Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "A bumper crop of arm64 fixes for -rc3.

  The largest change is fixing our parsing of the 'rodata=full' command
  line option, which kstrtobool() started treating as 'rodata=false'.
  The fix actually makes the parsing of that option much less fragile
  and updates the documentation at the same time.

  We still have a boot issue pending when KASLR is disabled at compile
  time, but there's a fresh fix on the list which I'll send next week if
  it holds up to testing.

  Summary:

   - Fix workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum #1286807

   - Add workaround for AMU erratum #2457168 on Cortex-A510

   - Drop reference to removed CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM #define

   - Fix parsing of the "rodata=full" cmdline option

   - Fix a bunch of issues in the SME register state switching and sigframe code

   - Fix incorrect extraction of the CTR_EL0.CWG register field

   - Fix ACPI cache topology probing when the PPTT is not present

   - Trivial comment and whitespace fixes"

On arm64, "rodata=full" has been suppored (but not documented) since
commit:

  c55191e96caa9d78 ("arm64: mm: apply r/o permissions of VM areas to its linear alias as well")

As it's necessary to determine the rodata configuration early during
boot, arm64 has an early_param() handler for this, whereas init/main.c
has a __setup() handler which is run later.

Unfortunately, this split meant that since commit:

  f9a40b0890658330 ("init/main.c: return 1 from handled __setup() functions")

... passing "rodata=full" would result in a spurious warning from the
__setup() handler (though RO permissions would be configured
appropriately).

Further, "rodata=full" has been broken since commit:

  0d6ea3ac94ca77c5 ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")

... which caused strtobool() to parse "full" as false (in addition to
many other values not documented for the "rodata=" kernel parameter.

This patch fixes this breakage by:

* Moving the core parameter parser to an __early_param(), such that it
  is available early.

* Adding an (optional) arch hook which arm64 can use to parse "full".

* Updating the documentation to mention that "full" is valid for arm64.

* Having the core parameter parser handle "on" and "off" explicitly,
  such that any undocumented values (e.g. typos such as "ful") are
  reported as errors rather than being silently accepted.

Note that __setup() and early_param() have opposite conventions for
their return values, where __setup() uses 1 to indicate a parameter was
handled and early_param() uses 0 to indicate a parameter was handled.

Fixes: f9a40b089065 ("init/main.c: return 1 from handled __setup() functions")
Fixes: 0d6ea3ac94ca ("lib/kstrtox.c: add "false"/"true" support to kstrtobool()")

GCC has supported asm goto since 4.5, and Clang has since version 9.0.0.
The minimum supported versions of these tools for the build according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst are 5.1 and 11.0.0 respectively.

Remove the feature detection script, Kconfig option, and clean up some
fallback code that is no longer supported.

The removed script was also testing for a GCC specific bug that was
fixed in the 4.7 release.

Also remove workarounds for bpftrace using clang older than 9.0.0, since
other BPF backend fixes are required at this point.

Pull module updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "For the 6.0 merge window the modules code shifts to cleanup and minor
  fixes effort. This becomes much easier to do and review now due to the
  code split to its own directory from effort on the last kernel
  release. I expect to see more of this with time and as we expand on
  test coverage in the future. The cleanups and fixes come from usual
  suspects such as Christophe Leroy and Aaron Tomlin but there are also
  some other contributors.

  One particular minor fix worth mentioning is from Helge Deller, where
  he spotted a *forever* incorrect natural alignment on both ELF section
  header tables:

    * .altinstructions
    * __bug_table sections

  A lot of back and forth went on in trying to determine the ill effects
  of this misalignment being present for years and it has been
  determined there should be no real ill effects unless you have a buggy
  exception handler. Helge actually hit one of these buggy exception
  handlers on parisc which is how he ended up spotting this issue. When
  implemented correctly these paths with incorrect misalignment would
  just mean a performance penalty, but given that we are dealing with
  alternatives on modules and with the __bug_table (where info regardign
  BUG()/WARN() file/line information associated with it is stored) this
  really shouldn't be a big deal.

  The only other change with mentioning is the kmap() with
  kmap_local_page() and my only concern with that was on what is done
  after preemption, but the virtual addresses are restored after
  preemption. This is only used on module decompression.

  This all has sit on linux-next for a while except the kmap stuff which
  has been there for 3 weeks"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "Several core optimizations:

   - threadgroup_rwsem write locking is skipped when configuring
     controllers in empty subtrees.

     Combined with CLONE_INTO_CGROUP, this allows the common static
     usage pattern to not grab threadgroup_rwsem at all (glibc still
     doesn't seem ready for CLONE_INTO_CGROUP unfortunately).

   - threadgroup_rwsem used to be put into non-percpu mode by default
     due to latency concerns in specific use cases. There's no reason
     for everyone else to pay for it. Make the behavior optional.

   - psi no longer allocates memory when disabled.

  ... along with some code cleanups"

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Documentation updates

 - Miscellaneous fixes

 - Callback-offload updates, perhaps most notably a new
   RCU_NOCB_CPU_DEFAULT_ALL Kconfig option that causes all CPUs to be
   offloaded at boot time, regardless of kernel boot parameters.

   This is useful to battery-powered systems such as ChromeOS and
   Android. In addition, a new RCU_NOCB_CPU_CB_BOOST kernel boot
   parameter prevents offloaded callbacks from interfering with
   real-time workloads and with energy-efficiency mechanisms

 - Polled grace-period updates, perhaps most notably making these APIs
   account for both normal and expedited grace periods

 - Tasks RCU updates, perhaps most notably reducing the CPU overhead of
   RCU tasks trace grace periods by more than a factor of two on a
   system with 15,000 tasks.

   The reduction is expected to increase with the number of tasks, so it
   seems reasonable to hypothesize that a system with 150,000 tasks
   might see a 20-fold reduction in CPU overhead

 - Torture-test updates

 - Updates that merge RCU's dyntick-idle tracking into context tracking,
   thus reducing the overhead of transitioning to kernel mode from
   either idle or nohz_full userspace execution for kernels that track
   context independently of RCU.

   This is expected to be helpful primarily for kernels built with
   CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y

* tag 'rcu.2022.07.26a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu: (98 commits)
  rcu: Add irqs-disabled indicator to expedited RCU CPU stall warnings
  rcu: Diagnose extended sync_rcu_do_polled_gp() loops
  rcu: Put panic_on_rcu_stall() after expedited RCU CPU stall warnings
  rcutorture: Test polled expedited grace-period primitives
