vfs_cleanup_quota_inode()
When dquot_resume() was last updated, the argument that got passed
to vfs_cleanup_quota_inode was incorrectly set.
If type = -1 and dquot_load_quota_sb() returns a negative value,
then vfs_cleanup_quota_inode() gets called with -1 passed as an
argument, and this leads to an array-index-out-of-bounds bug.
Fix this issue by correctly passing the arguments.

There are 3 places in namei.c where the equivalent of ext2_put_page() is
open coded on a page which was returned from the ext2_get_page() call
[through the use of ext2_find_entry() and ext2_dotdot()].
Move ext2_put_page() to ext2.h and use it in namei.c
Also add a comment regarding the proper way to release the page returned
from ext2_find_entry() and ext2_dotdot().

The on-disk quota format supports quota files with upto 2^32 blocks. Be
careful when computing quota file offsets in the quota files from block
numbers as they can overflow 32-bit types. Since quota files larger than
4GB would require ~26 millions of quota users, this is mostly a
theoretical concern now but better be careful, fuzzers would find the
problem sooner or later anyway...

Commit 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
removed various __user annotations from function signatures as part of
its refactoring.
It also removed the __user annotation for proc_dohung_task_timeout_secs()
at its declaration in sched/sysctl.h, but not at its definition in
kernel/hung_task.c.
Hence, sparse complains:
kernel/hung_task.c:271:5: error: symbol 'proc_dohung_task_timeout_secs' redeclared with different type (incompatible argument 3 (different address spaces))
Adjust the annotation at the definition fitting to that refactoring to make
sparse happy again, which also resolves this warning from sparse:
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces)
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: expected void *
kernel/hung_task.c:277:52: got void [noderef] __user *buffer

The purpose of io_remap_pfn_range() is to map IO memory, such as a
memory mapped IO exposed through a PCI BAR. IO devices do not
understand encryption, so this memory must always be decrypted.
Automatically call pgprot_decrypted() as part of the generic
implementation.
This fixes a bug where enabling AMD SME causes subsystems, such as RDMA,
using io_remap_pfn_range() to expose BAR pages to user space to fail.
The CPU will encrypt access to those BAR pages instead of passing
unencrypted IO directly to the device.
Places not mapping IO should use remap_pfn_range().

}
fails and triggers WARN_ON_ONCE(!signr) in do_jobctl_trap().
This is because task_join_group_stop() has 2 problems when current is traced:
1. We can't rely on the "JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING" check, a stopped tracee
can be woken up by debugger and it can clone another thread which
should join the group-stop.
We need to check group_stop_count || SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED.
2. If SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED is already set, we should not increment
sig->group_stop_count and add JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME. The new thread
should stop without another do_notify_parent_cldstop() report.
To clarify, the problem is very old and we should blame
ptrace_init_task(). But now that we have task_join_group_stop() it makes
more sense to fix this helper to avoid the code duplication.

When flags in queue_pages_pte_range don't have MPOL_MF_MOVE or
MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL bits, code breaks and passing origin pte - 1 to
pte_unmap_unlock seems like not a good idea.
queue_pages_pte_range can run in MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL mode which doesn't
migrate misplaced pages but returns with EIO when encountering such a
page. Since commit a7f40cfe3b7a ("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return
-EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified") and early break on the first pte
in the range results in pte_unmap_unlock on an underflow pte. This can
lead to lockups later on when somebody tries to lock the pte resp.
page_table_lock again..

Now that we have KASAN-KUNIT tests integration, it's easy to see that
some KASAN tests are not adopted to the SW_TAGS mode and are failing.
Adjust the allocation size for kasan_memchr() and kasan_memcmp() by
roung it up to OOB_TAG_OFF so the bad access ends up in a separate
memory granule.
Add a new kmalloc_uaf_16() tests that relies on UAF, and a new
kasan_bitops_tags() test that is tailored to tag-based mode, as it's
hard to adopt the existing kmalloc_oob_16() and kasan_bitops_generic()

Richard reported a warning which can be reproduced by running the LTP

The problem occurs because in the non-hierarchical mode non-root page
counters are not linked to root page counters, so the charge is not
propagated to the root memory cgroup.
After the removal of the original memory cgroup and reparenting of the
object cgroup, the root cgroup might be uncharged by draining a objcg
stock, for example. It leads to an eventual underflow of the charge and
triggers a warning.
Fix it by linking all page counters to corresponding root page counters
in the non-hierarchical mode.
Please note, that in the non-hierarchical mode all objcgs are always
reparented to the root memory cgroup, even if the hierarchy has more
than 1 level. This patch doesn't change it.
The patch also doesn't affect how the hierarchical mode is working,
which is the only sane and truly supported mode now.
Thanks to Richard for reporting, debugging and providing an alternative
version of the fix!

commit 6f42193fd86e ("memremap: don't use a separate devm action for
devmap_managed_enable_get") changed the static key updates such that we
now call devmap_managed_enable_put() without doing the equivalent
devmap_managed_enable_get().
devmap_managed_enable_get() is only called for MEMORY_DEVICE_PRIVATE and
MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX, But memunmap_pages() get called for other pgmap
types too. This results in the below warning when switching between
system-ram and devdax mode for devdax namespace.

There is no need to specify a "ULL" suffix for "all bits set": "~0" is
sufficient, and works regardless of type. In fact adding the suffix
makes the code more fragile.

"Here's some small fixes for 5.10-rc2 and a big driver removal.
The fixes are for some reported issues in the interconnect and
coresight drivers, nothing major.
The "big" driver removal is the MIC drivers have been asked to be
removed as the hardware never shipped and Intel no longer wants to
maintain something that no one can use. This is welcomed by many as
the DMA usage of these drivers was "interesting" and the security
people were starting to question some issues that were starting to be
found in the codebase.
Note, one of the subsystems for this driver, the "VOP" code, will
probably come back in future kernel versions as it was looking to
potentially solve some PCIe virtualization issues that a number of
other vendors were wanting to solve. But as-is, this codebase didn't
work for anyone else so no actual functionality is being removed.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

The Documentation/ABI/ updates are just formatting issues, small ones

It was noticed that evmcs_sanitize_exec_ctrls() is not being executed
nowadays despite the code checking 'enable_evmcs' static key looking
correct. Turns out, static key magic doesn't work in '__init' section
(and it is unclear when things changed) but setup_vmcs_config() is called
only once per CPU so we don't really need it to. Switch to checking
'enlightened_vmcs' instead, it is supposed to be in sync with
'enable_evmcs'.
Opportunistically make evmcs_sanitize_exec_ctrls '__init' and drop unneeded
extra newline from it.

Add a regression test for commit 671ddc700fd0 ("KVM: nVMX: Don't leak
L1 MMIO regions to L2").
First, check to see that an L2 guest can be launched with a valid
APIC-access address that is backed by a page of L1 physical memory.
Next, set the APIC-access address to a (valid) L1 physical address
that is not backed by memory. KVM can't handle this situation, so
resuming L2 should result in a KVM exit for internal error
(emulation).
