Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
   F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
   memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
   bit.

 - Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
   thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
   related to PMD unsharing.

 - Several folioification patch serieses from Matthew Wilcox, Vishal
   Moola, Sidhartha Kumar and Lorenzo Stoakes

 - Johannes Weiner has a series ("mm: push down lock_page_memcg()")
   which does perform some memcg maintenance and cleanup work.

 - SeongJae Park has added DAMOS filtering to DAMON, with the series
   "mm/damon/core: implement damos filter".

   These filters provide users with finer-grained control over DAMOS's
   actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.

 - Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").

 - Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
   tree".

 - Yu Zhao has contributed the "mm: multi-gen LRU: memcg LRU" series. It
   adds to MGLRU an LRU of memcgs, to improve the scalability of global
   reclaim.

 - David Hildenbrand has added some userfaultfd cleanup work in the
   series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed the generic_writepages() library
   function in the series "remove generic_writepages".

 - Baolin Wang has performed some maintenance on the compaction code in
   his series "Some small improvements for compaction".

 - Sidhartha Kumar is doing some maintenance work on struct page in his
   series "Get rid of tail page fields".

 - David Hildenbrand contributed some cleanup, bugfixing and
   generalization of pte management and of pte debugging in his series
   "mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all architectures with
   swap PTEs".

 - Mel Gorman and Neil Brown have removed the __GFP_ATOMIC allocation
   flag in the series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC".

 - Sergey Senozhatsky has improved zsmalloc's memory utilization with
   his series "zsmalloc: make zspage chain size configurable".

 - Joey Gouly has added prctl() support for prohibiting the creation of
   writeable+executable mappings.

   The previous BPF-based approach had shortcomings. See "mm: In-kernel
   support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)".

 - Waiman Long did some kmemleak cleanup and bugfixing in the series
   "mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() &amp; fix UAF".

 - T.J. Alumbaugh has contributed some MGLRU cleanup work in his series
   "mm: multi-gen LRU: improve".

 - Jiaqi Yan has provided some enhancements to our memory error
   statistics reporting, mainly by presenting the statistics on a
   per-node basis. See the series "Introduce per NUMA node memory error
   statistics".

 - Mel Gorman has a second and hopefully final shot at fixing a CPU-hog
   regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
   during compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
   "cleanup vfree and vunmap".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in
   ths series "remove -&gt;rw_page".

 - We get some maple_tree improvements and cleanups in Liam Howlett's
   series "VMA tree type safety and remove __vma_adjust()".

 - Suren Baghdasaryan has done some work on the maintainability of our
   vm_flags handling in the series "introduce vm_flags modifier
   functions".

 - Some pagemap cleanup and generalization work in Mike Rapoport's
   series "mm, arch: add generic implementation of pfn_valid() for
   FLATMEM" and "fixups for generic implementation of pfn_valid()"

 - Baoquan He has done some work to make /proc/vmallocinfo and
   /proc/kcore better represent the real state of things in his series
   "mm/vmalloc.c: allow vread() to read out vm_map_ram areas".

 - Jason Gunthorpe rationalized the GUP system's interface to the rest
   of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
   GUP".

 - SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
   over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.

 - Huang Ying has provided a dramatic reduction in migration's TLB flush
   IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".

 - Arnd Bergmann has some objtool fixups in "objtool warning fixes".

Every architecture that supports FLATMEM memory model defines its own
version of pfn_valid() that essentially compares a pfn to max_mapnr.

Use mips/powerpc version implemented as static inline as a generic
implementation of pfn_valid() and drop its per-architecture definitions.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by using bit 5, which is yet
unused.  The only important parts seems to be to not use _PAGE_PRESENT
(bit 9).

<title>arch/idle: Change arch_cpu_idle() behavior: always exit with IRQs disabled</title>

<content type='text'>
Current arch_cpu_idle() is called with IRQs disabled, but will return
with IRQs enabled.

However, the very first thing the generic code does after calling
arch_cpu_idle() is raw_local_irq_disable(). This means that
architectures that can idle with IRQs disabled end up doing a
pointless 'enable-disable' dance.

Therefore, push this IRQ disabling into the idle function, meaning
that those architectures can avoid the pointless IRQ state flipping.

such, add a little validation.

   that drivers no longer need to use the FOLL_FORCE workaround which
   didn't work very well anyway

 - Mel Gorman altered the page allocator so that local IRQs can remnain
   enabled during per-cpu page allocations

 - Vishal Moola removed the try_to_release_page() wrapper

 - Stefan Roesch added some per-BDI sysfs tunables which are used to
   prevent network block devices from dirtying excessive amounts of
   pagecache

 - David Hildenbrand did some cleanup and repair work on KSM COW
   breaking

   Chen

 - Shiyang Ruan has done some work on fsdax, to make its reflink mode
   work better under xfstests. Better, but still not perfect

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed the .writepage() method from several
   filesystems. They only need .writepages()

 - Yosry Ahmed wrote a series which fixes the memcg reclaim target
   beancounting

 - David Hildenbrand has fixed some of our MM selftests for 32-bit
   machines

 - Many singleton patches, as usual

Patch series "Make user_regset_copyin_ignore() *void*".

user_regset_copyin_ignore() apparently cannot fail and so always returns 0.
Let's first remove the result checks in several architectures that call this
function and then make user_regset_copyin_ignore() return *void* instead of
*int*...


This patch (of 13):

user_regset_copyin_ignore() always returns 0, so checking its result seems
pointless -- don't do this anymore...

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address.  So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

<content type='text'>
Since commit d9820ff ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
a memory leakage problem occurs. Memory allocated for page table entries
not released during process termination. This issue can be reproduced by
a small program that allocates a large amount of memory. After several
runs, you'll see that the amount of free memory has reduced and will
continue to reduce after each run. All ARC CPUs are effected by this
issue. The issue was introduced since the kernel stable release v5.15-rc1.

As described in commit d9820ff after switch pgtable_t back to struct
page *, a pointer to "struct page" and appropriate functions are used to
allocate and free a memory page for PTEs, but the pmd_pgtable macro hasn't
changed and returns the direct virtual address from the PMD (PGD) entry.
Than this address used as a parameter in the __pte_free() and as a result
this function couldn't release memory page allocated for PTEs.

Fix this issue by changing the pmd_pgtable macro and returning pointer to
struct page.

Fixes: d9820ff76f95 ("ARC: mm: switch pgtable_t back to struct page *")
