (Lukas Wunner)
Endpoint framework:
- Add endpoint controller APIs for use by function drivers to
discover auxiliary blocks like DMA engines (Koichiro Den)
- Remember DesignWare eDMA engine base/size and expose them via the
EPC aux-resource API (Koichiro Den)
- Add endpoint embedded doorbell fallback, used if MSI allocation
fails (Koichiro Den)
- Validate BAR index and remove dead BAR read in endpoint doorbell
test (Carlos Bilbao)
- Unwind MSI/MSI-X vectors if NTB initialization fails part-way
through (Koichiro Den)
- Cache sleepable pci_irq_vector() value at ISR setup to avoid
calling it from hardirq context (Koichiro Den)
- Call sleepable pci_epc_raise_irq() from a work item instead of
atomic context, e.g., when setting bits in NTB peer doorbells in
the ntb_peer_db_set() path (Koichiro Den)
- Report 0-based vNTB doorbell vector to account for link event 0 and
historically skipped slot 1 (Koichiro Den)
- Prevent configfs writes to vNTB db_count and other values that are
already in use after EPC attach (Koichiro Den)
- Account for vNTB db_valid reserved slots (link event 0 and
historically skipped slot 1) so they don't appear as valid
doorbells (Koichiro Den)
- Implement vNTB .db_vector_count()/mask() for doorbells so clients
can use multiple vectors and avoid thundering herds (Koichiro Den)
- Report 0-based NTB doorbell vector to account for link event 0 and
historically skipped slot 1 (Koichiro Den)
- Fix doorbell bitmask and IRQ vector handling to clear only
specified bits, use the correct vector for non-contiguous Linux IRQ
numbers, and validate incoming vectors (Koichiro Den)
- Implement NTB .db_vector_count()/mask() for doorbells so clients
can use multiple vectors (Koichiro Den)
Native PCIe controller infrastructure:
- Add pci_host_common_link_train_delay() for the mandatory delay
after > 5GT/s Link training completes and use it for cadence HPA,
j721e, LGA; dwc; aardvark, mediatek-gen3, rzg3s (Hans Zhang)
- Protect root bus removal with rescan lock in altera, brcmstb,
cadence, dwc, iproc, mediatek, plda, rockchip to prevent
use-after-free or crashes when racing with sysfs rescan or hotplug
(Hans Zhang)
- Add pci_host_common_parse_ports() for use by any native driver to
parse Root Port properties (per-Link features like width, speed,
PHY, power and reset control, etc should be described in Root Port
stanzas, not the host bridge; currently only reset GPIOs
implemented) (Sherry Sun)
New native PCIe controller drivers:
- Add DT binding and driver for UltraRISC DP1000 PCIe controller
(Xincheng Zhang, Jia Wang)
Altera PCIe controller driver:
- Do not dispose of the parent IRQ mapping, which belongs to the
parent interrupt controller (Mahesh Vaidya)

- Propagate devm_add_action_or_reset() failure to fix probe error
path (Shuvam Pandey)
- Add .remove() callback to deinitialize the host bridge and power

- Restore .map_irq() assignment; its removal broke INTx on the iproc
platform bus driver (Mark Tomlinson)
Broadcom STB PCIe controller driver:
- No change, but products using certain WiFi devices may be affected
by removal of CONFIG_PCIE_BUS_* (see above)
Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:
- Move IMX6SX_GPR12_PCIE_TEST_POWERDOWN handling into the core reset
functions (Richard Zhu)
- Assert PERST# before enabling regulators to ensure that even if
power is enabled, endpoint stays inactive until REFCLK is stable
(Sherry Sun)
- Parse reset properties in Root Port nodes (falling back to host
bridge) to help support Key E connectors and the pwrctrl framework
(Sherry Sun)
- Configure i.MX95 REF_USE_PAD before PHY reset (Richard Zhu)
- Assert i.MX95 ref_clk_en after reference clock stabilizes (Richard
Zhu)
- Integrate new pwrctrl API for DTs with Root Port-level power
supplies (Sherry Sun)
Intel Gateway PCIe controller driver:
- Enable clock before PHY init for correct ordering (Florian Eckert)
- Add .start_link() callback so the driver works again (Florian
Eckert)
- Stop overwriting the ATU base address discovered by
dw_pcie_get_resources() (Florian Eckert)
- Add DT 'atu' region since this is hardware-specific, and fall back
to driver default if lacking (Florian Eckert)

(PCIE_T_PVPERL_MS) before deasserting PERST# (Jian Yang)
- Add .shutdown() to assert PERST# before powering down device (Jian
Yang)
- Do full device power down on removal, including asserting PERST#,
when removing driver (Chen-Yu Tsai)

'aspm-l1-entry-delay-ns' DT property (Manikanta Maddireddy)
Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:
- Add Eliza SoC compatible in DT binding (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)
- Set max OPP during resume so DBI register accesses don't fail with
NoC errors (Qiang Yu)

Chundru)
- Add .get_ltssm() callback to get the LTSSM status without DBI,
since DBI may be inaccessible after PME_Turn_Off (Krishna Chaitanya
Chundru)
- Power down PHY via PARF_PHY_CTRL before disabling rails/clocks to
avoid power leakage (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

Currently, legacy_io and legacy_mem are dynamically allocated and created
by pci_create_legacy_files(), with pci_adjust_legacy_attr() updating the
attributes at runtime on Alpha to rename them and shift the size for sparse
addressing.
Convert to four static const attributes (legacy_io, legacy_io_sparse,
legacy_mem, legacy_mem_sparse) with .is_bin_visible() callbacks that use
pci_legacy_has_sparse() to select the appropriate variant per bus. The
sizes are compile-time constants and .size is set directly on each
attribute.
Register the groups in pcibus_groups[] under a HAVE_PCI_LEGACY guard so the
driver model handles creation and removal automatically.
Stub out pci_create_legacy_files() and pci_remove_legacy_files() as the
dynamic creation is no longer needed. Remove the __weak
pci_adjust_legacy_attr(), Alpha's override, and its declaration from both
Alpha and PowerPC asm/pci.h headers.

pci_sriov_resource_alignment() inputs struct pci_dev which it should not
need to alter to calculate alignment.
Make pci_dev pci_sriov_resource_alignment() inputs const. It requires
making pci_iov_resource_size() input const as well.

strncpy() has no remaining callers in the kernel[1]. Remove the
powerpc-specific assembly implementation from both the kernel
(arch/powerpc/lib/string.S) and the boot wrapper
(arch/powerpc/boot/string.S), along with the __HAVE_ARCH_STRNCPY
define and declaration, falling back to the generic version in
lib/string.c.
The boot wrapper's strncpy had no callers in arch/powerpc/boot/.

The MIN_RMA size checks in fadump_setup_param_area() use
(MIN_RMA * 1024 * 1024), which is evaluated in int and can
overflow when MIN_RMA is increased to values such as SZ_2G,
triggering compiler warnings such as:
warning: integer overflow in expression of type 'int'
results in '0' [-Woverflow]
Define MIN_RMA directly in bytes using SZ_1M and update the
callers accordingly. This avoids repeated unit conversions and
prevents integer overflow.
Also convert MIN_RMA back to MB when populating the firmware
architecture vector, since firmware expects the value in MB.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"SMP load-balancing updates:
- A large series to introduce infrastructure for cache-aware load
balancing, with the goal of co-locating tasks that share data
within the same Last Level Cache (LLC) domain. By improving cache

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Reduce pipe->mutex contention by pre-allocating pages outside the
lock in anon_pipe_write().
anon_pipe_write() called alloc_page() once per page while holding
pipe->mutex. The allocation can sleep doing direct reclaim and runs
memcg charging, which extends the critical section and stalls any
concurrent reader on the same mutex. Now up to 8 pages are
pre-allocated before the mutex is taken, leftovers are recycled
into the per-pipe tmp_page[] cache before unlock, and any remainder
is released after unlock, keeping the allocator out of the critical
section on both sides. On a writers x readers sweep with 64KB
writes against a 1 MB pipe throughput improves 6-28% and average
write latency drops 5-22%; under memory pressure - when the cost of
holding the mutex across reclaim is highest - throughput improves
21-48% and latency drops 17-33%. The microbenchmark is added to
selftests.
- uaccess/sockptr: fix the ignored_trailing logic in
copy_struct_to_user() to behave as documented and the usize check
in copy_struct_from_sockptr() for user pointers, and add
copy_struct_{from,to}_bounce_buffer() and copy_struct_to_sockptr()
helpers for upcoming users (IPPROTO_SMBDIRECT, IPPROTO_QUIC).
- bpf: add a sleepable bpf_real_inode() kfunc that resolves the real
inode backing a dentry via d_real_inode(). On overlayfs the inode
attached to the dentry doesn't carry the underlying device
information; this is used by the filesystem restriction BPF program
that was merged into systemd.
- docs: add guidelines for submitting new filesystems, motivated by
the maintenance burden abandoned and untestable filesystems impose
on VFS developers, blocking infrastructure work like folio
conversions and iomap migration.
Fixes:
- libfs: set SB_I_NOEXEC and SB_I_NODEV by default in init_pseudo()
and drop the now-redundant assignments in callers. This began as a
one-line dma-buf fix for a path_noexec() warning; a pseudo
filesystem has no reason not to set SB_I_NOEXEC. All init_pseudo()
callers were audited: the only visible effect is on dma-buf where
SB_I_NOEXEC silences the warning.
- Handle set_blocksize() failures in legacy filesystems (bfs, hpfs,
qnx4, jfs, befs, affs, isofs, minix, ntfs3, omfs). Mounting a
device with a sector size > PAGE_SIZE crashed roughly half of them;
the rest had the same missing error handling pattern. Plus a
follow-up releasing the superblock buffer_head when setting the
minix v3 block size fails.
- mount: honour SB_NOUSER in the new mount API.
- fs/fcntl: fix a SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order in fasync signaling by
switching the process-group paths of send_sigio() and send_sigurg()
from read_lock(&tasklist_lock) to RCU, matching the single-PID
path.
- vfs: add an FS_USERNS_DELEGATABLE flag and set it for NFS, fixing
delegated NFS mounts (fsopen() in a container with the mount
performed by a privileged daemon) that broke when non-init
s_user_ns was tied to FS_USERNS_MOUNT.
- selftests/namespaces: fix a hang in nsid_test where an unreaped
grandchild kept the TAP pipe write-end open, a waitpid(-1) race in
listns_efault_test, and a false FAIL on kernels without listns()
where the tests should SKIP.
- filelock: fix the break_lease() stub signature for
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING=n.
- init/initramfs_test: wait for the async initramfs unpacking before
running; the test and do_populate_rootfs() share the parser state.
- fs/coredump: reduce redundant log noise in
validate_coredump_safety().
- iomap: pass the correct length to fserror_report_io() in
__iomap_write_begin().
- backing-file: fix the backing_file_open() kerneldoc.
Cleanups:
- initramfs: refactor the cpio hex header parsing to use hex2bin()
instead of the hand-rolled simple_strntoul() which is reverted, and
extend the initramfs KUnit tests to cover header fields with 0x
prefixes.
- Replace __get_free_pages() and friends with kmalloc()/kzalloc()
across quota, proc, ocfs2/dlm, nilfs2, nfs, nfsd, libfs, jfs, jbd2,
isofs, fuse, select, namespace, configfs, binfmt_misc, bfs, and the
do_mounts init code - part of the larger work of replacing page
allocator calls with kmalloc().
- Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in unlock_buffer() and
journal_end_buffer_io_sync() instead of open-coding the sequence.
- Drop unused VFS exports: unexport drop_super_exclusive(), remove
start_removing_user_path_at(), and fold __start_removing_path()
into start_removing_path().
- fs/read_write: narrow the __kernel_write() export with
EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_MODULES().
- vfs: uapi: retire octal and hex constants in favor of (1 << n) for
the O_ flags. Finding a free bit for a new flag across the
architectures was needlessly hard with the mixed bases.
- dcache: add extra sanity checks of dead dentries in dentry_free()
via a new DENTRY_WARN_ONCE() that also prints d_flags.
- iov_iter: use kmemdup_array() in dup_iter() to harden the
allocation against multiplication overflow.
- fs/pipe: write to ->poll_usage only once.
- vfs: remove an always-taken if-branch in find_next_fd().
- dcache: use kmalloc_flex() for struct external_name in __d_alloc().
- namei: use QSTR() instead of QSTR_INIT() in path_pts().
- sync_file_range: delete dead S_ISLNK code.
- Comment fixes: retire a stale comment in fget_task_next() and fix
assorted spelling mistakes"

With the implementation of masked user access, we always have a memory
gap between user memory space and kernel memory space, so use it to
simplify access_ok() by relying on access fault in case of an access
in the gap.
Most of the time the size is known at build time.
On powerpc64, the kernel space starts at 0x8000000000000000 which is
always more than two times TASK_USER_MAX so when the size is known at
build time and lower than TASK_USER_MAX, only the address needs to be
verified. If not, a binary or of address and size must be lower than
TASK_USER_MAX. As TASK_USER_MAX is a power of 2, just check that
there is no bit set outside of TASK_USER_MAX - 1 mask.
On powerpc32, there is a garanteed gap of 128KB so when the size is
known at build time and not greater than 128KB, just check that the
address is below TASK_SIZE. Otherwise use the original formula.

This happens since __do_page_fault ends up enabling the interrupts and
it could take significant time such that need_resched could be set. This
leads to schedule call in irqentry_exit leading to the bug.
There are many such irq handlers which enables the interrupts.
Fix it by disabling the irq before calling irqentry_exit. The same
pattern exists today in interrupt_exit_kernel_prepare.

A recent build failure[1] exposed the diffculty of working with the
current octal and hex definitions of O_ flags when trying to find a gap
for a new flag. This difficulty is compounded by the fact that O_ flags
may have architectural specific values.
Replace the hex/octal #defines, which are hard to parse when looking for
free bits, with explicit bit shifts like (1 << 11). Also, add comments
that identify which architectures redefine some of the seemingly free
("cursed") bits in uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h. These should not be used to
define new O_ flags (for now, at least).
The translastion was done with Claude Opus 4.8, and verified with a
(non-AI) gawk script. The accounting of which architectures claim
which bit-gaps in uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h is also done by hand.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

The mdacon driver supports using ISA MDA or Hercules-compatible display
adapters as a secondary text console. This was commonly used in the
1990s and earlier for debugging software which took over the primary
display. It is highly unlikely anyone is doing so nowadays because
serial consoles and much better methods of debugging exist.
The driver is not enabled by any defconfig, nor any of the
dozens of distro configs collected at [1]. It has been relegated to VTs
13-16 since commit 0b9cf3aa6b1e ("mdacon messing up default vc's - set
default to vc13-16 again") in Linux 2.6.27 (and before Linux 2.5.53 -
see the link in the message of the above commit). The change in 2.6.27
was done because it was incorrectly detecting non-MDA adapters as MDA
and taking over all VTs, rendering them unusable.
Furthermore, vgacon supports using MDA/Hercules-compatible adapters as
the primary text console, so any systems with only one of these
adapters were already using vgacon and will not experience any loss in
functionality from the removal of this driver.
Given all of these factors, the mdacon driver is likely entirely
unused. Remove it.

Enable the generic IRQ entry/exit infrastructure on PowerPC by selecting
GENERIC_ENTRY and integrating the architecture-specific interrupt and
syscall handlers with the generic entry/exit APIs.
This change replaces PowerPC’s local interrupt entry/exit handling with
calls to the generic irqentry_* helpers, aligning the architecture with
the common kernel entry model. The macros that define interrupt, async,
and NMI handlers are updated to use irqentry_enter()/irqentry_exit()
and irqentry_nmi_enter()/irqentry_nmi_exit() where applicable also
convert the PowerPC syscall entry and exit paths to use the generic
entry/exit framework and integrating with the common syscall handling
routines.
Key updates include:
- The architecture now selects GENERIC_ENTRY in Kconfig.
- Replace interrupt_enter/exit_prepare() with arch_interrupt_* helpers.
- Integrate irqentry_enter()/exit() in standard and async interrupt paths.
- Integrate irqentry_nmi_enter()/exit() in NMI handlers.
- Remove redundant irq_enter()/irq_exit() calls now handled generically.
- Use irqentry_exit_cond_resched() for preemption checks.
- interrupt.c and syscall.c are simplified to delegate context
management and user exit handling to the generic entry path.
- The new pt_regs field `exit_flags` introduced earlier is now used
to carry per-syscall exit state flags (e.g. _TIF_RESTOREALL).
- Remove unused code.
This change establishes the necessary wiring for PowerPC to use the
generic IRQ entry/exit framework while maintaining existing semantics.
This aligns PowerPC with the common entry code used by other
architectures and reduces duplicated logic around syscall tracing,
context tracking, and signal handling.

Move interrupt entry and exit helper routines from interrupt.h into the
PowerPC-specific entry-common.h header as a preparatory step for enabling
the generic entry/exit framework.
This consolidation places all PowerPC interrupt entry/exit handling in a
single common header, aligning with the generic entry infrastructure.
The helpers provide architecture-specific handling for interrupt and NMI
entry/exit sequences, including:
- arch_interrupt_enter/exit_prepare()
- arch_interrupt_async_enter/exit_prepare()
- arch_interrupt_nmi_enter/exit_prepare()
- Supporting helpers such as nap_adjust_return(), check_return_regs_valid(),
debug register maintenance, and soft mask handling.
The functions are copied verbatim from interrupt.h.Subsequent patches will
integrate these routines into the generic entry/exit flow.
No functional change intended.

Add a new field `exit_flags` in the pt_regs structure. This field will hold
the flags set during interrupt or syscall execution that are required during
exit to user mode.
Specifically, the `TIF_RESTOREALL` flag, stored in this field, helps the
exit routine determine if any NVGPRs were modified and need to be restored
before returning to userspace.
This addition ensures a clean and architecture-specific mechanism to track
per-syscall or per-interrupt state transitions related to register restore.
Changes:
- Add `exit_flags` and `__pt_regs_pad` to maintain 16-byte stack alignment
- Update asm-offsets.c and ptrace.c for offset and validation
- Update PT_* constants in uapi header to reflect the new layout

This patch contains no functional changes, it is purely preparatory for
enabling the generic syscall and interrupt entry path on PowerPC.

This patch introduces preparatory changes needed to support building
PowerPC with the generic entry/exit (irqentry) framework.
The following infrastructure updates are added:
- Add a syscall_work field to struct thread_info to hold SYSCALL_WORK_* flags.
- Provide a stub implementation of arch_syscall_is_vdso_sigreturn(),
returning false for now.
- Introduce on_thread_stack() helper to detect if the current stack pointer
lies within the task’s kernel stack.
These additions enable later integration with the generic entry/exit
infrastructure while keeping existing PowerPC behavior unchanged.
No functional change is intended in this patch.

Rename arch_irq_disabled_regs() to regs_irqs_disabled() to align with the
naming used in the generic irqentry framework. This makes the function
available for use both in the PowerPC architecture code and in the
common entry/exit paths shared with other architectures.
This is a preparatory change for enabling the generic irqentry framework
on PowerPC.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Add support for CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_CHECK and enable it in
debug_defconfig. s390 can only tell user from kernel PTEs via the mm,
so mm_struct is now passed into pxx_user_accessible_page() callbacks
- Expose the PCI function UID as an arch-specific slot attribute in
sysfs so a function can be identified by its user-defined id while
still in standby. Introduces a generic ARCH_PCI_SLOT_GROUPS hook in
drivers/pci/slot.c
- Refresh s390 PCI documentation to reflect current behavior and cover
previously undocumented sysfs attributes
- zcrypt device driver cleanup series: consistent field types, clearer
variable naming, a kernel-doc warning fix, and a comment explaining
the intentional synchronize_rcu() in pkey_handler_register()
- Provide an s390 arch_raw_cpu_ptr() that avoids the detour via
get_lowcore() using alternatives, shrinking defconfig by ~27 kB
- Guard identity-base randomization with kaslr_enabled() so nokaslr
keeps the identity mapping at 0 even with RANDOMIZE_IDENTITY_BASE=y
- Build S390_MODULES_SANITY_TEST as a module only by requiring KUNIT &&
m, since built-in would not exercise module loading
- Remove the permanently commented-out HMCDRV_DEV_CLASS create_class()
code in the hmcdrv driver
- Drop stale ident_map_size extern conflicting with asm/page.h

A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
quote Christoph:
"The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
code.
Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
overhead"

This series cleans up some of the special user copy functions naming and
semantics. In particular, get rid of the (very traditional) double
underscore names and behavior: the whole "optimize away the range check"
model has been largely excised from the other user accessors because
it's so subtle and can be unsafe, but also because it's just not a
relevant optimization any more.
To do that, a couple of drivers that misused the "user" copies as kernel
copies in order to get non-temporal stores had to be fixed up, but that
kind of code should never have been allowed anyway.
The x86-only "nocache" version was also renamed to more accurately
reflect what it actually does.
This was all done because I looked at this code due to a report by Jann
Horn, and I just couldn't stand the inconsistent naming, the horrible
semantics, and the random misuse of these functions. This code should
probably be cleaned up further, but it's at least slightly closer to
normal semantics.
I had a more intrusive series that went even further in trying to
normalize the semantics, but that ended up hitting so many other
inconsistencies between different architectures in this area (eg
'size_t' vs 'unsigned long' vs 'int' as size arguments, and various
iovec check differences that Vasily Gorbik pointed out) that I ended up
with this more limited version that fixed the worst of the issues.

In order to be able to do this, we need to change VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS
and friends and update the architecture-specific definitions also.
We then have to update some KSM logic to handle VMA flags, and introduce
VMA_STACK_FLAGS to define the vma_flags_t equivalent of VM_STACK_FLAGS.
We also introduce two helper functions for use during the time we are
converting legacy flags to vma_flags_t values - vma_flags_to_legacy() and
legacy_to_vma_flags().
This enables us to iteratively make changes to break these changes up into
separate parts.
We use these explicitly here to keep VM_STACK_FLAGS around for certain
users which need to maintain the legacy vm_flags_t values for the time
being.
We are no longer able to rely on the simple VM_xxx being set to zero if
the feature is not enabled, so in the case of VM_DROPPABLE we introduce
VMA_DROPPABLE as the vma_flags_t equivalent, which is set to
EMPTY_VMA_FLAGS if the droppable flag is not available.
While we're here, we make the description of do_brk_flags() into a kdoc
comment, as it almost was already.
We use vma_flags_to_legacy() to not need to update the vm_get_page_prot()
logic as this time.
Note that in create_init_stack_vma() we have to replace the BUILD_BUG_ON()
with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() as the tested values are no longer build time
available.
We also update mprotect_fixup() to use VMA flags where possible, though we
have to live with a little duplication between vm_flags_t and vma_flags_t
values for the time being until further conversions are made.
While we're here, update VM_SPECIAL to be defined in terms of
VMA_SPECIAL_FLAGS now we have vma_flags_to_legacy().
Finally, we update the VMA tests to reflect these changes.

Patch series "change young flag check functions to return bool", v2.
This is a cleanup patchset to change all young flag check functions to
return bool, as discussed with David in the previous thread[1]. Since
callers only care about whether the young flag was set, returning bool
makes the intention clearer. No functional changes intended.
This patch (of 6):
Callers use ptep_test_and_clear_young() to clear the young flag and check
whether it was set. Change the return type to bool to make the intention
clearer.

Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.
Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).
Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).
ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.
For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:
* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page
/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */
that unfortunately had to go :)

Move the asm/xor.h headers to lib/raid/xor/$(SRCARCH)/xor_arch.h and
include/linux/raid/xor_impl.h to lib/raid/xor/xor_impl.h so that the
xor.ko module implementation is self-contained in lib/raid/.
As this remove the asm-generic mechanism a new kconfig symbol is added to
indicate that a architecture-specific implementations exists, and
xor_arch.h should be included.

Commit 861574d51bbd ("powerpc/uaccess: Implement masked user access")
provides optimised user access by avoiding the cost of access_ok().
Convert csum_and_copy_to_user() and csum_and_copy_from_user() to
scoped user access to benefit from masked user access.
csum_and_copy_to_user() and csum_and_copy_from_user() are only
called respectively by csum_and_copy_to_iter() and
csum_and_copy_from_iter_full() and they are only called twice.
Those functions used to be large but they were first reduced by
commit c693cc4676a0 ("saner calling conventions for
csum_and_copy_..._user()") then commit 70d65cd555c5 ("ppc: propagate
the calling conventions change down to csum_partial_copy_generic()").
With the additional size reduction provided by conversion to scoped
user access they are not worth being kept out of line.

When elfcorehdr is prepared for kdump, the program header representing
the first 64 KB of memory is expected to have its offset point to the
backup region. This is required because purgatory copies the first 64 KB
of the crashed kernel memory to this backup region following a kernel
crash. This allows the capture kernel to use the first 64 KB of memory
to place the exception vectors and other required data.
When elfcorehdr is recreated due to memory hotplug, the offset of
the program header representing the first 64 KB is not updated.
As a result, the capture kernel exports the first 64 KB at offset
0, even though the data actually resides in the backup region.
Fix this by calling sync_backup_region_phdr() to update the program
header offset in the elfcorehdr created during memory hotplug.
sync_backup_region_phdr() works for images loaded via the
kexec_file_load syscall. However, it does not work for kexec_load,
because image->arch.backup_start is not initialized in that case.
So introduce machine_kexec_post_load() to process the elfcorehdr
prepared by kexec-tools and initialize image->arch.backup_start for
kdump images loaded via kexec_load syscall.
Rename update_backup_region_phdr() to sync_backup_region_phdr() and
extend it to synchronize the backup region offset between the kdump
image and the ELF core header. The helper now supports updating either
the kdump image from the ELF program header or updating the ELF program
header from the kdump image, avoiding code duplication.
Define ARCH_HAS_KIMAGE_ARCH and struct kimage_arch when
CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE or CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is enabled so that
kimage->arch.backup_start is available with the kexec_load system call.
This patch depends on the patch titled
"powerpc/crash: fix backup region offset update to elfcorehdr".

This finishes the work on these odd functions that were only implemented
by a handful of architectures.
The 'flushcache' function was only used from the iterator code, and
let's make it do the same thing that the nontemporal version does:
remove the two underscores and add the user address checking.
Yes, yes, the user address checking is also done at iovec import time,
but we have long since walked away from the old double-underscore thing
where we try to avoid address checking overhead at access time, and
these functions shouldn't be so special and old-fashioned.
The arm64 version already did the address check, in fact, so there it's
just a matter of renaming it. For powerpc and x86-64 we now do the
proper user access boilerplate.

This allows us to extend the PFN mappings, e.g. PCI MMIO bars where
it can grow as large as 8GB or even bigger, to map at PMD / PUD level.
VFIO PCI core driver already supports fault handling at PMD / PUD level
for more efficient BAR mappings.
