Pull bcachefs fixes from Kent Overstreet:
 "Assorted little stuff:

   - lockdep fixup for lockdep_set_notrack_class()

   - we can now remove a device when using erasure coding without
     deadlocking, though we still hit other issues

   - the 'allocator stuck' timeout is now configurable, and messages are
     ratelimited. The default timeout has been increased from 10 seconds
     to 30"

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:

 - Metadata version 1.8: Stripe sectors accounting, BCH_DATA_unstriped

   This splits out the accounting of dirty sectors and stripe sectors in
   alloc keys; this lets us see stripe buckets that still have unstriped
   data in them.

   This is needed for ensuring that erasure coding is working correctly,
   as well as completing stripe creation after a crash.

 - Metadata version 1.9: Disk accounting rewrite

   The previous disk accounting scheme relied heavily on percpu counters
   that were also sharded by outstanding journal buffer; it was fast but
   not extensible or scalable, and meant that all accounting counters
   were recorded in every journal entry.

   The new disk accounting scheme stores accounting as normal btree
   keys; updates are deltas until they are flushed by the btree write
   buffer.

   This means we have no practical limit on the number of counters, and
   a new tagged union format that's easy to extend.

   We now have counters for compression type/ratio, per-snapshot-id
   usage, per-btree-id usage, and pending rebalance work.

 - Self healing on read IO/checksum error

   Data is now automatically rewritten if we get a read error and then a
   successful retry

 - Mount API conversion (thanks to Thomas Bertschinger)

 - Better lockdep coverage

   Previously, btree node locks were tracked individually by lockdep,
   like any other lock. But we may take _many_ btree node locks
   simultaneously, we easily blow through the limit of 48 locks that
   lockdep can track, leading to lockdep turning itself off.

   Tracking each btree node lock individually isn't really necessary
   since we have our own cycle detector for deadlock avoidance and
   centralized tracking of btree node locks, so we now have a single
   lockdep_map in btree_trans for "any btree nodes are locked".

 - Some more small incremental work towards online check_allocations

 - Lots more debugging improvements

 - Fixes, including:
    - undefined behaviour fixes, originally noted as breaking userspace
      LTO builds
    - fix a spurious warning in fsck_err, reported by Marcin
    - fix an integer overflow on trans-&gt;nr_updates, also reported by
      Marcin; this broke during deletion of highly fragmented indirect
      extents

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Not much excitement - a handful of large patchsets (devmem among them)
  did not make it in time.

  Core &amp; protocols:

   - Use local_lock in addition to local_bh_disable() to protect per-CPU
     resources in networking, a step closer for local_bh_disable() not
     to act as a big lock on PREEMPT_RT

   - Use flex array for netdevice priv area, ensure its cache alignment

   - Add a sysctl knob to allow user to specify a default rto_min at
     socket init time. Bit of a big hammer but multiple companies were
     independently carrying such patch downstream so clearly it's useful

   - Support scheduling transmission of packets based on CLOCK_TAI

   - Un-pin TCP TIMEWAIT timer to avoid it firing on CPUs later cordoned
     off using cpusets

   - Support multiple L2TPv3 UDP tunnels using the same 5-tuple address

   - Allow configuration of multipath hash seed, to both allow
     synchronizing hashing of two routers, and preventing partial
     accidental sync

   - Improve TCP compliance with RFC 9293 for simultaneous connect()

   - Support sending NAT keepalives in IPsec ESP in UDP states.
     Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the kernel can
     better keep track of it

   - Support sending supervision HSR frames with MAC addresses stored in
     ProxyNodeTable when RedBox (i.e. HSR-SAN) is enabled

   - Introduce IPPROTO_SMC for selecting SMC when socket is created

   - Allow UDP GSO transmit from devices with no checksum offload

   - openvswitch: add packet sampling via psample, separating the
     sampled traffic from "upcall" packets sent to user space for
     forwarding

   - nf_tables: shrink memory consumption for transaction objects

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Power Sequencing subsystem (used by Qualcomm Bluetooth driver for
     QCA6390)           [ Already merged separately - Linus ]

   - Add IRQ information in sysfs for auxiliary bus

   - Introduce guard definition for local_lock

   - Add aligned flavor of __cacheline_group_{begin, end}() markings for
     grouping fields in structures

  BPF:

   - Notify user space (via epoll) when a struct_ops object is getting
     detached/unregistered

   - Add new kfuncs for a generic, open-coded bits iterator

   - Enable BPF programs to declare arrays of kptr, bpf_rb_root, and
     bpf_list_head

   - Support resilient split BTF which cuts down on duplication and
     makes BTF as compact as possible WRT BTF from modules

   - Add support for dumping kfunc prototypes from BTF which enables
     both detecting as well as dumping compilable prototypes for kfuncs

   - riscv64 BPF JIT improvements in particular to add 12-argument
     support for BPF trampolines and to utilize bpf_prog_pack for the
     latter

   - Add the capability to offload the netfilter flowtable in XDP layer
     through kfuncs

  Driver API:

   - Allow users to configure IRQ tresholds between which automatic IRQ
     moderation can choose

   - Expand Power Sourcing (PoE) status with power, class and failure
     reason. Support setting power limits

   - Track additional RSS contexts in the core, make sure configuration
     changes don't break them

   - Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated
     ESP data paths

   - Support updating firmware on SFP modules

  Tests and tooling:

   - mptcp: use net/lib.sh to manage netns

   - TCP-AO and TCP-MD5: replace debug prints used by tests with
     tracepoints

   - openvswitch: make test self-contained (don't depend on OvS CLI
     tools)

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Not much excitement - a handful of large patchsets (devmem among them)
  did not make it in time.

  Core &amp; protocols:

   - Use local_lock in addition to local_bh_disable() to protect per-CPU
     resources in networking, a step closer for local_bh_disable() not
     to act as a big lock on PREEMPT_RT

   - Use flex array for netdevice priv area, ensure its cache alignment

   - Add a sysctl knob to allow user to specify a default rto_min at
     socket init time. Bit of a big hammer but multiple companies were
     independently carrying such patch downstream so clearly it's useful

   - Support scheduling transmission of packets based on CLOCK_TAI

   - Un-pin TCP TIMEWAIT timer to avoid it firing on CPUs later cordoned
     off using cpusets

   - Support multiple L2TPv3 UDP tunnels using the same 5-tuple address

   - Allow configuration of multipath hash seed, to both allow
     synchronizing hashing of two routers, and preventing partial
     accidental sync

   - Improve TCP compliance with RFC 9293 for simultaneous connect()

   - Support sending NAT keepalives in IPsec ESP in UDP states.
     Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the kernel can
     better keep track of it

   - Support sending supervision HSR frames with MAC addresses stored in
     ProxyNodeTable when RedBox (i.e. HSR-SAN) is enabled

   - Introduce IPPROTO_SMC for selecting SMC when socket is created

   - Allow UDP GSO transmit from devices with no checksum offload

   - openvswitch: add packet sampling via psample, separating the
     sampled traffic from "upcall" packets sent to user space for
     forwarding

   - nf_tables: shrink memory consumption for transaction objects

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Power Sequencing subsystem (used by Qualcomm Bluetooth driver for
     QCA6390)           [ Already merged separately - Linus ]

   - Add IRQ information in sysfs for auxiliary bus

   - Introduce guard definition for local_lock

   - Add aligned flavor of __cacheline_group_{begin, end}() markings for
     grouping fields in structures

  BPF:

   - Notify user space (via epoll) when a struct_ops object is getting
     detached/unregistered

   - Add new kfuncs for a generic, open-coded bits iterator

   - Enable BPF programs to declare arrays of kptr, bpf_rb_root, and
     bpf_list_head

   - Support resilient split BTF which cuts down on duplication and
     makes BTF as compact as possible WRT BTF from modules

   - Add support for dumping kfunc prototypes from BTF which enables
     both detecting as well as dumping compilable prototypes for kfuncs

   - riscv64 BPF JIT improvements in particular to add 12-argument
     support for BPF trampolines and to utilize bpf_prog_pack for the
     latter

   - Add the capability to offload the netfilter flowtable in XDP layer
     through kfuncs

  Driver API:

   - Allow users to configure IRQ tresholds between which automatic IRQ
     moderation can choose

   - Expand Power Sourcing (PoE) status with power, class and failure
     reason. Support setting power limits

   - Track additional RSS contexts in the core, make sure configuration
     changes don't break them

   - Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated
     ESP data paths

   - Support updating firmware on SFP modules

  Tests and tooling:

   - mptcp: use net/lib.sh to manage netns

   - TCP-AO and TCP-MD5: replace debug prints used by tests with
     tracepoints

   - openvswitch: make test self-contained (don't depend on OvS CLI
     tools)

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:

 - Remove "-&gt;procname == NULL" check when iterating through sysctl table
   arrays

   Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size
   and runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. With all
   ctl_table sentinels gone, the additional check for -&gt;procname == NULL
   that worked in tandem with the ARRAY_SIZE to calculate the size of
   the ctl_table arrays is no longer needed and has been removed. The
   sysctl register functions now returns an error if a sentinel is used.

 - Preparation patches for sysctl constification

   Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of
   proc_handler function pointers as they would reside in .rodata. The
   ctl_table arguments in sysctl utility functions are const qualified
   in preparation for a future treewide proc_handler argument
   constification commit.

 - Misc fixes

   Increase robustness of set_ownership by providing sane default
   ownership values in case the callee doesn't set them. Bound check
   proc_dou8vec_minmax to avoid loading buggy modules and give sysctl
   testing module a name to avoid compiler complaints.

Add a new helper to disable lockdep tracking entirely for a given class.

This is needed for bcachefs, which takes too many btree node locks for
lockdep to track. Instead, we have a single lockdep_map for "btree_trans
has any btree nodes locked", which makes more since given that we have
centralized lock management and a cycle detector.

Add a new helper to disable lockdep tracking entirely for a given class.

This is needed for bcachefs, which takes too many btree node locks for
lockdep to track. Instead, we have a single lockdep_map for "btree_trans
has any btree nodes locked", which makes more since given that we have
centralized lock management and a cycle detector.

The xen_nopvspin boot parameter is deprecated since 2019. nopvspin
can be used instead.

Remove the xen_nopvspin boot parameter and replace the xen_pvspin
variable use cases with nopvspin.

This requires to move the nopvspin variable out of the .initdata
section, as it needs to be accessed for cpuhotplug, too.
