Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"Improvements to ext4's block allocator performance for very large file
systems, especially when the file system or files which are highly
fragmented. There is a new mount option, prefetch_block_bitmaps which
will pull in the block bitmaps and set up the in-memory buddy bitmaps
when the file system is initially mounted.
Beyond that, a lot of bug fixes and cleanups. In particular, a number
of changes to make ext4 more robust in the face of write errors or
file system corruptions"

We add a separate CLINT timer driver for Linux RISC-V M-mode (i.e.
RISC-V NoMMU kernel).
The CLINT MMIO device provides three things:
1. 64bit free running counter register
2. 64bit per-CPU time compare registers
3. 32bit per-CPU inter-processor interrupt registers
Unlike other timer devices, CLINT provides IPI registers along with
timer registers. To use CLINT IPI registers, the CLINT timer driver
provides IPI related callbacks to arch/riscv.

In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.
After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:
Running time on unfixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m2.051s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m2.026s
Running time on fixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m0.471s
user 0m0.004s
sys 0m0.395s

IA-64 is special and treats pgd_offset_k() differently to pgd_offset(),
using different formulae to calculate the indices into the kernel and user
PGDs. The index into the user PGDs takes into account the region number,
but the index into the kernel (init_mm) PGD always assumes a predefined
kernel region number. Commit 974b9b2c68f3 ("mm: consolidate pte_index() and
pte_offset_*() definitions") made IA-64 use a generic pgd_offset_k() which
incorrectly used pgd_index() for kernel page tables. As a result, the
index into the kernel PGD was going out of bounds and the kernel hung
during early boot.
Allow overrides of pgd_offset_k() and override it on IA-64 with the old
implementation that will correctly index the kernel PGD.

Impose a limit on the number of watches that a user can hold so that
they can't use this mechanism to fill up all the available memory.
This is done by putting a counter in user_struct that's incremented when
a watch is allocated and decreased when it is released. If the number
exceeds the RLIMIT_NOFILE limit, the watch is rejected with EAGAIN.
This can be tested by the following means:
(1) Create a watch queue and attach it to fd 5 in the program given - in
this case, bash:
keyctl watch_session /tmp/nlog /tmp/gclog 5 bash
(2) In the shell, set the maximum number of files to, say, 99:
ulimit -n 99
(3) Add 200 keyrings:
for ((i=0; i<200; i++)); do keyctl newring a$i @s || break; done
(4) Try to watch all of the keyrings:
for ((i=0; i<200; i++)); do echo $i; keyctl watch_add 5 %:a$i || break; done
This should fail when the number of watches belonging to the user hits
99.
(5) Remove all the keyrings and all of those watches should go away:
for ((i=0; i<200; i++)); do keyctl unlink %:a$i; done
(6) Kill off the watch queue by exiting the shell spawned by
watch_session.

Seems like syzbot got some more io_uring bits wired up, and we got a
handful of reports and the associated fixes are in here.
General fixes too, and a lot of them marked for stable.
Lastly, a bit of fallout from the async buffered reads, where we now
more easily trigger short reads. Some applications don't really like
that, so the io_read() code now handles short reads internally, and
got a cleanup along the way so that it's now easier to read (and
documented). We're now passing tests that failed before"

Patch series "iomap: Constify ioreadX() iomem argument", v3.
The ioread8/16/32() and others have inconsistent interface among the
architectures: some taking address as const, some not.
It seems there is nothing really stopping all of them to take pointer to
const.
This patch (of 4):
The ioreadX() and ioreadX_rep() helpers have inconsistent interface. On
some architectures void *__iomem address argument is a pointer to const,
on some not.
Implementations of ioreadX() do not modify the memory under the address so
they can be converted to a "const" version for const-safety and
consistency among architectures.

A page never changes its zone number. The zone number happens to be
stored in the same word as other bits which are modified, but the zone
number bits will never be modified by any other write, so it can accept
a reload of the zone bits after an intervening write and it don't need
to use READ_ONCE(). Thus, annotate this data race using
ASSERT_EXCLUSIVE_BITS() to also assert that there are no concurrent
writes to it.

The write is under lru_lock, but the read is done as lockless. The scan
count is used to determine how aggressively the anon and file LRU lists
should be scanned. Load tearing could generate an inefficient heuristic,
so fix it by adding READ_ONCE() for the read.

Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.
We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.
So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

Give up on the notion that we can remove page-flags.h from mm.h. There
are currently 14 inline functions which use a PageFoo function. Also, two
of the files directly included by mm.h include page-flags.h themselves,
and there are probably more indirect inclusions. So just include it at
the top like any other header file.

Patch series "THP prep patches".
These are some generic cleanups and improvements, which I would like
merged into mmotm soon. The first one should be a performance improvement
for all users of compound pages, and the others are aimed at getting code
to compile away when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is disabled (ie small
systems). Also better documented / less confusing than the current prefix
mixture of compound, hpage and thp.
This patch (of 7):
This removes a few instructions from functions which need to know how many
pages are in a compound page. The storage used is either page->mapping on
64-bit or page->index on 32-bit. Both of these are fine to overlay on
tail pages.

This remoes the code from the COW path to call debug_dma_assert_idle(),
which was added many years ago.
Google shows that it hasn't caught anything in the 6+ years we've had it
apart from a false positive, and Hugh just noticed how it had a very
unfortunate spinlock serialization in the COW path.
He fixed that issue the previous commit (a85ffd59bd36: "dma-debug: fix
debug_dma_assert_idle(), use rcu_read_lock()"), but let's see if anybody
even notices when we remove this function entirely.
NOTE! We keep the dma tracking infrastructure that was added by the
commit that introduced it. Partly to make it easier to resurrect this
debug code if we ever deside to, and partly because that tracking by pfn
and offset looks quite reasonable.
The problem with this debug code was simply that it was expensive and
didn't seem worth it, not that it was wrong per se.

Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of timekeeping/VDSO updates:
- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the
counter read function when time namespace support is enabled.
Adding the pointer is a NOOP for all other architectures because
the compiler is supposed to optimize that out when it is unused in
the architecture specific inline. The change also solved a similar
problem for MIPS which fortunately has time namespaces not yet
enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another
sequence counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is
to utilize the already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The
core code now exposes helper functions which allow to serialize
against the timekeeper code and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It
now has an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which
defaults to an empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support
to work from a common upstream base.
- A trivial comment fix"

Pull more timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of posix CPU timer changes which allows to defer the heavy work
of posix CPU timers into task work context. The tick interrupt is
reduced to a quick check which queues the work which is doing the
heavy lifting before returning to user space or going back to guest
mode. Moving this out is deferring the signal delivery slightly but
posix CPU timers are inaccurate by nature as they depend on the tick
so there is no real damage. The relevant test cases all passed.
This lifts the last offender for RT out of the hard interrupt context
tick handler, but it also has the general benefit that the actual
heavy work is accounted to the task/process and not to the tick
interrupt itself.
Further optimizations are possible to break long sighand lock hold and
interrupt disabled (on !RT kernels) times when a massive amount of
posix CPU timers (which are unpriviledged) is armed for a
task/process.
This is currently only enabled for x86 because the architecture has to
ensure that task work is handled in KVM before entering a guest, which
was just established for x86 with the new common entry/exit code which
got merged post 5.8 and is not the case for other KVM architectures"

there are 2 non OpenRISC specific fixups.
Non OpenRISC fixes:
- In init we need to align the init_task correctly to fix an issue
with MUTEX_FLAGS, reviewed by Peter Z. No one picked this up so I
kept it on my tree.
- In asm-generic/io.h I fixed up some sparse warnings, OK'd by Arnd.
Arnd asked to merge it via my tree.
OpenRISC fixes:
- Many fixes for OpenRISC sprase warnings.
- Add support OpenRISC SMP tlb flushing rather than always flushing
the entire TLB on every CPU.
- Fix bug when dumping stack via /proc/xxx/stack of user threads"
