Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner: - Fix a regression in overlayfs caused by reworking the lookup_one*() set of helpers - Make sure that the name of the dentry is printed in overlayfs' mkdir() helper - Add missing iocb values to TRACE_IOCB_STRINGS define - Unlock the superblock during iterate_supers_type(). This was an accidental internal api change - Drop a misleading assert in file_seek_cur_needs_f_lock() helper - Never refuse to return PIDFD_GET_INGO when parent pid is zero That can trivially happen in container scenarios where the parent process might be located in an ancestor pid namespace - Don't revalidate in try_lookup_noperm() as that causes regression for filesystems such as cifs - Fix simple_xattr_list() and reset the err variable after security_inode_listsecurity() got called so as not to confuse userspace about the length of the xattr * tag 'vfs-6.16-rc3.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: fs: drop assert in file_seek_cur_needs_f_lock fs: unlock the superblock during iterate_supers_type ovl: fix debug print in case of mkdir error VFS: change try_lookup_noperm() to skip revalidation fs: add missing values to TRACE_IOCB_STRINGS fs/xattr.c: fix simple_xattr_list() ovl: fix regression caused by lookup helpers API changes pidfs: never refuse ppid == 0 in PIDFD_GET_INFO
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
