Pull sysctl table constification from Joel Granados:
"All ctl_table declared outside of functions and that remain unmodified
after initialization are const qualified.
This prevents unintended modifications to proc_handler function
pointers by placing them in the .rodata section.
This is a continuation of the tree-wide effort started a few releases
ago with the constification of the ctl_table struct arguments in the
sysctl API done in 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide: constify the
ctl_table argument of proc_handlers")"

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable
Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon""

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as
well as pgd_free(). Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level
alloc helper as well.
Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic
at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a
generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it. Instead we introduce two new helpers,
__pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific
pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible. To accommodate as many arch
as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order.
Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in
pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it. Some trivial
implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc()
is used; remove them.
Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using
GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate.
Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers. In
particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and
those PGDs may not be page-sized.

Pull SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"We see the addition of eleven new SoCs, including a total of sixx
arm64 chips from Qualcomm alone. Overall, the Qualcomm platforms once
again make up the majority of all changes, after a couple of quieter
releases.
The new SoCs in this branch are:
- Microchip sama7d65 is a new 32-bit embedded chip with a single
Cortex-A7 and the current high end of the old Atmel SoC line.
- Samsung Exynos 9810 is a mobile phone chip used in some older
phones like the Samsung Galaxy S9
- Renesas R-Car V4H ES3.0 (R8A779G3) is an updated version of the V4H
(R8A779G0) low-power automotive SoC
- Renesas RZ/G3E (R0A09G047) is a family of embedded chips using
Cortex-A55 cores
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite (SM8750) is a new phone chip based on
Qualcomm's Oryon CPU cores.
- Qualcomm Snapdragon AR2 (SAR2130P) is a SoC for augmented reality
glasses.
- Qualcomm IQ6 (QCS610) and IQ8 (QCS8300) are two industrial IOT
platforms.
- Snapdragon 425 (MSM8917) is a mobile phone SoC from 2016
- Qualcomm IPQ5424 is a Wi-Fi 7 networking chip
All of the above are part of already supported SoC families that only
need new devicetree files. Two additional SoCs in new families are
part of a separate branch.
There are 48 new machines in total, including six arm32 ones based on
aspeed. broadcom, microchip and st SoCs all using Cortex-A7 cores, and
a single risc-v board, the Banana Pi R3.
The remaining ones use arm64 chips from Broadcom, Samsung, NXP,
Mediatek, Qualcomm, Renesas and Rockchips and cover development
boards, phones, laptops, industrial machines routers.
A lot of ongoing work is for cleaning up build time warnings and other
issues, in addition to the new machines and added features"

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidate the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() by providing a
generic implementation and replacing the copy & pasta orgy in the
relevant architectures.
- Prevent unconditional operations on interrupt chips during kexec
shutdown, which can trigger warnings in certain cases when the
underlying interrupt has been shut down before.
- Make the enforcement of interrupt handling in interrupt context
unconditionally available, so that it actually works for non x86
related interrupt chips. The earlier enablement for ARM GIC chips set
the required chip flag, but did not notice that the check was hidden
behind a config switch which is not selected by ARM[64].
- Decrapify the handling of deferred interrupt affinity setting.
Some interrupt chips require that affinity changes are made from the
context of handling an interrupt to avoid certain race conditions.
For x86 this was the default, but with interrupt remapping this
requirement was lifted and a flag was introduced which tells the core
code that affinity changes can be done in any context. Unrestricted
affinity changes are the default for the majority of interrupt chips.
RISCV has the requirement to add the deferred mode to one of it's
interrupt controllers, but with the original implementation this
would require to add the any context flag to all other RISC-V
interrupt chips. That's backwards, so reverse the logic and require
that chips, which need the deferred mode have to be marked
accordingly. That avoids chasing the 'sane' chips and marking them.
- Add multi-node support to the Loongarch AVEC interrupt controller
driver.
- The usual tiny cleanups, fixes and improvements all over the place.

CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_STM32MP flag which is only used by STM32 MPUs.
Disable CONFIG_SUSPEND, CONFIG_ADVISE_SYSCALLS, CONFIG_IO_URING
CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS, CONFIG_GCC_PLUGINS, it will reduce the kernel

On ARMv7 / v7m machines read CTR and CLIDR registers to provide
information regarding the cache topology. Earlier machines should
describe full cache topology in the device tree.
Note, this follows the ARM64 cacheinfo support and provides only minimal
support required to bootstrap cache info. All useful properties should
be decribed in Device Tree.
