Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
   creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
   the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
   this.

 - "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
   largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
   and better prepare us for future work.

 - "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
   Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
   memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
   block size.

 - "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
   Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
   sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
   compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
   memory consumption was dramatic.

 - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
   Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
   this part of our swap handling code.

 - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
   adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
   time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
   strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
   arguments, and syscall return value.

   This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
   branch, but I goofed.

 - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
   Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
   against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
   at the info about guard regions.

 - "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
   implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
   validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.

 - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
   Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
   decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
   using more current facilities.

 - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
   Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
   code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
   enabled for ARM.

 - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
   ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
   it already is for user pgtables.

   This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
   to protect page tables". This change does result in various
   architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
   it is anticipated to occur.

 - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
   Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.

 - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
   been missing for 15 years.

 - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
   SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.

   Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
   batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
   was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
   load this particular operation.

 - "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
   Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
   preallocation.

   stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
   the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
   reduced.

 - "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
   a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.

 - ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
   from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
   management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
   leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
   support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.

 - "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
   from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
   eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
   for memory tiering.

 - "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
   provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
   found via code inspection.

 - "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
   changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
   possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
   cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
   settings to violated.

   This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
   certain classes of memory more consistently.

 - "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
   pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
   in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.

 - "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
   for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.

 - "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
   Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
   for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.

   This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
   rather than file-backed folios.

 - "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
   first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
   VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
   time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.

 - "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
   and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
   ranges of invalid pfns.

 - "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
   cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
   when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.

   Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.

 - "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
   Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
   using JFS.

 - "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
   appropriate mm/vma.c.

 - "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
   provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
   function.

 - "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.

 - "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
   addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
   test_memcontrol selftest.

 - "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
   Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
   of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().

   The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
   things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.

 - "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
   the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.

   This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
   NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.

 - "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
   documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
   DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
   documents.

 - "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
   stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
   charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.

 - "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio
   instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio conversions in the
   hugetlb code.

We now have all bits in place to support KHO kexecs.  Add awareness of KHO
in the kexec file as well as boot path for arm64 and adds the respective
kconfig option to the architecture so that it can use KHO successfully.

Changes to the "chosen" node have been sent to

<content type='text'>
Drivers with "memory-region" properties currently have to do their own
parsing of "memory-region" properties. The result is all the drivers
have similar patterns of a call to parse "memory-region" and then get
the region's address and size. As this is a standard property, it should
have common functions for drivers to use. Add new functions to count the
number of regions and retrieve the region's address as a resource.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core &amp; protocols:

   - Continue Netlink conversions to per-namespace RTNL lock
     (IPv4 routing, routing rules, routing next hops, ARP ioctls)

   - Continue extending the use of netdev instance locks. As a driver
     opt-in protect queue operations and (in due course) ethtool
     operations with the instance lock and not RTNL lock.

   - Support collecting TCP timestamps (data submitted, sent, acked) in
     BPF, allowing for transparent (to the application) and lower
     overhead tracking of TCP RPC performance.

   - Tweak existing networking Rx zero-copy infra to support zero-copy
     Rx via io_uring.

   - Optimize MPTCP performance in single subflow mode by 29%.

   - Enable GRO on packets which went thru XDP CPU redirect (were queued
     for processing on a different CPU). Improving TCP stream
     performance up to 2x.

   - Improve performance of contended connect() by 200% by searching for
     an available 4-tuple under RCU rather than a spin lock. Bring an
     additional 229% improvement by tweaking hash distribution.

   - Avoid unconditionally touching sk_tsflags on RX, improving
     performance under UDP flood by as much as 10%.

   - Avoid skb_clone() dance in ping_rcv() to improve performance under
     ping flood.

   - Avoid FIB lookup in netfilter if socket is available, 20% perf win.

   - Rework network device creation (in-kernel) API to more clearly
     identify network namespaces and their roles. There are up to 4
     namespace roles but we used to have just 2 netns pointer arguments,
     interpreted differently based on context.

   - Use sysfs_break_active_protection() instead of trylock to avoid
     deadlocks between unregistering objects and sysfs access.

   - Add a new sysctl and sockopt for capping max retransmit timeout in
     TCP.

   - Support masking port and DSCP in routing rule matches.

   - Support dumping IPv4 multicast addresses with RTM_GETMULTICAST.

   - Support specifying at what time packet should be sent on AF_XDP
     sockets.

   - Expose TCP ULP diagnostic info (for TLS and MPTCP) to non-admin
     users.

   - Add Netlink YAML spec for WiFi (nl80211) and conntrack.

   - Introduce EXPORT_IPV6_MOD() and EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() for symbols
     which only need to be exported when IPv6 support is built as a
     module.

   - Age FDB entries based on Rx not Tx traffic in VxLAN, similar to
     normal bridging.

   - Allow users to specify source port range for GENEVE tunnels.

   - netconsole: allow attaching kernel release, CPU ID and task name to
     messages as metadata

  Driver API:

   - Continue rework / fixing of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) across
     the SW layers. Delegate the responsibilities to phylink where
     possible. Improve its handling in phylib.

   - Support symmetric OR-XOR RSS hashing algorithm.

   - Support tracking and preserving IRQ affinity by NAPI itself.

   - Support loopback mode speed selection for interface selftests.

  Device drivers:

   - Remove the IBM LCS driver for s390

   - Remove the sb1000 cable modem driver

Certain IP blocks may strictly require/expect a nE mapping to function
correctly, while others may be fine without it (which is preferred for
performance reasons).

Allow specifying nonposted-mmio on a per-device basis.

The nE memory attribute may be utilized by various implementations,
not limited to Apple Silicon platforms.

Drop the early CONFIG_ARCH_APPLE check.
