Many architectures do not include asm-generic/cacheflush.h, so turn
the includes on their head and add linux/cacheflush.h which includes
asm/cacheflush.h.

Move the flush_dcache_folio() declaration from asm-generic/cacheflush.h
to linux/cacheflush.h and change linux/highmem.h to include
linux/cacheflush.h instead of asm/cacheflush.h so that all necessary
places will see flush_dcache_folio().

More functions should have their default implementations moved in the
future, but those are for follow-on patches.  This fixes csky, sparc and
sparc64 which were missed in the commit which added flush_dcache_folio().

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - kprobes: Restructured stack unwinder to show properly on x86 when a
   stack dump happens from a kretprobe callback.

 - Fix to bootconfig parsing

 - Have tracefs allow owner and group permissions by default (only
   denying others). There's been pressure to allow non root to tracefs
   in a controlled fashion, and using groups is probably the safest.

 - Bootconfig memory managament updates.

 - Bootconfig clean up to have the tools directory be less dependent on
   changes in the kernel tree.

 - Allow perf to be traced by function tracer.

 - Rewrite of function graph tracer to be a callback from the function
   tracer instead of having its own trampoline (this change will happen
   on an arch by arch basis, and currently only x86_64 implements it).

 - Allow multiple direct trampolines (bpf hooks to functions) be batched
   together in one synchronization.

 - Allow histogram triggers to add variables that can perform
   calculations against the event's fields.

 - Use the linker to determine architecture callbacks from the ftrace
   trampoline to allow for proper parameter prototypes and prevent
   warnings from the compiler.

 - Extend histogram triggers to key off of variables.

 - Have trace recursion use bit magic to determine preempt context over
   if branches.

 - Have trace recursion disable preemption as all use cases do anyway.

 - Added testing for verification of tracing utilities.

 - Various small clean ups and fixes.

Pull scheduler updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Revert the printk format based wchan() symbol resolution as it can
   leak the raw value in case that the symbol is not resolvable.

 - Make wchan() more robust and work with all kind of unwinders by
   enforcing that the task stays blocked while unwinding is in progress.

 - Prevent sched_fork() from accessing an invalid sched_task_group

 - Improve asymmetric packing logic

 - Extend scheduler statistics to RT and DL scheduling classes and add
   statistics for bandwith burst to the SCHED_FAIR class.

 - Properly account SCHED_IDLE entities

 - Prevent a potential deadlock when initial priority is assigned to a
   newly created kthread. A recent change to plug a race between cpuset
   and __sched_setscheduler() introduced a new lock dependency which is
   now triggered. Break the lock dependency chain by moving the priority
   assignment to the thread function.

 - Fix the idle time reporting in /proc/uptime for NOHZ enabled systems.

 - Improve idle balancing in general and especially for NOHZ enabled
   systems.

 - Provide proper interfaces for live patching so it does not have to
   fiddle with scheduler internals.

 - Add cluster aware scheduling support.

 - A small set of tweaks for RT (irqwork, wait_task_inactive(), various
   scheduler options and delaying mmdrop)

 - The usual small tweaks and improvements all over the place

Pull memory folios from Matthew Wilcox:
 "Add memory folios, a new type to represent either order-0 pages or the
  head page of a compound page. This should be enough infrastructure to
  support filesystems converting from pages to folios.

  The point of all this churn is to allow filesystems and the page cache
  to manage memory in larger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. The original plan
  was to use compound pages like THP does, but I ran into problems with
  some functions expecting only a head page while others expect the
  precise page containing a particular byte.

  The folio type allows a function to declare that it's expecting only a
  head page. Almost incidentally, this allows us to remove various calls
  to VM_BUG_ON(PageTail(page)) and compound_head().

  This converts just parts of the core MM and the page cache. For 5.17,
  we intend to convert various filesystems (XFS and AFS are ready; other
  filesystems may make it) and also convert more of the MM and page
  cache to folios. For 5.18, multi-page folios should be ready.

  The multi-page folios offer some improvement to some workloads. The
  80% win is real, but appears to be an artificial benchmark (postgres
  startup, which isn't a serious workload). Real workloads (eg building
  the kernel, running postgres in a steady state, etc) seem to benefit
  between 0-10%. I haven't heard of any performance losses as a result
  of this series. Nobody has done any serious performance tuning; I
  imagine that tweaking the readahead algorithm could provide some more
  interesting wins. There are also other places where we could choose to
  create large folios and currently do not, such as writes that are
  larger than PAGE_SIZE.

  I'd like to thank all my reviewers who've offered review/ack tags:
  Christoph Hellwig, David Howells, Jan Kara, Jeff Layton, Johannes
  Weiner, Kirill A. Shutemov, Michal Hocko, Mike Rapoport, Vlastimil
  Babka, William Kucharski, Yu Zhao and Zi Yan.

  I'd also like to thank those who gave feedback I incorporated but
  haven't offered up review tags for this part of the series: Nick
  Piggin, Mel Gorman, Ming Lei, Darrick Wong, Ted Ts'o, John Hubbard,
  Hugh Dickins, and probably a few others who I forget"

implement their own version of it.

stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

Having a stable wchan means the process must be blocked and for it to
stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

<title>kprobes: treewide: Make it harder to refer kretprobe_trampoline directly</title>

<id>adf8a61a940c49fea6fab9c3865f2b69b8ceef28</id>
<content type='text'>
Since now there is kretprobe_trampoline_addr() for referring the
address of kretprobe trampoline code, we don't need to access
kretprobe_trampoline directly.

Make it harder to refer by renaming it to __kretprobe_trampoline().

Pull ARC updates from Vineet Gupta:
 "Finally a big pile of changes for ARC (atomics/mm). These are from our
  internal arc64 tree, preparing mainline for eventual arc64 support.
  I'm spreading them out to avoid tsunami of patches in one release.

   - MM rework:
       - Implement up to 4 paging levels
       - Enable STRICT_MM_TYPECHECK
       - switch pgtable_t back to 'struct page *'

   - Atomics rework / implement relaxed accessors

   - Retire legacy MMUv1,v2; ARC750 cores

   - A few other build errors, typos"

* tag 'arc-5.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc: (33 commits)
  ARC: mm: vmalloc sync from kernel to user table to update PMD ...
