Regarding the allocator code that is commonly used in the ondisk inode
metadata file ifile and the disk address translation metadata file DAT,
convert the parts that use the deprecated kmap_atomic() and kmap() to use
kmap_local.
Most can be converted directly, but only
nilfs_palloc_prepare_alloc_entry() needs to be rewritten to change mapping
sections so that multiple kmap_local/kunmap_local calls are nested and
disk I/O can be avoided within the mapping sections.

Patch series "nilfs2: eliminate kmap and kmap_atomic calls".
This series converts remaining kmap and kmap_atomic calls to use
kmap_local, mainly in metadata files, and eliminates calls to these
deprecated kmap functions from nilfs2.
This series does not include converting metadata files to use folios, but
it is a step in that direction.
Most conversions are straightforward, but some are not: the checkpoint
file, the inode file, and the persistent object allocator. These have
been adjusted or rewritten to avoid multiple kmap_local calls or nest them
if necessary, and to eliminate long waits like block I/O within the
highmem mapping sections.
This series has been tested in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments with
varying block sizes.
This patch (of 15):
In the recovery function when mounting, nilfs_recovery_copy_block() uses
the deprecated kmap_atomic(), so convert it to use kmap_local.

Instead of popping only the maximum element from the heap during each
iteration, we now pop the two largest elements at once. Although this
introduces an additional comparison to determine the second largest
element, it enables a reduction in the height of the tree by one during
the heapify operations starting from root's left/right child. This
reduction in tree height by one leads to a decrease of one comparison and
one swap.
This optimization results in saving approximately 0.5 * n swaps without
increasing the number of comparisons. Additionally, the heap size during
heapify is now one less than the original size, offering a chance for
further reduction in comparisons and swaps.
The following experimental data is based on the array generated using
get_random_u32().
| N | swaps (old) | swaps (new) | comparisons (old) | comparisons (new) |
|-------|-------------|-------------|-------------------|-------------------|
| 1000 | 9054 | 8569 | 10328 | 10320 |

Patch series "lib/sort: Optimize the number of swaps and comparisons".
This patch series aims to optimize the heapsort algorithm, specifically
targeting a reduction in the number of swaps and comparisons required.
This patch (of 2):
Currently, when searching for the sift-down path and encountering equal
elements, the algorithm chooses the left child. However, considering that
the height of the right subtree may be one less than that of the left
subtree, selecting the right child in such cases can potentially reduce
the number of comparisons and swaps.
For instance, when sorting an array of 10,000 identical elements, the
current implementation requires 247,209 comparisons. With this patch, the
number of comparisons can be reduced to 227,241.

Patch series "Allow to change ipc/mq sysctls inside ipc namespace", v3.
Right now ipc and mq limits count as per ipc namespace, but only real root
can change them. By default, the current values of these limits are such
that it can only be reduced. Since only root can change the values, it is
impossible to reduce these limits in the rootless container.
We can allow limit changes within ipc namespace because mq parameters are
limited by RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE and ipc parameters are not limited to anything
other than cgroups.
This patch (of 3):
Rootless containers are not allowed to modify kernel IPC parameters.
All default limits are set to such high values that in fact there are no
limits at all. All limits are not inherited and are initialized to
default values when a new ipc_namespace is created.
For new ipc_namespace:
size_t ipc_ns.shm_ctlmax = SHMMAX; // (ULONG_MAX - (1UL << 24))
size_t ipc_ns.shm_ctlall = SHMALL; // (ULONG_MAX - (1UL << 24))
int ipc_ns.shm_ctlmni = IPCMNI; // (1 << 15)
int ipc_ns.shm_rmid_forced = 0;
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmax = MSGMAX; // 8192
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmni = MSGMNI; // 32000
unsigned int ipc_ns.msg_ctlmnb = MSGMNB; // 16384
The shm_tot (total amount of shared pages) has also ceased to be global,
it is located in ipc_namespace and is not inherited from anywhere.
In such conditions, it cannot be said that these limits limit anything.
The real limiter for them is cgroups.
If we allow rootless containers to change these parameters, then it can
only be reduced.

Optimize the min_heapify() function, resulting in a significant reduction
of approximately 50% in the number of comparisons for large random inputs,
while maintaining identical results.
The current implementation performs two comparisons per level to identify
the minimum among three elements. In contrast, the proposed bottom-up
variation uses only one comparison per level to assess two children until
reaching the leaves. Then, it sifts up until the correct position is
determined.
Typically, the process of sifting down proceeds to the leaf level,
resulting in O(1) secondary comparisons instead of log2(n). This
optimization significantly reduces the number of costly indirect function
calls and improves overall performance.

The normal __printf(x,y) adding can't fix it. So add workaround which
