Pull virtio fixes from Michael Tsirkin:
 "The biggest thing here is the adminq change - but it looks like the
  only way to avoid headq blocking causing indefinite stalls.

  This fixes three issues:

   - Prevent admin commands on one VF blocking another.

     This prevents a bad VF from blocking a good one, as well as fixing
     a scalability issue with large # of VFs

   - Correctly return error on command failure on octeon. We used to
     treat failed commands as a success.

   - Fix modpost warning when building virtio_dma_buf. Harmless, but the
     fix is trivial"

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.

  Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
  which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
  in here are:

   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases
     to get here, finally!)

   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.

     It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type
     of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust
     drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which
     others can start their work.

     There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of
     rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step.

   - driver core const api changes.

     This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for
     some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook
     out.

     This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe,
     as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to
     put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet,
     but are getting closer.

   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection

   - arch_topology minor changes

   - other minor driver core cleanups

  All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
  reported problems"

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
   Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
   These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.

 - Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
   reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
   mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My
   bad.

 - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
   folio_alloc_mpol()"

 - Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
   "Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
   of cgroup writeback"

 - Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
   faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
   index".

 - In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
   vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
   Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
   the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
   here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.

 - Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
   of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
   "Restructure va_high_addr_switch".

 - The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
   optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
   simplify code".

 - Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
   fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
   the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".

 - Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
   MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.

 - In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
   has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.

 - Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
   zswap: trivial folio conversions".

 - In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
   Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
   swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
   objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.

 - In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
   calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
   fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.

 - In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
   taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
   is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
   improvements in pagefault latency are realized.

 - David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
   page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
   fs/proc/internal.h".

 - David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
   "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".

 - Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
   "cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".

 - Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
   Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
   and utilize them".

 - Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
   reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
   common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.

   It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
   all CPUs are pegged.

 - hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
   "mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".

 - Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
   thing.

 - Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
   Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
   This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
   efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.

 - DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
   Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
   function".

 - In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
   David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
   modernizing its use of pageframe fields.

 - Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
   page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".

 - More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
   "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
   !ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
   pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.

 - Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
   __folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
   preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.

 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
   implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
   folio userspace copying.

 - The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
   and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
   with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.

 - A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
   that.

 - David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
   migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
   folio isolation + checks under PTL".

 - Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
   the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
   readahead quirks".

 - SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
   {min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
   self testing code.

 - Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
   code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
   by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.

 - Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
   and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.

 - Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
   code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
   Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
   under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
   data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"

 - Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
   adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.

 - The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
   permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
   excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
   monitor and handle this situation.

 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
   migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
   from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.

 - SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
   does those things.

 - In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
   Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
   utilization.

 - Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
   pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
   bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
   they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.

 - Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
   /proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
   is "query VMAs from /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps".

 - In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
   Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
   related to multisize THP splitting.

 - Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
   without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
   userspace to use all available huge page sizes.

 - In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
   injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and
   not very useful feature from slab fault injection.

 - The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
   and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
   with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.

 - A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
   that.

 - David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
   migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
   folio isolation + checks under PTL".

 - Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
   the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
   readahead quirks".

 - SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
   {min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
   self testing code.

 - Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
   code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
   by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.

 - Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
   and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.

 - Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
   code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
   Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
   under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
   data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"

 - Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
   adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.

 - The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
   permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
   excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
   monitor and handle this situation.

 - Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
   migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
   from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.

 - SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
   does those things.

 - In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
   Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
   utilization.

 - Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
   pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
   bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
   they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.

 - Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
   /proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
   is "query VMAs from /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps".

 - In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
   Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
   related to multisize THP splitting.

 - Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
   without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
   userspace to use all available huge page sizes.

 - In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
   injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and
   not very useful feature from slab fault injection.

<title>virtio_pci_modern: use completion instead of busy loop to wait on admin cmd result</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, the code waits in a busy loop on every admin virtqueue issued
command to get a reply. That prevents callers from issuing multiple
commands in parallel.

To overcome this limitation, introduce a virtqueue event callback for
admin virtqueue. For every issued command, use completion mechanism
to wait on a reply. In the event callback, trigger the completion
is done for every incoming reply.

Alongside with that, introduce a spin lock to protect the admin
virtqueue operations.

Admin virtqueue is just another virtqueue nothing that special about it.
The current implementation treats it somehow separate though in terms
of creation and deletion. Unify the admin virtqueue creation and
deletion flows to be aligned with the rest of virtqueues, creating
it from vp_find_vqs_*() helpers. Let the admin virtqueue to be deleted
by vp_del_vqs() as the rest.

Call vp_find_one_vq_msix() with slow_path argument being "true" to make
sure that in case of limited interrupt vectors the config vector is used
for admin queue.
