 "Followup set of fixes and updates for block for the 6.19 merge window.

  NVMe had some late minute debates which lead to dropping some patches

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko)
   fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c

 - "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight)
   enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up
   the test module for these library functions

 - "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich)
   makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB
   debugger

 - "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang)
   adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when
   the hung-task and lockup detectors fire

 - "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu)
   adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several
   users away from their private implementations

 - "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet)
   makes TCP a little faster

 - "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin)
   reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update
   Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients

 - "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin)
   increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO

 - "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
   is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
   cover letter:

      This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
      subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
      kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
      environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
      downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
      preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
      devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.

      As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
      memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
      as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
      RAM across the kexec reboot.

   Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
   testing work.

 - "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain)
   moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to
   /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
   hopefully be removed one day

 - "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport)
   fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc()
   regions

With authentication, in addition to EKEYREJECTED there is also no point in
retrying reconnects when status is ENOKEY.  Thus, add -ENOKEY as another
criteria to determine when to stop retries.

Replace kcalloc with kvcalloc for allocation of the commands
array. Each command structure is 712 bytes. The array typically
exceeds a single page, and grows much larger with high queue depths
(e.g., commands &gt;182KB).

kvcalloc automatically falls back to vmalloc for large or fragmented
allocations, improving reliability. In our case, this memory is not
aimed for DMA operations and could be safely allocated by kvcalloc.
Using virtually contiguous memory helps to avoid allocation failures
and out-of-memory conditions common with kcalloc on large pools.

single page, and grow much larger with high queue depths
(e.g., commands &gt;2MB, responses &gt;170KB)

kvcalloc automatically falls back to vmalloc for large or fragmented
allocations, improving reliability. In our case, this memory is not
aimed for DMA operations and could be safely allocated by kvcalloc.
Using virtually contiguous memory helps to avoid allocation failures
and out-of-memory conditions common with kcalloc on large pools.

Replace kcalloc with kvcalloc for allocation of the commands and
responses arrays. Each command structure is 272 bytes and each
response structure is 672 bytes. These arrays typically exceed a
single page, and grow much larger with high queue depths
(e.g., commands &gt;2MB, responses &gt;170KB)

<title>nvmet-fc: use pr_* print macros instead of dev_*</title>

Many of the nvmet-fc log messages cannot print the device used, because
it's not there yet:

  (NULL device *): {0:0} Association deleted

Use the pr_* macros consistently throughout the module and match the
output of the nvme-fc module.

Using port:association ids are more useful when debugging what's going
on, because these match now with the log entries from nvme-fc.
