<content type='text'>
Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  disble||disable
  disbled||disabled

I kept the TSL2563_INT_DISBLED in /drivers/iio/light/tsl2563.c
untouched.  The macro is not referenced at all, but this commit is
touching only comment blocks just in case.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/mm.h&gt;</title>

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/mm.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/mm.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

The APIs that are going to be moved first are:

   mm_alloc()
   __mmdrop()
   mmdrop()
   mmdrop_async_fn()
   mmdrop_async()
   mmget_not_zero()
   mmput()
   mmput_async()
   get_task_mm()
   mm_access()
   mm_release()

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "Several noteworthy changes.

   - Parav's rdma controller is finally merged. It is very straight
     forward and can limit the abosolute numbers of common rdma
     constructs used by different cgroups.

   - kernel/cgroup.c got too chubby and disorganized. Created
     kernel/cgroup/ subdirectory and moved all cgroup related files
     under kernel/ there and reorganized the core code. This hurts for
     backporting patches but was long overdue.

   - cgroup v2 process listing reimplemented so that it no longer
     depends on allocating a buffer large enough to cache the entire
     result to sort and uniq the output. v2 has always mangled the sort
     order to ensure that users don't depend on the sorted output, so
     this shouldn't surprise anybody. This makes the pid listing
     functions use the same iterators that are used internally, which
     have to have the same iterating capabilities anyway.

   - perf cgroup filtering now works automatically on cgroup v2. This
     patch was posted a long time ago but somehow fell through the
     cracks.

   - misc fixes asnd documentation updates"

-&gt;fault(), -&gt;page_mkwrite(), and -&gt;pfn_mkwrite() calls do not need to
take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf.

Remove the vma parameter to simplify things.

Use "proc_dointvec_minmax" instead of "proc_dointvec" to check the input
value from user-space.

If not, we can set a big value and some vars will overflow like
"sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate" which will cause a lot of unexpected
problems.

Where commit:

  7fce250915ef ("perf: Fix scaling vs.  perf_event_enable_on_exec()")

disabled the ctx-time a-priory, such that all events get enabled and
scheduled at the time point in time, there is one hole in that patch,
when no events do get enabled nothing re-enables the ctx-time.

<title>perf/core: Remove confusing comment and move put_ctx()</title>

Since commit:

  321027c1fe77 ("perf/core: Fix concurrent sys_perf_event_open() vs. 'move_group' race")

... the code looks like (assuming move_group==1):

  gctx = __perf_event_ctx_lock_double(group_leader, ctx);

  perf_remove_from_context(group_leader, 0);
  list_for_each_entry(sibling, &amp;group_leader-&gt;sibling_list, group_entry) {
	perf_remove_from_context(sibling, 0);
	put_ctx(gctx);
  }

  /* ... */

  /* misleading comment about how this is the last reference */
  put_ctx(gctx);

  perf_event_ctx_unlock(group_leader, gctx);

What that 'last' put_ctx() does is drop @group_leader's reference on
gctx after having dropped all its potential sibling references.

But the thing is that __perf_event_ctx_lock_double() returns with a
reference _and_ a held lock, and perf_event_ctx_unlock() unlocks that
lock and drops that reference. Therefore that put_ctx() cannot be the
'last' of anything, nor is there an unbalance in puts.

To reduce confusion, remove the comment and place the put_ctx() next
to the remove_from_context() call.
