Pull bcachefs fixes from Kent Overstreet:
 "Simple stuff:

   - NULL ptr/err ptr deref fixes

   - fix for getting wedged on shutdown after journal error

   - fix missing recalc_capacity() call, capacity now changes correctly
     after a device goes read only

     however: our capacity calculation still doesn't take into account
     when we have mixed ro/rw devices and the ro devices have data on
     them, that's going to be a more involved fix to separate accounting
     for "capacity used on ro devices" and "capacity used on rw devices"

   - boring syzbot stuff

  Slightly more involved:

   - discard, invalidate workers are now per device

     this has the effect of simplifying how we take device refs in these
     paths, and the device ref cleanup fixes a longstanding race between
     the device removal path and the discard path

   - fixes for how the debugfs code takes refs on btree_trans objects we
     have debugfs code that prints in use btree_trans objects.

     It uses closure_get() on trans-&gt;ref, which is mainly for the cycle
     detector, but the debugfs code was using it on a closure that may
     have hit 0, which is not allowed; for performance reasons we cannot
     avoid having not-in-use transactions on the global list.

     Introduce some new primitives to fix this and make the
     synchronization here a whole lot saner"

Provide new primitives for solving a lifetime issue with bcachefs
btree_trans objects.

closure_sync_return(): like closure_sync(), wait synchronously for any
outstanding gets. like closure_return, the closure is considered
"finished" and the ref left at 0.

closure_get_not_zero(): get a ref on a closure if it's alive, i.e. the
ref is not zero.

 "Lots of (mostly boring) fixes for syzbot bugs and rare(r) CI bugs.

  The LRU_TIME_BITS fix was slightly more involved; we only have 48 bits
  for the LRU position (we would prefer 64), so wraparound is possible
  for the cached data LRUs on a filesystem that has done sufficient
  (petabytes) reads; this is now handled.

  One notable user reported bugfix, where we were forgetting to
  correctly set the bucket data type, which should have been
  BCH_DATA_need_gc_gens instead of BCH_DATA_free; this was causing us to
  go emergency read-only on a filesystem that had seen heavy enough use
  to see bucket gen wraparoud.

  We're now starting to fix simple (safe) errors without requiring user
  intervention - i.e. a small incremental step towards full self
  healing.

  This is currently limited to just certain allocation information
  counters, and the error is still logged in the superblock; see that
  patch for more information. ("bcachefs: Fix safe errors by default")"

<title>cpumask: limit FORCE_NR_CPUS to just the UP case</title>
<updated>2024-06-18T16:00:04+00:00</updated>

<content type='text'>
Hardcoding the number of CPUs at compile time does improve code
generation, but if you get it wrong the result will be confusion.

We already limited this earlier to only "experts" (see commit
fe5759d5bfda "cpumask: limit visibility of FORCE_NR_CPUS"), but with
distro kernel configs often having EXPERT enabled, that turns out to not
be much of a limit.

To quote the philosophers at Disney: "Everyone can be an expert. And
when everyone's an expert, no one will be".

There's a runtime warning if you then set nr_cpus to anything but the
forced number, but apparently that can be ignored too [1] and by then
it's pretty much too late anyway.

If we had some real way to limit this to "embedded only", maybe it would
be worth it, but let's see if anybody even notices that the option is
gone.  We need to simplify kernel configuration anyway.

Memory allocation profiling is trying to register sysctl interface even
when CONFIG_SYSCTL=n, resulting in proc_do_static_key() being undefined. 
Prevent that by skipping sysctl registration for such configurations.
