Pull kmalloc_obj conversion from Kees Cook:
 "This does the tree-wide conversion to kmalloc_obj() and friends using
  coccinelle, with a subsequent small manual cleanup of whitespace
  alignment that coccinelle does not handle.

  This uncovered a clang bug in __builtin_counted_by_ref(), so the
  conversion is preceded by disabling that for current versions of
  clang.  The imminent clang 22.1 release has the fix.

  I've done allmodconfig build tests for x86_64, arm64, i386, and arm. I
  did defconfig builds for alpha, m68k, mips, parisc, powerpc, riscv,
  s390, sparc, sh, arc, csky, xtensa, hexagon, and openrisc"

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>NTB: ntb_transport: Use seq_file for QP stats debugfs</title>

<id>8c1f92ca8bca3ce2d2c085571af89503bc7bc7c4</id>
<content type='text'>
The ./qp*/stats debugfs file for each NTB transport QP is currently
implemented with a hand-crafted kmalloc() buffer and a series of
scnprintf() calls. This is a pre-seq_file style pattern and makes future
extensions easy to truncate.

Convert the stats file to use the seq_file helpers via
DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE(), which simplifies the code and lets the seq_file
core handle buffering and partial reads.

The buffer used for "qp%d" was only 4 bytes, which truncates names like
"qp10" to "qp1" and causes multiple queues to share the same directory.

Enlarge the buffer and use sizeof() to avoid truncation.

<title>ntb/ntb_tool: correct sscanf format for u64 and size_t in tool_peer_mw_trans_write</title>

<id>21fbdc4d0b1e7f9cabacc3587d07c62e01c7b5e8</id>
<content type='text'>
The sscanf() call in tool_peer_mw_trans_write() uses "%lli:%zi" to parse
user input into 'u64 addr' and 'size_t wsize'. This is incorrect:

 - "%lli" expects a signed long long *, but 'addr' is u64 (unsigned).
   Input like "0x8000000000000000" is misinterpreted as negative,
   leading to corrupted address values.

 - "%zi" expects a signed ssize_t *, but 'wsize' is size_t (unsigned).
   Input of "-1" is successfully parsed and stored as SIZE_MAX
   (e.g., 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF), which may cause buffer overflows
   or infinite loops in subsequent memory operations.

Fix by using format specifiers that match the actual variable types:
 - "%llu" for u64 (supports hex/decimal, standard for kernel u64 parsing)
 - "%zu" for size_t (standard and safe; rejects negative input)
