9c5968db9e The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs.
 
 - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes the
   page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and free
   zero-refcount pages.  So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a refcount
   inc & dec.
 
 - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to use
   large folios other than PMD-sized ones.
 
 - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance and
   fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest.
 
 - "mas_anode_descend() related cleanup" from Wei Yang tidies up part of
   the mapletree code.
 
 - "mm: fix format issues and param types" from Keren Sun implements a
   few minor code cleanups.
 
 - "simplify split calculation" from Wei Yang provides a few fixes and a
   test for the mapletree code.
 
 - "mm/vma: make more mmap logic userland testable" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   continues the work of moving vma-related code into the (relatively) new
   mm/vma.c.
 
 - "mm/page_alloc: gfp flags cleanups for alloc_contig_*()" from David
   Hildenbrand cleans up and rationalizes handling of gfp flags in the page
   allocator.
 
 - "readahead: Reintroduce fix for improper RA window sizing" from Jan
   Kara is a second attempt at fixing a readahead window sizing issue.  It
   should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading.
 
 - "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng
   addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are
   accumulated
   (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/).
   Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE memory
   within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED).
 
 - "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from
   Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests code
   when optional compiler warnings are enabled.
 
 - "mm: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating remote pages" from David
   Hildenbrand tightens the allocator's observance of __GFP_HARDWALL.

   fixes and cleanups in the MM selftests code, mainly pertaining to the
   pkeys tests.

   removes the global swap cgroup lock.  A speedup of 10% for a tmpfs-based
   kernel build was demonstrated.
 
 - "zram: split page type read/write handling" from Sergey Senozhatsky
   has several fixes and cleaups for zram in the area of zram_write_page().
   A watchdog softlockup warning was eliminated.
 
 - "move pagetable_*_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()" from Kevin Brodsky
   cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations.  A rare
   use-after-free race is fixed.
 
 - "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes
   simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging logic.
 
 - "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up and
   regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling.  This results in
   improvements in accounting accuracy.
 
 - "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new core
   functions" from SeongJae Park cleans up and generalizes DAMON's sysfs
   file interface logic.

   also inclusion (allowing) behavior.
 
 - "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi
   "introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently
   overlaps with struct page for now.  This is part of the effort to reduce
   the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of memory
   descriptors."
 
 - "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes and
   simplifies the swap allocator locking.  A speedup of 400% was
   demonstrated for one workload.  As was a 35% reduction for kernel build
   time with swap-on-zram.
 
 - "mm: update mips to use do_mmap(), make mmap_region() internal" from
   Lorenzo Stoakes reworks MIPS's use of mmap_region() so that
   mmap_region() can be made MM-internal.

   regressions and otherwise improves MGLRU performance.

6bf9b5b40a mm: alloc_pages_bulk: rename API
The previous commit removed the page_list argument from
alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() along with the alloc_pages_bulk_list() function.

Now that only the *_array() flavour of the API remains, we can do the
following renaming (along with the _noprof() ones):

  alloc_pages_bulk_array -> alloc_pages_bulk
  alloc_pages_bulk_array_mempolicy -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy
  alloc_pages_bulk_array_node -> alloc_pages_bulk_node

netfs: Add a tracepoint to log the lifespan of folio_queue structs
Add a tracepoint to log the lifespan of folio_queue structs.  For tracing
illustrative purposes, folio_queues are tagged with the debug ID of
whatever they're related to (typically a netfs_io_request) and a debug ID
of their own.

mm: Define struct folio_queue and ITER_FOLIOQ to handle a sequence of folios
Define a data structure, struct folio_queue, to represent a sequence of
folios and a kernel-internal I/O iterator type, ITER_FOLIOQ, to allow a
list of folio_queue structures to be used to provide a buffer to
iov_iter-taking functions, such as sendmsg and recvmsg.

The folio_queue structure looks like:

	struct folio_queue {
		struct folio_batch	vec;
		u8			orders[PAGEVEC_SIZE];
		struct folio_queue	*next;
		struct folio_queue	*prev;
		unsigned long		marks;
		unsigned long		marks2;
	};

It does not use a list_head so that next and/or prev can be set to NULL at
the ends of the list, allowing iov_iter-handling routines to determine that
they *are* the ends without needing to store a head pointer in the iov_iter
struct.

A folio_batch struct is used to hold the folio pointers which allows the
batch to be passed to batch handling functions.  Two mark bits are
available per slot.  The intention is to use at least one of them to mark
folios that need putting, but that might not be ultimately necessary.
Accessor functions are used to access the slots to do the masking and an
additional accessor function is used to indicate the size of the array.

The order of each folio is also stored in the structure to avoid the need
for iov_iter_advance() and iov_iter_revert() to have to query each folio to
find its size.

With careful barriering, this can be used as an extending buffer with new
folios inserted and new folio_queue structs added without the need for a
lock.  Further, provided we always keep at least one struct in the buffer,
we can also remove consumed folios and consumed structs from the head end
as we without the need for locks.

[Questions/thoughts]

 (1) To manage this, I need a head pointer, a tail pointer, a tail slot
     number (assuming insertion happens at the tail end and the next
     pointers point from head to tail).  Should I put these into a struct
     of their own, say "folio_queue_head" or "rolling_buffer"?

     I will end up with two of these in netfs_io_request eventually, one
     keeping track of the pagecache I'm dealing with for buffered I/O and
     the other to hold a bounce buffer when we need one.

 (2) Should I make the slots {folio,off,len} or bio_vec?

 (3) This is intended to replace ITER_XARRAY eventually.  Using an xarray
     in I/O iteration requires the taking of the RCU read lock, doing
     copying under the RCU read lock, walking the xarray (which may change
     under us), handling retries and dealing with special values.

     The advantage of ITER_XARRAY is that when we're dealing with the
     pagecache directly, we don't need any allocation - but if we're doing
     encrypted comms, there's a good chance we'd be using a bounce buffer
     anyway.

     This will require afs, erofs, cifs, orangefs and fscache to be
     converted to not use this.  afs still uses it for dirs and symlinks;
     some of erofs usages should be easy to change, but there's one which
     won't be so easy; ceph's use via fscache can be fixed by porting ceph
     to netfslib; cifs is using xarray as a bounce buffer - that can be
     moved to use sheaves instead; and orangefs has a similar problem to
     erofs - maybe orangefs could use netfslib?

70585f05fb kunit: Fix KUNIT_SUCCESS() calls in iov_iter tests
Fix KUNIT_SUCCESS() calls to pass a test argument.

This is a no-op for now because this macro does nothing, but it will be
required for the next commit.

a3c57ab79a iov_iter: Kunit tests for page extraction
Add some kunit tests for page extraction for ITER_BVEC, ITER_KVEC and
ITER_XARRAY type iterators.  ITER_UBUF and ITER_IOVEC aren't dealt with
as they require userspace VM interaction.  ITER_DISCARD isn't dealt with
either as that can't be extracted.
