Merge PAGE_CACHE_SIZE removal patches from Kirill Shutemov:
"PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The first patch with most changes has been done with coccinelle. The
second is manual fixups on top.
The third patch removes macros definition"
[ I was planning to apply this just before rc2, but then I spaced out,
so here it is right _after_ rc2 instead.
As Kirill suggested as a possibility, I could have decided to only
merge the first two patches, and leave the old interfaces for
compatibility, but I'd rather get it all done and any out-of-tree
modules and patches can trivially do the converstion while still also
working with older kernels, so there is little reason to try to
maintain the redundant legacy model. - Linus ]
* PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal:
mm: drop PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} definition
mm, fs: remove remaining PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} usage
mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

A sequence of pairs [class_idx -> corresponding chain_key iteration]
is printed for both the current held_lock chain and the cached chain.
That exposes the two different class_idx sequences that led to that
particular hash value.
This helps with debugging hash chain collision reports.

Fix this by always updating time if EVENT_TIME was set, as opposed to
only updating time when EVENT_TIME changed.

This patch functionally reverts:
5fd7a09cfb8c ("atomic: Export fetch_or()")
During the merge Linus observed that the generic version of fetch_or()
was messy:
" This makes the ugly "fetch_or()" macro that the scheduler used
internally a new generic helper, and does a bad job at it. "
e23604edac2a Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Now that we have introduced atomic_fetch_or(), fetch_or() is only used
by the scheduler in order to deal with thread_info flags which type
can vary across architectures.
Lets confine fetch_or() back to the scheduler so that we encourage
future users to use the more robust and well typed atomic_t version
instead.
While at it, fetch_or() gets robustified, pasting improvements from a
previous patch by Ingo Molnar that avoids needless expression
re-evaluations in the loop.

The tick dependency mask was intially unsigned long because this is the
type on which clear_bit() operates on and fetch_or() accepts it.
But now that we have atomic_fetch_or(), we can instead use
atomic_andnot() to clear the bit. This consolidates the type of our
tick dependency mask, reduce its size on structures and benefit from
possible architecture optimizations on atomic_t operations.

KASAN needs to know whether the allocation happens in an IRQ handler.
This lets us strip everything below the IRQ entry point to reduce the
number of unique stack traces needed to be stored.
Move the definition of __irq_entry to <linux/interrupt.h> so that the
users don't need to pull in <linux/ftrace.h>. Also introduce the
__softirq_entry macro which is similar to __irq_entry, but puts the
corresponding functions to the .softirqentry.text section.

When oom_reaper manages to unmap all the eligible vmas there shouldn't
be much of the freable memory held by the oom victim left anymore so it
makes sense to clear the TIF_MEMDIE flag for the victim and allow the
OOM killer to select another task.
The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory
reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get
the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again
due to the fatal_signal_pending resp. PF_EXITING check. We can safely
hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good
candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already.
This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE
and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom
reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct. This is
not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for
write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock
contention. This is not done by this patch.
Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from
__oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically
otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too
early.

Add map_flags attribute to bpf_map_show_fdinfo(), so that tools like
tc can check for them when loading objects from a pinned entry, e.g.
if user intent wrt allocation (BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC) is different to the
pinned object, it can bail out. Follow-up to 6c9059817432 ("bpf:
pre-allocate hash map elements"), so that tc can still support this
with v4.6.

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The second batch of power management and ACPI updates for v4.6.
Included are fixups on top of the previous PM/ACPI pull request and
other material that didn't make into it but still should go into 4.6.
Among other things, there's a fix for an intel_pstate driver issue
uncovered by recent cpufreq changes, a workaround for a boot hang on
Skylake-H related to the handling of deep C-states by the platform and
a PCI/ACPI fix for the handling of IO port resources on non-x86
architectures plus some new device IDs and similar.
Specifics:
- Fix for an intel_pstate driver issue related to the handling of MSR
updates uncovered by the recent cpufreq rework (Rafael Wysocki).
- cpufreq core cleanups related to starting governors and frequency
synchronization during resume from system suspend and a locking fix
for cpufreq_quick_get() (Rafael Wysocki, Richard Cochran).
- acpi-cpufreq and powernv cpufreq driver updates (Jisheng Zhang,
Michael Neuling, Richard Cochran, Shilpasri Bhat).
- intel_idle driver update preventing some Skylake-H systems from
hanging during initialization by disabling deep C-states mishandled
by the platform in the problematic configurations (Len Brown).
- Intel Xeon Phi Processor x200 support for intel_idle
(Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).
- cpuidle menu governor updates to make it always honor PM QoS
latency constraints (and prevent C1 from being used as the fallback
C-state on x86 when they are set below its exit latency) and to
restore the previous behavior to fall back to C1 if the next timer
event is set far enough in the future that was changed in 4.4 which
led to an energy consumption regression (Rik van Riel, Rafael
Wysocki).
- New device ID for a future AMD UART controller in the ACPI driver
for AMD SoCs (Wang Hongcheng).
- Rockchip rk3399 support for the rockchip-io-domain adaptive voltage
scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu).
- ACPI PCI resources management fix for the handling of IO space
resources on architectures where the IO space is memory mapped
(IA64 and ARM64) broken by the introduction of common ACPI
resources parsing for PCI host bridges in 4.4 (Lorenzo Pieralisi).
- Fix for the ACPI backend of the generic device properties API to
make it parse non-device (data node only) children of an ACPI
device correctly (Irina Tirdea).
- Fixes for the handling of global suspend flags (introduced in 4.4)
during hibernation and resume from it (Lukas Wunner).
- Support for obtaining configuration information from Device Trees
in the PM clocks framework (Jon Hunter).
- ACPI _DSM helper code and devfreq framework cleanups (Colin Ian
King, Geert Uytterhoeven)"

When suspending to RAM, waking up and later suspending to disk,
we gratuitously runtime resume devices after the thaw phase.
This does not occur if we always suspend to RAM or always to disk.
pm_complete_with_resume_check(), which gets called from
pci_pm_complete() among others, schedules a runtime resume
if PM_SUSPEND_FLAG_FW_RESUME is set. The flag is set during
a suspend-to-RAM cycle. It is cleared at the beginning of
the suspend-to-RAM cycle but not afterwards and it is not
cleared during a suspend-to-disk cycle at all. Fix it.

Add a flag to memremap() for writecombine mappings. Mappings satisfied
by this flag will not be cached, however writes may be delayed or
combined into more efficient bursts. This is most suitable for buffers
written sequentially by the CPU for use by other DMA devices.

These patches implement a MEMREMAP_WC flag for memremap(), which can be
used to obtain writecombine mappings. This is then used for setting up
dma_coherent_mem regions which use the DMA_MEMORY_MAP flag.
The motivation is to fix an alignment fault on arm64, and the suggestion
to implement MEMREMAP_WC for this case was made at [1]. That particular
issue is handled in patch 4, which makes sure that the appropriate
memset function is used when zeroing allocations mapped as IO memory.
This patch (of 4):
Don't modify the flags input argument to memremap(). MEMREMAP_WB is
already a special case so we can check for it directly instead of
clearing flag bits in each mapper.

The value of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE defines the size (including
padding) of the part of the struct siginfo that is before the union, and
it is then used to calculate the needed padding (SI_PAD_SIZE) to make
the size of struct siginfo equal to 128 (SI_MAX_SIZE) bytes.
Depending on the target architecture and word width it equals to either
3 or 4 times sizeof int.
Since the very beginning we had __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE wrong on the
parisc architecture for the 64bit kernel build. It's even more
frustrating, because it can easily be checked at compile time if the
value was defined correctly.
This patch adds such a check for the correctness of
__ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE in the hope that it will prevent existing and
future architectures from running into the same problem.
I refrained from replacing __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE by offsetof() in
copy_siginfo() in include/asm-generic/siginfo.h, because a) it doesn't
make any difference and b) it's used in the Documentation/kmemcheck.txt
example.
I ran this patch through the 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure and only
the parisc architecture triggered as expected. That means that this
patch should be OK for all major architectures.

kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing
(randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique
that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a
system. A notable user-space example is AFL
(http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not
widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel
support.
kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to
collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs.
To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard
interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or
non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking).
Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the
API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also
implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash
table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've
dropped the second mode for simplicity.
This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary
compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296.
We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has
found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs
We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller.
Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly
help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a
random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire.
Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset
coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A
typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid
input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as
reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic
blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of
kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of
that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always
background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage.
With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible.
kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is
insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.
Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

Commit 1717f2096b54 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic
on NMI") and commit 58c5661f2144 ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save
registers even if looping in NMI context") introduced nmi_panic() which
prevents concurrent/recursive execution of panic(). It also saves
registers for the crash dump on x86.
However, there are some cases where NMI handlers still use panic().
This patch set partially replaces them with nmi_panic() in those cases.
Even this patchset is applied, some NMI or similar handlers (e.g. MCE
handler) continue to use panic(). This is because I can't test them
well and actual problems won't happen. For example, the possibility
that normal panic and panic on MCE happen simultaneously is very low.
This patch (of 3):
Convert nmi_panic() to a proper function and export it instead of
exporting internal implementation details to modules, for obvious
reasons.

This commit fixes the following security hole affecting systems where
all of the following conditions are fulfilled:
- The fs.suid_dumpable sysctl is set to 2.
- The kernel.core_pattern sysctl's value starts with "/". (Systems
where kernel.core_pattern starts with "|/" are not affected.)
- Unprivileged user namespace creation is permitted. (This is
true on Linux >=3.8, but some distributions disallow it by
default using a distro patch.)
Under these conditions, if a program executes under secure exec rules,
causing it to run with the SUID_DUMP_ROOT flag, then unshares its user
namespace, changes its root directory and crashes, the coredump will be
written using fsuid=0 and a path derived from kernel.core_pattern - but
this path is interpreted relative to the root directory of the process,
allowing the attacker to control where a coredump will be written with
root privileges.
To fix the security issue, always interpret core_pattern for dumps that
are written under SUID_DUMP_ROOT relative to the root directory of init.

This test-case (simplified version of generated by syzkaller)

#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
void test(void)
{
for (;;) {
if (fork()) {
wait(NULL);

}
ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, getppid(), 0, 0);
ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, getppid(), 0, 0);
_exit(0);
}
}
int main(void)
{
int np;
for (np = 0; np < 8; ++np)
if (!fork())
test();
while (wait(NULL) > 0)
;
return 0;
}
triggers the 2nd WARN_ON_ONCE(!signr) warning in do_jobctl_trap(). The
problem is that __ptrace_unlink() clears task->jobctl under siglock but
task->ptrace is cleared without this lock held; this fools the "else"
branch which assumes that !PT_SEIZED means PT_PTRACED.
Note also that most of other PTRACE_SEIZE checks can race with detach
from the exiting tracer too. Say, the callers of ptrace_trap_notify()
assume that SEIZED can't go away after it was checked.

Seccomp wants to know the syscall bitness, not the caller task bitness,
when it selects the syscall whitelist.
As far as I know, this makes no difference on any architecture, so it's
not a security problem. (It generates identical code everywhere except
sparc, and, on sparc, the syscall numbering is the same for both ABIs.)

When new timeout is written to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs,
khungtaskd is interrupted and again sleeps for full timeout duration.
This means that hang task will not be checked if new timeout is written
periodically within old timeout duration and/or checking of hang task
will be delayed for up to previous timeout duration. Fix this by
remembering last time khungtaskd checked hang task.
This change will allow other watchdog tasks (if any) to share khungtaskd
by sleeping for minimal timeout diff of all watchdog tasks. Doing more
watchdog tasks from khungtaskd will reduce the possibility of printk()
collisions by multiple watchdog threads.

The trace_printk() code will allocate extra buffers if the compile detects
that a trace_printk() is used. To do this, the format of the trace_printk()
is saved to the __trace_printk_fmt section, and if that section is bigger
than zero, the buffers are allocated (along with a message that this has
happened).
If trace_printk() uses a format that is not a constant, and thus something
not guaranteed to be around when the print happens, the compiler optimizes
the fmt out, as it is not used, and the __trace_printk_fmt section is not
filled. This means the kernel will not allocate the special buffers needed
for the trace_printk() and the trace_printk() will not write anything to the
tracing buffer.
Adding a "__used" to the variable in the __trace_printk_fmt section will
keep it around, even though it is set to NULL. This will keep the string
from being printed in the debugfs/tracing/printk_formats section as it is
not needed.

Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups)
the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues.
The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates
time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that
light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in
relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past).
This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we
might be placing the current task.
The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any
other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any
other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment
in time, and not in the past.

The CPU controller hasn't kept up with the various changes in the whole
cgroup initialization / destruction sequence, and commit:
2e91fa7f6d45 ("cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups")
caused it to explode.
The reason for this is that zombies do not inhibit css_offline() from
being called, but do stall css_released(). Now we tear down the cfs_rq
structures on css_offline() but zombies can run after that, leading to
use-after-free issues.
The solution is to move the tear-down to css_released(), which
guarantees nobody (including no zombies) is still using our cgroup.
Furthermore, a few simple cleanups are possible too. There doesn't
appear to be any point to us using css_online() (anymore?) so fold that
in css_alloc().
And since cgroup code guarantees an RCU grace period between
css_released() and css_free() we can forgo using call_rcu() and free the
stuff immediately.

Sasha reported:
[ 3494.030114] UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:685:22
[ 3494.030647] shift exponent -1 is negative
Andrey spotted that this is because:
It happens if nr_pages = 0:
rb->page_order = ilog2(nr_pages);
Fix it by making both assignments conditional on nr_pages; since
otherwise they should both be 0 anyway, and will be because of the
kzalloc() used to allocate the structure.

There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism,
both triggered by the same action.
When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole
dynamic throttle.
This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the
value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by
writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will
generate a warning in dmesg.
The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge
number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the
limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on
the observed duration.

Its possible to IOC_PERIOD while the event is throttled, this would
re-start the event and the next tick would then try to unthrottle it,
and find the event wasn't actually stopped anymore.
This would tickle a WARN in the x86-pmu code which isn't expecting to
start a !stopped event.

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).
There's a background article at LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/
The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a
fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
virtual memory range.
This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also
allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
below).
This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
if a user-space application calls:
mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);
or
mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);
(note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
and unwritable.
So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security
advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.
We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.
There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
pull request.
Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
(CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
(like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's
any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
flip the default"

Pull 'objtool' stack frame validation from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds a new kernel build-time object file validation feature
(ONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y): kernel stack frame correctness validation.
It was written by and is maintained by Josh Poimboeuf.
The motivation: there's a category of hard to find kernel bugs, most
of them in assembly code (but also occasionally in C code), that
degrades the quality of kernel stack dumps/backtraces. These bugs are
hard to detect at the source code level. Such bugs result in
incorrect/incomplete backtraces most of time - but can also in some
rare cases result in crashes or other undefined behavior.
The build time correctness checking is done via the new 'objtool'
user-space utility that was written for this purpose and which is
hosted in the kernel repository in tools/objtool/. The tool's (very
simple) UI and source code design is shaped after Git and perf and
shares quite a bit of infrastructure with tools/perf (which tooling
infrastructure sharing effort got merged via perf and is already
upstream). Objtool follows the well-known kernel coding style.
Objtool does not try to check .c or .S files, it instead analyzes the
resulting .o generated machine code from first principles: it decodes
the instruction stream and interprets it. (Right now objtool supports
the x86-64 architecture.)
From tools/objtool/Documentation/stack-validation.txt:
"The kernel CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION option enables a host tool named
objtool which runs at compile time. It has a "check" subcommand
which analyzes every .o file and ensures the validity of its stack
metadata. It enforces a set of rules on asm code and C inline
assembly code so that stack traces can be reliable.
Currently it only checks frame pointer usage, but there are plans to
add CFI validation for C files and CFI generation for asm files.
For each function, it recursively follows all possible code paths
and validates the correct frame pointer state at each instruction.
It also follows code paths involving special sections, like
.altinstructions, __jump_table, and __ex_table, which can add
alternative execution paths to a given instruction (or set of
instructions). Similarly, it knows how to follow switch statements,
for which gcc sometimes uses jump tables."
When this new kernel option is enabled (it's disabled by default), the
tool, if it finds any suspicious assembly code pattern, outputs
warnings in compiler warning format:
warning: objtool: rtlwifi_rate_mapping()+0x2e7: frame pointer state mismatch
warning: objtool: cik_tiling_mode_table_init()+0x6ce: call without frame pointer save/setup
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3c0: duplicate frame pointer save
warning: objtool:__schedule()+0x3fd: sibling call from callable instruction with changed frame pointer
... so that scripts that pick up compiler warnings will notice them.
All known warnings triggered by the tool are fixed by the tree, most
of the commits in fact prepare the kernel to be warning-free. Most of
them are bugfixes or cleanups that stand on their own, but there are
also some annotations of 'special' stack frames for justified cases
such entries to JIT-ed code (BPF) or really special boot time code.
There are two other long-term motivations behind this tool as well:
- To improve the quality and reliability of kernel stack frames, so
that they can be used for optimized live patching.
- To create independent infrastructure to check the correctness of
CFI stack frames at build time. CFI debuginfo is notoriously
unreliable and we cannot use it in the kernel as-is without extra
checking done both on the kernel side and on the build side.
The quality of kernel stack frames matters to debuggability as well,
so IMO we can merge this without having to consider the live patching
or CFI debuginfo angle"

one is a spelling fix.
The two patches with actual content are designed to help prevent new

instances can still be replaced by a new instance without problem.
Nothing controversial, and everything passes our regression suite"

boundaries. From Tom Herbert.
6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.
7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface

traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
well.
8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.
9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for
ixgbe, from John Fastabend.
10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,

11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
From David Decotigny.
12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types

level attributes as a whole. From Jiri Pirko.
13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.
14) Add "Local Checksum Offload". Basically, for a tunneled packet
the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload
of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage
of that in various ways. From Edward Cree"
