Remove the cxlflash driver for IBM CAPI Flash devices.
The cxlflash driver has received minimal maintenance for some time, and
the CAPI Flash hardware that uses it is no longer commercially available.
Thanks to Uma Krishnan, Matthew Ochs and Manoj Kumar for their work on
this driver over the years.

Some targets use the test kernel configuration.
Executing defconfig in the same make invocation as those targets results
in errors as the configuration may be in an inconsistent state during
reconfiguration.
Avoid this by introducing ordering dependencies between the defconfig
and some other targets.

The network namespaces and the veth used by the tests have hardcoded
names that can conflict with other tests during parallel runs.
Use the append_tid() helper to ensure the uniqueness of these names.
Use the static network configuration table as a template on which
thread IDs are appended in each test.
Set a fixed size to remote_addr field so the struct veth_configuration
can also have a fixed size.

The BPF program attached to each veth is hardcoded through the
use of the struct skeletons. It prevents from re-using the initialization
code in new test cases.
Replace the struct skeletons by a bpf_object table.
Add a struct prog_configuration that holds the name of BPF program to
load on a given veth pair.
Use bpf_object__find_program_by_name() / bpf_xdp_attach() API instead of
bpf_program__attach_xdp() to retrieve the BPF programs from their names.
Detach BPF progs in the cleanup() as it's not automatically done by this

configure_network() does two things : it first creates the network
topology and then configures the BPF maps to fit the test needs. This
isn't convenient if we want to re-use the same network topology for
different test cases.
Rename configure_network() create_network().
Move the BPF configuration to the test itself.
Split the test description in two parts, first the description of the
network topology, then the description of the test case.

In the struct veth_configuration, the next_veth string is used to tell
the next virtual interface to which packets must be redirected to. So it
has to match the local_veth string of an other veth_configuration.
Change next_veth type to int to avoid handling two identical strings.
This integer is used as an offset in the network configuration table.

There are two bpf_link__destroy(freplace_link) calls in
test_tailcall_bpf2bpf_freplace(). After the first bpf_link__destroy()
is called, if the following bpf_map_{update,delete}_elem() throws an
exception, it will jump to the "out" label and call bpf_link__destroy()
again, causing double free and eventually leading to a segfault.
Fix it by directly resetting freplace_link to NULL after the first
bpf_link__destroy() call.

Commit 4094871db1 ("udp: only do GSO if # of segs > 1") avoided GSO
for small packets. But the kernel currently dismisses GSO requests only
after checking MTU/PMTU on gso_size. This means any packets, regardless
of their payload sizes, could be dropped when PMTU becomes smaller than
requested gso_size. We encountered this issue in production and it
caused a reliability problem that new QUIC connection cannot be
established before PMTU cache expired, while non GSO sockets still
worked fine at the same time.
Ideally, do not check any GSO related constraints when payload size is
smaller than requested gso_size, and return EMSGSIZE instead of EINVAL
on MTU/PMTU check failure to be more specific on the error cause.

- bgmac: reduce max frame size to support just 1500 bytes; the
jumbo frame support would previously cause OOB writes, but now

There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.

provides some cleanups to memcg's hugetlb charging logic
- "mm/swap_cgroup: remove global swap cgroup lock" from Kairui Song
removes the global swap cgroup lock. A speedup of 10% for a
tmpfs-based kernel build was demonstrated
- "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky
has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of
zram_write_page(). A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated
- "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin
Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare
use-after-free race is fixed
- "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes
simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging
logic
- "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up
and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in
improvements in accounting accuracy
- "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new
core functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes
DAMON's sysfs file interface logic
- "mm/damon: enable page level properties based monitoring" from
SeongJae Park increases the amount of information which is
presented in response to DAMOS actions
- "mm/damon: remove DAMON debugfs interface" from SeongJae Park
removes DAMON's long-deprecated debugfs interfaces. Thus the
migration to sysfs is completed
- "mm/hugetlb: Refactor hugetlb allocation resv accounting" from
Peter Xu cleans up and generalizes the hugetlb reservation
accounting
- "mm: alloc_pages_bulk: small API refactor" from Luiz Capitulino
removes a never-used feature of the alloc_pages_bulk() interface
- "mm/damon: extend DAMOS filters for inclusion" from SeongJae Park
extends DAMOS filters to support not only exclusion (rejecting),
but also inclusion (allowing) behavior
- "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi
introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently
overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to
reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of
memory descriptors
- "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes
and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was
demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel
build time with swap-on-zram
- "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal"
from Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that
mmap_region() can be made MM-internal
- "mm/mglru: performance optimizations" from Yu Zhao fixes a few
MGLRU regressions and otherwise improves MGLRU performance
- "Docs/mm/damon: add tuning guide and misc updates" from SeongJae
Park updates DAMON documentation
- "Cleanup for memfd_create()" from Isaac Manjarres does that thing
- "mm: hugetlb+THP folio and migration cleanups" from David
Hildenbrand provides various cleanups in the areas of hugetlb
folios, THP folios and migration
- "Uncached buffered IO" from Jens Axboe implements the new
RWF_DONTCACHE flag which provides synchronous dropbehind for
pagecache reading and writing. To permite userspace to address
issues with massive buildup of useless pagecache when
reading/writing fast devices
- "selftests/mm: virtual_address_range: Reduce memory" from Thomas
Weißschuh fixes and optimizes some of the MM selftests"
