Pull x86 mm updates from Dave Hansen:
 "There are two things in here of note. First, there are fixes to reduce
  the time that the TLB flushing code sits around with interrupts
  disabled. It should be well tested, but it's certainly something to
  keep an eye on.

  Second is a little back-and-forth in the interactions between the
  set_memory*() locking and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. There was a slightly
  painful re-discovery of why DEBUG_PAGEALLOC has special locking rules,
  but the code did end up better for it.

  Summary:

   - Fix pkey_alloc() return value when pkeys are not supported

   - Allow preemption during IPI completion waiting to improve wakeup
     latency

   - Convert more x86 page table code to ptdescs

   - Fixes and cleanups for set_memory*() locking, mostly around large
     pages"

Pull timer and timekeeping core updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Fix a subtly inconsistency in the timekeeping code, which fails to
   account for the monotonicity adjustment in ntp_error.

   For small changes of the clocksource multiplicator (+/-1) which are
   typically used by the NTP PLL this is hard to observe. But for larger
   adjustments, e.g. caused by a direct frequency setting through
   adjtimex() the one-time uncompensated offset is significant.

   Cure this by adjusting ntp_error with the resulting offset so that
   the discrepancy is smoothed away over time

 - Make tick length calculations correct in NTP.

   The timekeeping core takes the quantisation of the clocksource into
   account when calculating the tick length to compensate for the
   deviation of the nominal NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH.

   While timekeeping gets this right, NTP is not aware of that, which
   means it operates on the nominal value and not on the actual value
   which is determined by the clock source frequency. The rounding of a
   coarse clocksource like the ACPI PM timer results in a +127 PPM
   deviation.

   Cure this by exposing the deviation to the NTP code so that it can
   operate on the same data as the timekeeping core. This is purely
   kernel internal. User space still sees the nominal tick lenght via
   adjtimex().

 - The accuracy of the NTP adjustments is fairly approximate as the code
   assumes that the invocations are precisely in NTP interval frequency
   ticks and the final adjustment can over and under-run.

   Cure this by adjusting ntp_error by the intended skew on each tick to
   achieve the desired rate.

 - Handle the two competing skews of time offset and time adjustment
   correctly by calculating the conflict portion between the skews and
   adjusting both accordingly.

 - A set of updates and improvements for the selftests

 - The usual small fixes and improvements all over the place

Pull treewide timer related cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Remove the leftover CLOCK_TICK_RATE which has been scheduled for
   removal more than a decade ago along with some now empty asm/timex.h
   files.

 - Consolidate delay timer calibration

   The construct of having a define in a header requires that
   architectures provided asm/timex.h for no reason. Also the function
   name for reading the delay timer is confusing at best.

   Use a config switch to enable that functionality and rename the
   function to delay_read_timer() to make the purpose clear.

   This removes some more now empty asm/timex.h files as well.

Pull SMP core updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Reduce the preemption disabled sections in smp_call_function*().

   The various smp call functions keep preemption disabled accross the
   full operation which includes the wait for completion. Especially the
   latter can take some time when one of the target CPUs is not
   immediately responding to the IPI, which can result in large latency
   spikes.

   To improve this provide a per task CPU mask to track the CPUs to wait
   for. That makes the information required for the wait task local and
   therefore allows to reenable preemption before the wait.

   While this comes with moderate extra memory cost this reduces SMP
   function call induced latency measured in a fleet for high priority
   tasks from ~17ms to ~1.5ms (~90%).

 - Reduce the overhead of the CSD debug code by replacing the heavy
   memory barriers with smp_store_release()/acquire()

Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Make syscall user dispatching configurable

   Not all architectures can makes use of syscall user dispatching.
   Allow them to disable the feature completely.

 - Consolidate stack randomization for the generic entry code and the
   architectures using it.

   Stack randomization on syscall entry was sprinkled throughout the
   architecture specific low level entry code and in some cases at the
   wrong points, e.g. before establishing state, which violates the
   non-instrumentable constraints of that code.

   Clean this up by integrating stack randomization into the generic
   entry code helpers so that it is invoked at the earliest possible
   point right after establishing state and converting all generic entry
   code using architecture over.

 - Clean up the syscall number handling in the generic entry code. It
   works correctly for architectures which have a separate return value
   storage in pt_regs, but fails to distinguish the case where user
   space handed in -1 as syscall number from the case where the entry
   code rejects it by returning -1 to the callers. Aside of that the
   return value functionality of those interfaces is not really
   intuitive.

   Fix this by separating the decision to reject a syscall (user
   dispatch, ptrace, seccomp ...) from the potential modification of the
   syscall number through these mechanisms.

   This solves most of the problems for architectures which do not have
   a separate return value storage in pt_regs except for the case where
   a tracepoint has a BPF script or a probe attached which overwrite
   both the syscall number and the return value. But that's a problem
   which cannot be solved in the generic code, that only can be
   addressed by separating the storage model in the affected
   architectures.

 "Load-balancing updates:

   - 'flatten the pick': improve cgroup scheduling, which has always
     been problematic and painful, which has caused various scheduling
     misbehavior such as the mishandling of reniced tasks et al.

     Add various cgroup weight distribution methods via cgroup_mode:
     'up', 'max', 'concur' and 'tasks' - with the default being 'concur'
     which is the most precise yet also most expensive version.

     Finally, change cgroup scheduling to a single runqueue (Peter
     Zijlstra)

   - Series to improve the scheduling latency of short slice tasks

 "There's a reasonable amount of stuff here, including a bunch of
  updates to the perf PMU drivers and some MPAM updates to expose the
  memory bandwidth counters via resctrl.

  On the architecture side, some highlights include support for BBML3

   - Preliminary work towards supporting FEAT_NMI, which cleans up our
     IRQ entry code and fixes some latent issues with pseudo-NMI

   - Support for an SDEI backend to trigger an NMI backtrace

  Memory management:

   - Treat all devices as coherent when CLIDR_EL1.LoC == 0

   - Fix no-map handling of sub-page-sized regions

   - Second attempt at unmapping the linear aliases of the kernel data
     and bss sections

   - Fix EFI runtime calls when software-PAN is enabled

  Miscellaneous:

   - Add Mark Rutland as a reviewer!

   - Tidy-up our futex cmpxchg logic when using the new LSUI
     instructions

   - Drop the requirement on DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS when
     selecting HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS

   - Fix a false-positive KCSCAN splat in the delay loop

   - Use a portable typedef for 128-bit scalar types in our UAPI headers

   - Non-critical fixes for Sashiko reports all over

  MPAM:

   - Hook MPAM memory bandwidth counters into resctrl's counter
     assignment interface

   - Fix a quirk in the MPAM bandwidth counting on Nvidia T241 so that
     it also applies to 63 bit counters

  Perf:

   - Workarounds for hardware issues in the CMN-S3 PMU (Graviton 5) and
     CPU PMU (NVIDIA Olympus again!)

   - Add support for the DDR PMU on Marvell CN20K SoCs

   - Add support for Picoheart implementations of the DCW PCIe PMU

   - Add support for Channel/Rank/Bank filtering in the CXL PMU driver

   - Add support for 64-bit counters in the CSPMU device

   - Add support for revision 2 of the CMN S3 PMU

  Ptrace:

   - Fix a decade-old bug in our handling of seccomp and tracing on
     syscall entry

   - Fix regset handling for inactive SVE and SSVE registers

  Selftests

   - Add some tests for the decade-old bug that we just tried to fix in
     our syscall entry path

   - Fix SVE test crash on SME-only CPUs"

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
 "Toolchain and infrastructure:

   - Warn when using 'bindgen' < 0.72.1 with 'libclang' >= 22, since
     that combination may fail to build. It includes a probe for the bug
     in case 'bindgen' happens to be patched, and tests

     In parallel, Nathan updated the instructions for the kernel.org
     LLVM+Rust toolchains so that the latest version of 'bindgen' is
     installed, which should avoid some of these situations

   - Support testing 'rust_is_available.sh' with 'bash' as '/bin/sh'

   - Fix an objtool warning by adding one more 'noreturn' function for
     Rust 1.99.0 (expected 2026-10-01)

   - Fix build error in the 'rusttest' target due to ambiguity when the
     'rustc-dev' component is installed, which was uncovered by the work
     to support Rust's GCC backend ('rustc_codegen_gcc')

   - Fix future Clang warnings in the upcoming powerpc support due to
     macro redefinitions in the UAPI helper header by including the
     arch-aware 'ioctl.h' header

  'kernel' crate:

   - Rework module ownership support:

       - Move the module-related types into a new 'module' module and
         make the 'THIS_MODULE' pointer a constant of 'ModuleMetadata'
         so that modules can provide the pointer in const contexts, and
         add a 'this_module' 'const fn' to retrieve it

         This was enabled by upstream Rust's work on the 'const_mut_refs'
         and 'const_refs_to_static' features which were stabilized back
         in Rust 1.83.0

       - Teach '#[vtable]' to associate implementations with their
         owning module, defaulting to the local one, including fallbacks
         for doctests, uses within the 'kernel' crate (like upcoming
         KUnit '#[test]'s for DRM) and 'rusttest'

       - Set 'fops.owner' from the module pointer for DRM and
         miscdevice

       - Migrate Rust Binder and configfs away from the old
         'THIS_MODULE' 'static' and finally remove it from the 'module!'
         macro

   - 'num' module:

       - Add the new 'casts' module for lossless integer conversions

         Rust's 'core' library's 'From' implementations do not cover
         conversions that are not portable or future-proof. However, the
         kernel supports a narrower set of architectures, which makes it
         helpful to provide more infallible conversions, instead of
         having developers use 'as' casts, which carry the risk of
         silently losing data

         This goes along with previous work we did to avoid casts in
         Rust kernel code since they are more powerful than needed

         Thus, provide safe 'const' conversion functions (e.g.
         'usize_as_u64' and 'u64_into_u8'), as well as the
         'FromSafeCast' and 'IntoSafeCast' extension traits that provide
         conversions that are known to be lossless in the kernel, and an
         'arch' submodule defining conversions that are known to be
         lossless on particular architectures (e.g. 64-bit platforms).
         For instance:

       - Add 'Bounded::shr_exact' method in the vein of 'try_shrink'
         which shifts a bounded right only if it loses no set bits

       - Fix unsoundness issue in the 'Bounded::shr' method by
         rejecting, at compile-time, shifts of at least the type's bit
         width

   - 'fmt' module:

       - Route '{:p}' raw pointer formatting through the kernel's hashed
         '%p' format to prevent address leaks, including support for
         width and padding. Include tests for both 'no_hash_pointers'
         case and the default (hashed) one

       - Fix the '{:p}' forwarding implementation, which could print the
         address of a temporary stack variable

   - 'time' module:

       - Make 'Delta' generic over its time unit, with a default unit of
         nanoseconds ('Nsec'), preserving the existing behavior. Then,
         add a 'Jiffy' time unit

       - Add the 'Delta::as_millis_ceil()' method

       - Fix 'as_micros_ceil()' rounding near 'i64::MAX', which could
         yield a result one microsecond too small

   - 'sync' module:

       - Implement 'ForeignOwnable' for 'ARef<T>', allowing C code to
         own an 'ARef<T>'

       - Add a safe abstraction for 'rcu_barrier()'

   - 'error' module: add all of the remaining error codes, except the
     deprecated compatibility aliases

   - 'bug' module:

       - Fix build error on UML in 'warn_on!' for callers from within
         the 'kernel' crate

       - Fix future 'dead_code' warning on arm and loongarch64 and under
         'CONFIG_BUG=n' in 'warn_on!', which would trigger with the
         upcoming SRCU abstractions

       - Fix future build error in 'rusttest' on cross-compilation
         cases, which would trigger when 'warn_on!' has callers inside
         the 'kernel' crate

   - 'bitfield' module: fix build error for the upcoming support for
     Rust's GCC backend ('rustc_codegen_gcc') by always inlining a
     couple conversions used in tests

  'pin-init' crate:

   - User-visible changes:

       - Merge the '__pinned_init' and '__init' methods and make 'Init'
         a marker trait

       - Introduce public APIs 'raw_init' and 'raw_try_init' to prevent
         users from needing to invoke the internal '__pinned_init' and
         '__init' methods

       - Emit errors for duplicate '#[pin]' attributes

       - Link 'Zeroable::zeroed' and 'pin_init::zeroed' in documentation

   - Other changes:

       - Fix unwind safety issues

       - Clean up lint 'allow' and 'expect's

       - Overhaul '#[cfg]' handling to pave the way for tuple structs
         and self-referential structs

       - Mark many functions as '#[inline]' for better codegen with '-C
         opt-level=s' ('CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE')

  'MAINTAINERS':

   - Update 'MODULE SUPPORT' to cover the new 'module' module

  And some other fixes, cleanups and improvements"

 "As has been the case for quite some time, this set of changes is
  dominated by cpufreq updates including intel-pstate and amd-pstate
  driver updates, minor fixes and cleanups of other assorted cpufreq
  drivers, schedutil governor updates, fixes of the Rust bindings, new
  hardware support (IPQ5210 in qcom-nvmem), and some updates of self
  tests related to cpufreq.

  The second largest group of changes are cpuidle updates consisting of
  intel_idle driver updates and ACPI processor idle driver updates, both
  mostly related to ACPI _LPI support.

  There are also updates related to system sleep, mostly in the
  hibernation core code, two operating performance points (OPP) updates,
  one runtime PM framework update, one power capping update, and some
  tools updates including the addition of ACPI CPPC support to cpupower.

  Specifics:

   - Minor fixes and cleanups in assorted cpufreq drivers (Dan
     Carpenter, Guru Das Srinagesh, Haoxiang Li, Karl Mehltretter, Sasha
     Finkelstein, and Pan Chuang)

   - Fix cpufreq table creation and bios_limits() callback in the Rust
     bindings (Priya Bala Govindasamy)

   - Add IPQ5210 support to qcom-nvmem driver (Varadarajan Narayanan)

     maximum performance value to be passed to drivers and update the
     intel_pstate driver to use it (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Set policy->cur to the actual requested frequency in the
     intel_pstate driver when the performance policy is used (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Simplify HWP handling on Broadwell processors in intel_pstate
     (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Fix setting minimum P-state at init time in intel_pstate (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Consolidate frequency values computation in intel_pstate and clean
     up code in that driver (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Add missing kernel-doc descriptions for structure and union members
     in the amd-pstate driver (David Vernet)

   - Handle missing policy in dynamic EPP callbacks in the amd-pstate
     driver (EDAMAMEX)

   - Introduce EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_PSTATE_UT() to export amd-pstate driver
     symbols to the amd-pstate-ut subdriver (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Add dynamic EPP as an "energy_performance_preference" mode in
     amd-pstate, remove the "amd_dynamic_epp" kernel command line option
     and the "dynamic_epp" sysfs attribute, and update the dynamic_epp
     documentation accordingly (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Add unit tests for CPPC Performance Priority and the "dynamic" EPP
     mode in the amd-pstate driver (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Set min_limit_freq based on bios_min_perf in amd-pstate and remove
     the defensive check for bios_min_perf from it (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Fix EPP return type and handle errors in amd-pstate during
     initialization, toggle auto_sel in active mode on shared memory
     systems, and cache the firmware programmed EPP value (Marco
     Scardovi)

   - Skip tests in amd-pstate-ut if the amd-pstate driver is not in
     active use (Qianheng Peng)

   - Replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in sysfs show in the cpufreq
     schedutil governor and fix a self-contradictory comment in
     sugov_iowait_apply() (Zhongqiu Han)

   - Fix the usage example for the sampling_rate tunable of the ondemand
     cpufreq governor in admin-guide (wangxiaodong)

   - Avoid using deep idle states during initialization in the
     intel_idle driver to work around device handling issues (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Fix and refactor the ACPI processor driver code related to ACPI
     _LPI support and add ACPI _LPI support to intel_idle based on that
     ACPI processor driver update (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Backup and restore governor for cpufreq sptests (Yiwei Lin)

   - Remove unnecessary sudo from quick_shuffle() and remove unused
     local variables from switch_show_governor() in cpufreq selftests
     (Jinseok Kim)

   - Rename the PM core module parameter prefix to "pm" and allow the PM
     transition (DPM) watchdog to be disabled by default (Tzung-Bi Shih)

   - Fix off-by-one in wakelocks number limit check in the system sleep
     sysfs interface (Haowen Tu)

   - Remove kernel-doc markings from helper descriptions in the core
     hibernation code (Adi Nata)

     Rout)

   - Delay allocating and linking the next swap_map_page in the
     hibernation image saving code until another image page actually
     needs to be recorded (Haesung Kim)

   - Fix cleanup ordering around scope-based pointers in OPP (Gregor
     Herburger).

   - Use clk_get_optional() for optional clocks in OPP (Praveen Talari).

     allow drivers to recover from resume issues (Praveen Talari)

   - Handle PMU registration failure during probe in the intel_rapl_tpmi
     driver (Sumeet Pawnikar)

   - Avoid optional imports in intel_pstate_tracer unless they are
     really needed (Yousef Alhouseen)

   - Add generic CPPC performance display to the cpupower utility, build
     and call CPPC information on non-AMD processors, make cpupower
     print kernel and hardware frequency information, and add libm to
     cpupower for generic CPPC view (Jeremy Linton)

Pull ACPI support updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The most significant change here is the elimination of struct
  acpi_driver that has no more users in the tree now along with some
  documentation related to it, and a follow-up update to set the "no PM"
  flag for all ACPI devices that are now only going to play the role of
  other devices' "companions" (in analogy with DT nodes).

  There is also a significant update of irqchip code related to ACPI
  done in order to enable GICv5 IWB ACPI probe ordering detection on
  ARM, which involves RISC-V interrupt controller management code
  refactoring to extract generic code from it into the common ACPI IRQ
  code.

  The rest is mostly fixes, including some fallout of the _OSC handling
  rework in 7.0, ACPI CPPC library fixes, a workaround for registering
  ACPI platform devices with overlapping I/O or memory resources, an
  ACPI EC driver fix related to probe deferral on platforms using
  HW-reduced ACPI, two ACPI battery driver fixes and a workaround for
  handling model numbers with unprintable characters in it, probe error
  cleanup and driver unload code path fixes, hardware error reporting
  fixes, documentation fixes, and assorted code cleanups all over.

  Specifics:

   - Eliminate struct acpi_driver whose users have all been converted to
     bind to platform devices or auxiliary devices and set the "no power
     management" flag for all struct acpi_device objects (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Avoid complaints regarding missing _OSC features on platforms where
     OSC_CAPABILITIES_MASK_ERROR is set in _OSC error bits even though
     all of the requested features are actually acknowledged (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Avoid printing confusing _OSC messages for non-PCIe host bridges
     without _OSC which is a valid configuration (Kazuma Kondo)

   - Use correct region struct for BERT region size check and properly
     map BERT and CCEL data to their ACPI tables (Thomas Renninger)

   - Add acpi_device_clear_deps(), refactor RISC-V interrupt controller
     management code to extract generic code from it into the common
     ACPI IRQ code, and enable GICv5 IWB ACPI probe ordering detection
     on ARM on top of that (Lorenzo Pieralisi)

   - Stop using acpi_device_name() in the PNP core, stop setting
     acpi_device_name/class() in the Xen variant of the ACPI PAD
     (Processor Aggregator Device) driver, and make the Loongarch laptop
     driver stop setting acpi_device_class() (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Fix issues related to the desired_perf register access in the ACPI
     CPPC library and update it to avoid unnecessary overhead (Christian
     Loehle)

   - Simplify acpi_get_pci_dev() with the help of a mutex guard,
     introduce acpi_dev_get_pci_dev() for code that has a struct ACPI
     device for which it wants to get the struct pci_dev pointer of the
     associated PCI device, and use it in the ACPI video bus driver
     (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Avoid registering platform devices with resource overlaps in the
     ACPI core device enumeration code (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Clean up the list of included header files in the NHLT table parser

   - Update ACPI fan IDs to follow modern style and clean up header file
     inclusions in the ACPI fan driver (Andy Shevchenko)

     to avoid incorrect status reporting (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Merge consecutive battery notifications in the ACPI battery driver
     to reduce the pressure on STA, _BST and _BIX/_BIF ACPI control
     methods and make that driver use kstrtoul() instead of
     sscanf("%lu\n") (Rong Zhang)

   - Sanitise model_number in the ACPI battery driver by dropping
     unprintable characters (Kate Hsuan)

   - Remove a node_set() call that is redundant from

Pull crypto library updates from Eric Biggers:
 "Add library APIs for most AES encryption modes that are used in the
  kernel (ECB, CBC, CBC-CTS, CTR, XCTR, XTS, GCM, CCM).

  These AES modes have many in-kernel users that are currently using the
  crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead APIs. These existing APIs are difficult
  to use and inefficient. Until now, the lack of proper library support
  for these has been the main gap in the crypto library.

  This set of changes is the next stage of addressing it:

   - Implement the new APIs on top of the existing support for
     single-block AES in the library.

   - Fully document the new APIs.

   - Migrate the only user of the old AES-GCM library API to the new,
     more flexible API; then remove the old API and its implementation.

   - Wire up the new APIs to the traditional crypto API by adding
     crypto_skcipher and crypto_aead algorithms.

     This makes the new APIs be covered by the traditional crypto API's
     self-tests. It also makes them be already used for real on systems
     that don't have architecture-optimized code for these modes.

     But most importantly, this is a prerequisite for migrating the
     architecture-optimized code for these AES modes (i.e.
     arch/*/crypto/aes*) into the library, which as usual will eliminate
     a lot of redundant "glue" code.

  Note that unlike some of the other algorithms that have been migrated
  to the library, e.g. SHA-512, for these AES modes there was too much
  to get done in one cycle. Nor did it make sense to handle these modes
  one at a time, because they tend to be coupled together or depend on
  each other, especially in the architecture-optimized AES code.

  Thus, most of the benefits (reductions in lines of code, performance
  improvements, etc.) will follow in later cycles when
  architecture-optimized code is migrated into the library and users of
  crypto_skcipher and crypto_aead are updated to use the new APIs.

  The design of the new APIs was informed by writing proof-of-concept
  patches for many kernel subsystems currently accessing these same
  algorithms via crypto_skcipher or crypto_aead (patches 18-33 of
  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260707053503.209874-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/).

  While those patches will be resent for real later, the total diffstat
  for them was negative 1905 lines. So clearly the new APIs are quite a
  bit easier to use and align better with what users actually need.

  Besides the new AES encryption APIs, there are also a few changes for
  improved AES-CMAC key and context zeroization"

Pull fscrypt updates from Eric Biggers:
 "The main change this cycle is a significant simplification that's been
  overdue for a while now: standardizing on a single file contents
  encryption implementation in ext4 and f2fs, instead of having two.

  Specifically, the original filesystem-layer file contents encryption
  implementation is removed, and the blk-crypto implementation is now
  used unconditionally. blk-crypto delegates either to inline crypto
  hardware or to the CPU via blk-crypto-fallback. The latter is
  functionally equivalent to the original filesystem-layer code.

  The blk-crypto implementation already existed, but previously it was
  used only when the filesystem was mounted with "-o inlinecrypt". Now,
  "-o inlinecrypt" just selects whether inline crypto hardware is used.

  To allow maintaining that user control over hardware use, the
  blk-crypto API is extended with a new flag BLK_CRYPTO_CFG_ALLOW_HW.

  Overall, this removes quite a bit of redundant code from ext4, f2fs,
  and fs/crypto/. It should make things easier for ongoing filesystem
  efforts such as iomap support, large folios, and btrfs encryption
  (btrfs had already been planning to use blk-crypto exclusively.)

  There are two small behavior changes of note:

   - Direct I/O now works on encrypted files even without "-o inlinecrypt",
     rather than falling back to buffered I/O. This is effectively a
     bugfix, though I'll continue to keep an eye out for any user that
     may have been depending on the buffered I/O fallback.

   - IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies are no longer supported in certain cases
     that didn't make sense and have no known uses.

  This has been in linux-next since July 22 with no reported issues. All
  encryption xfstests pass on ext4 and f2fs. As usual I've also been
  using it on a system with an fscrypt-encrypted home directory. Of
  course, the blk-crypto code paths also aren't new and were already
  being used on many systems via the inlinecrypt mount option.

  In addition to the main change described above, there are a few other
  cleanups such as using lock guards for mutexes, improving
  documentation, and removing a workaround for outdated gcc versions"

 "This contains several fixes in HFS/HFS+ of syzbot reported issues and
  HFS/HFS+ fixes of xfstests failures.

   - b-tree bitmap corruption check (Aditya Prakash Srivastava)

     During b-tree open (hfs_btree_open()), the code verifies that the
     allocation map bit for the tree header (node 0) is set. If not, it
     indicates a corrupted map record/bitmap and mounts the volume as
     read-only (SB_RDONLY) to prevent further damage.

   - Validate catalog CNIDs before instantiating inodes (David
     Maximiliano Hermitte)

     The hfs_cat_find_brec() first resolves a catalog thread record by
     CNID and then looks up the corresponding catalog record by
     parent/name. On a corrupted filesystem image, the second lookup may
     find a record whose CNID does not match the CNID that was
     requested. Finally, corrupted catalog records are rejected.

   - Validate B-tree record offset table (Jiaming Zhang)

     A crafted HFS+ image can contain a corrupted B-tree node. The node
     descriptor may contain a record count that does not fit in the
     node, and record offsets may be unordered, unaligned, outside the
     node, or point into the offset table itself. Validate num_recs
     against the node size before walking the record offset table.
     Reject record ranges that are unordered, unaligned, outside the
     node, or overlapping the offset table. Reject invalid record
     indexes before reading their offset entries, and avoid decrementing
     an already-zero leaf_count.

   - Refactoring of hfsplus_delete_cat() logic (Kyle Zeng).

     The hfsplus_delete_cat() is called with str == NULL when the last
     open reference to an unlinked HFS+ hardlink backing inode is
     closed. In that case, the function finds the catalog thread by CNID
     and rebuilds the catalog key from thread.nodeName. A corrupted
     image can therefore provide an oversized thread name length and
     make hfs_bnode_read() write past the catalog search-key allocation.
     Read the CNID record through hfsplus_brec_read_cat(), which bounds
     the record read to sizeof(hfsplus_cat_entry) and verifies that a
     thread record's size exactly matches nodeName.length.

   - Cleanup in KUnit test (Mohammad Shahid)

     The kfree() safely handles NULL pointers, so the explicit NULL
     check in free_mock_str_env() before calling kfree() is unnecessary.

  The rest contain fixes of generic/564 xfstests' test-case failure
  for the case of HFS+ file system, syzbot reported issue in
  hfs_mdb_commit() and hfs_mdb_close() methods of HFS file system,
  and reworking the MDB locking scheme in HFS file system"

Pull vfs writeback updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This makes sync_inode_metadata() and writeback_single_inode() persist
  not only the inode but all metadata associated with it.

  A new .sync_inode_metadata superblock operation is called from
  __writeback_single_inode(). Alongside it a new I_METADATA_WRITEBACK
  state flag is added.

  Filesystems no longer need their own mmb_fsync() implementations and
  can just use simple_fsync(). All metadata is now written for IS_SYNC
  and IS_DIRSYNC inodes. Races where several fsyncs raced and mmb_sync()
  could return before all buffers were really persisted are fixed since
  I_SYNC now serializes properly.

  The I_METADATA_WRITEBACK scheme also fixes the case where a
  WB_SYNC_NONE writeback landing between write(2) and fsync(2) left
  fsync(2) failing to persist the inode. That problem is not specific to
  filesystems using the generic metadata bh tracking, and the ones that
  do not are left alone.

  ext2, udf, bfs, minix, fat and ext4 in nojournal mode have their data
  integrity writeout fixed and are converted. affs drops metadata bh
  tracking and mmb_fsync() is removed.

  A few other fixes came out of this:

   - a UAF in mark_buffer_write_io_error()

   - missed inode writeback when racing with __writeback_single_inode()

   - ext4 allocating the mapping_metadata_bhs struct on demand

   - three fat fixes: a lost inode update in do_msdos_rename() with
     DIRSYNC, inode buffer write errors not propagating out of
     fat_sync_inode_metadata() and directory entries not being
     persisted on fsync(2) of the root directory"

Pull vfs superblock updates from Christian Brauner:

 - Make it possible to share a block device between multiple
   filesystems.

   erofs can mount read-only blob devices shared between many
   superblocks, but because we only tracked a single superblock a
   freeze, thaw, removal or sync on such a device was never propagated
   to all the superblocks using it, and there was no way to find them.

   Add an efficient table to lookup all superblocks using a given block
   device.

 - A bunch of pre-existing fixes fell out of this work:

   A block-device freeze racing a btrfs device change could leave the
   whole filesystem stuck frozen. A bdev_freeze() issued by "dmsetup
   suspend" or an LVM snapshot resolves that holder to freeze the
   filesystem. and bdev_thaw() resolves it again to thaw. A freeze
   landing while btrfs is adding, removing or replacing a device freezes
   the filesystem. The membership change then drops that link. So the
   matching thaw could no longer find the superblock.

   Forbid freezing a device for the duration of a membership change,
   modelled on deny_write_access()/allow_write_access().

Pull overlayfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This lets the merged overlayfs mount itself be idmapped through
  mount_setattr(MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP), in addition to the already supported
  idmapped lower and upper layers. The same overlay tree can then be
  exposed under a different ownership view.

  Overlayfs already normalizes every underlying id through the relevant
  layer idmap when ovl_copyattr() copies attributes into the overlay
  inode. So the overlay inode's i_uid and i_gid are overlay-final ids.

  The overlay mount idmap composes on top of that and is applied at the
  overlay-inode boundary only while the underlying layers keep being
  accessed with the mounter's credentials through their own (possibly
  idmapped) mounts.

  So this only changes how the caller sees the overlay inode and never
  widens the mounter's access to the layers. The second,
  mounter-credential check in ovl_permission() against the real inode
  stays on the layer idmap.

  Most paths need no change because the VFS applies the mount idmap to
  the overlay inode before overlayfs runs or after it returns at the
  syscall boundary. Overlayfs only has to change where it bypasses the
  generic path.

  This also included is a fix for a double end_creating() on the
  overlayfs casefold-mismatch path"

  It was an effort to make fscache usable as a kernel cache for lazy

  filesystem and EROFS over fscache has been removed.
