Provide stable parent and name to ->d_revalidate() instances
Most of the filesystem methods where we care about dentry name
and parent have their stability guaranteed by the callers;
->d_revalidate() is the major exception.
It's easy enough for callers to supply stable values for
expected name and expected parent of the dentry being
validated. That kills quite a bit of boilerplate in
->d_revalidate() instances, along with a bunch of races
where they used to access ->d_name without sufficient
precautions.

Pass parent directory inode and expected name to ->d_revalidate()
->d_revalidate() often needs to access dentry parent and name; that has to be done carefully, since the locking environment varies from caller to caller. We are not guaranteed that dentry in question will not be moved right under us - not unless the filesystem is such that nothing on it ever gets renamed. It can be dealt with, but that results in boilerplate code that isn't even needed - the callers normally have just found the dentry via dcache lookup and want to verify that it's in the right place; they already have the values of ->d_parent and ->d_name stable. There is a couple of exceptions (overlayfs and, to less extent, ecryptfs), but for the majority of calls that song and dance is not needed at all. It's easier to make ecryptfs and overlayfs find and pass those values if there's a ->d_revalidate() instance to be called, rather than doing that in the instances. This commit only changes the calling conventions; making use of supplied values is left to followups. NOTE: some instances need more than just the parent - things like CIFS may need to build an entire path from filesystem root, so they need more precautions than the usual boilerplate. This series doesn't do anything to that need - these filesystems have to keep their locking mechanisms (rename_lock loops, use of dentry_path_raw(), private rwsem a-la v9fs). One thing to keep in mind when using name is that name->name will normally point into the pathname being resolved; the filename in question occupies name->len bytes starting at name->name, and there is NUL somewhere after it, but it the next byte might very well be '/' rather than '\0'. Do not ignore name->len. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <gabriel@krisman.be> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> |

virtio-mem: support CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM
Let's implement the get_device_ram() vmcore callback, so architectures that select NEED_PROC_VMCORE_NEED_DEVICE_RAM, like s390 soon, can include that memory in a crash dump. Merge ranges, and process ranges that might contain a mixture of plugged and unplugged, to reduce the total number of ranges.

fs/proc/vmcore: introduce PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM to detect device RAM ranges in 2nd kernel
s390 allocates+prepares the elfcore hdr in the dump (2nd) kernel, not in the crashed kernel. RAM provided by memory devices such as virtio-mem can only be detected using the device driver; when vmcore_init() is called, these device drivers are usually not loaded yet, or the devices did not get probed yet. Consequently, on s390 these RAM ranges will not be included in the crash dump, which makes the dump partially corrupt and is unfortunate. Instead of deferring the vmcore_init() call, to an (unclear?) later point, let's reuse the vmcore_cb infrastructure to obtain device RAM ranges as the device drivers probe the device and get access to this information. Then, we'll add these ranges to the vmcore, adding more PT_LOAD entries and updating the offsets+vmcore size. Use a separate Kconfig option to be set by an architecture to include this code only if the arch really needs it. Further, we'll make the config depend on the relevant drivers (i.e., virtio_mem) once they implement support (next). The alternative of having a PROVIDE_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_RAM config option was dropped for now for simplicity. The current target use case is s390, which only creates an elf64 elfcore, so focusing on elf64 is sufficient.

These vmcore defines are not related to /proc/kcore, move them out. We'll move "struct vmcoredd_node" to vmcore.c, because it is only used internally. While "struct vmcore" is only used internally for now, we're planning on using it from inline functions in crash_dump.h next, so move it to crash_dump.h. While at it, rename "struct vmcore" to "struct vmcore_range", which is a more suitable name and will make the usage of it outside of vmcore.c clearer.

fs/proc/vmcore: disallow vmcore modifications while the vmcore is open
The vmcoredd_update_size() call and its effects (size/offset changes) are currently completely unsynchronized, and will cause trouble when performed concurrently, or when done while someone is already reading the vmcore. Let's protect all vmcore modifications by the vmcore_mutex, disallow vmcore modifications while the vmcore is open, and warn on vmcore modifications after the vmcore was already opened once: modifications while the vmcore is open are unsafe, and modifications after the vmcore was opened indicates trouble. Properly synchronize against concurrent opening of the vmcore. No need to grab the mutex during mmap()/read(): after we opened the vmcore, modifications are impossible. It's worth noting that modifications after the vmcore was opened are completely unexpected, so failing if open, and warning if already opened (+closed again) is good enough. This change not only handles concurrent adding of device dumps + concurrent reading of the vmcore properly, it also prepares for other mechanisms that will modify the vmcore.

fs/proc/vmcore: convert vmcore_cb_lock into vmcore_mutex
We want to protect vmcore modifications from concurrent opening of
the vmcore, and also serialize vmcore modification.
(a) We can currently modify the vmcore after it was opened. This can happen
if a vmcoredd is added after the vmcore module was initialized and
already opened by user space. We want to fix that and prepare for
new code wanting to serialize against concurrent opening.
(b) To handle it cleanly we need to protect the modifications against
concurrent opening. As the modifications end up allocating memory and
can sleep, we cannot rely on the spinlock.
Let's convert the spinlock into a mutex to prepare for further changes.

KSM_mergeable and KSM_merge_any. It helps administrators to better know
the system's KSM behavior at process level.
ksm_merge_any: yes/no
whether the process'mm is added by prctl() into the candidate list
of KSM or not, and fully enabled at process level.
ksm_mergeable: yes/no
whether any VMAs of the process'mm are currently applicable to KSM.
Purpose
=======
These two items are just to improve the observability of KSM at process
level, so that users can know if a certain process has enabled KSM.
For example, if without these two items, when we look at
/proc/<pid>/ksm_stat and there's no merging pages found, We are not sure
whether it is because KSM was not enabled or because KSM did not
successfully merge any pages.
Although "mg" in /proc/<pid>/smaps indicate VM_MERGEABLE, it's opaque
and not very obvious for non professionals.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Support caching symlink lengths in inodes
The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as
i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more
space
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about
1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4
- Add RWF_DONTCACHE iocb and FOP_DONTCACHE file_operations flag
If a file system supports uncached buffered IO, it may set
FOP_DONTCACHE and enable support for RWF_DONTCACHE.
If RWF_DONTCACHE is attempted without the file system supporting
it, it'll get errored with -EOPNOTSUPP
- Enable VBOXGUEST and VBOXSF_FS on ARM64
Now that VirtualBox is able to run as a host on arm64 (e.g. the
Apple M3 processors) we can enable VBOXSF_FS (and in turn
VBOXGUEST) for this architecture.
Tested with various runs of bonnie++ and dbench on an Apple MacBook
Pro with the latest Virtualbox 7.1.4 r165100 installed
Cleanups:
- Delay sysctl_nr_open check in expand_files()
- Use kernel-doc includes in fiemap docbook
- Use page->private instead of page->index in watch_queue
- Use a consume fence in mnt_idmap() as it's heavily used in
link_path_walk()
- Replace magic number 7 with ARRAY_SIZE() in fc_log
- Sort out a stale comment about races between fd alloc and dup2()
- Fix return type of do_mount() from long to int
- Various cosmetic cleanups for the lockref code
Fixes:
- Annotate spinning as unlikely() in __read_seqcount_begin
The annotation already used to be there, but got lost in commit

vfs: support caching symlink lengths in inodes
When utilized it dodges strlen() in vfs_readlink(), giving about 1.5% speed up when issuing readlink on /initrd.img on ext4. Filesystems opt in by calling inode_set_cached_link() when creating an inode. The size is stored in a new union utilizing the same space as i_devices, thus avoiding growing the struct or taking up any more space. Churn-wise the current readlink_copy() helper is patched to accept the size instead of calculating it.

proc/kcore: use percpu_rw_semaphore for kclist_lock
The list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore is protected by a rw_semaphore. We lock it for reading on every read from /proc/kcore. This is very heavy, especially since it is rarely locked for writing. Since we want to strongly favor read lock performance, convert it to a percpu_rw_semaphore. I also experimented with percpu_ref and SRCU, but this change was the simplest and the fastest. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by yet another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous two changes, from 195 nanoseconds per read to 175.

proc/kcore: don't walk list on every read
We maintain a list of memory ranges for /proc/kcore, which usually has 10-20 entries. Currently, every single read from /proc/kcore walks the entire list in order to count the number of entries and compute some offsets. These values only change when the list of memory ranges changes, which is very rare (only when memory is hot(un)plugged). We can cache the values when the list is populated to avoid these redundant walks. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by another 20 nanoseconds on top of the previous change, from 215 nanoseconds per read to 195.

proc/kcore: mark proc entry as permanent
drgn reads from /proc/kcore to debug the running kernel. For many drgn scripts, /proc/kcore is actually a bottleneck. use_pde() and unuse_pde() in prog_reg_read() show up hot in profiles. Since the entry for /proc/kcore can never be removed, this is useless overhead that can be trivially avoided by marking the entry as permanent. In my benchmark, this reduces the time per read by about 20 nanoseconds, from 235 nanoseconds per read to 215.

Summary
* sysctl ctl_table constification
Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of proc_handler
function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are const qualified in the
sysctl API in such a way that the ctl_table arrays being defined elsewhere
and passed through sysctl can be constified one-by-one. We kick the
constification off by qualifying user_table in kernel/ucount.c and expect all
the ctl_tables to be constified in the coming releases.
* Misc fixes
Adjust comments in two places to better reflect the code. Remove superfluous
dput calls. Remove Luis from sysctl maintainership. Replace comments about
holding a lock with calls to lockdep_assert_held.
* Testing
All these went through 0-day and they have all been in linux-next for at
least 1 month (since Oct-24). I also rand these through the sysctl selftest
for x86_64.

Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados:
"sysctl ctl_table constification:
- Constifying ctl_table structs prevents the modification of
proc_handler function pointers. All ctl_table struct arguments are
const qualified in the sysctl API in such a way that the ctl_table
arrays being defined elsewhere and passed through sysctl can be
constified one-by-one.
We kick the constification off by qualifying user_table in
kernel/ucount.c and expect all the ctl_tables to be constified in
the coming releases.

fs/proc/kcore.c: Clear ret value in read_kcore_iter after successful iov_iter_zero
If iov_iter_zero succeeds after failed copy_from_kernel_nofault,
we need to reset the ret value to zero otherwise it will be returned

A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the signal
of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be delivered once
the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small intervals
and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states for no value.
This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to the lock order of
posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with life time issues as
the timer and the sigqueue have different life time rules.
Cure this by:
* Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same life
time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of the timer
in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a always valid
container_of() now.
* Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
* Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the signal is
switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
* Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal delivery
code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they are
consistent across all situations. With that all self test scenarios
finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time stamps
by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode attributes
are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that the
VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
* Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
* Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline functions
and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper defines.
* Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the timer
wheel granularity on different HZ values into account. Right now the
boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail to provide the
requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
* Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions and fix
up stale documentation links all over the place
* Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as that's
the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the various user
space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file descriptor
based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited. They can't be
accessed fast as they always go all the way out to the hardware and
they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the kernel
provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework converts
timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality which operates
on pointers to data structures instead of using static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality for
the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less straight
forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the core
code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is already
prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
* Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with other
clusters.
* Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement

A set of updates for the interrupt subsystem:
- Tree wide:
* Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions
to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local
variables or function arguments of the same name.
- Core code:
* Prevent freeing an interrupt in the devres code which is not managed
by devres in the first place.
* Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal values output in
/proc/interrupts which increases performance significantly as it
avoids parsing the format strings over and over.
* Optimize raising the timer and hrtimer soft interrupts by using the
'set bit only' variants instead of the combined version which checks
whether ksoftirqd should be woken up. The latter is a pointless
exercise as both soft interrupts are raised in the context of the
timer interrupt and therefore never wake up ksoftirqd.
* Delegate timer/hrtimer soft interrupt processing to a dedicated thread
on RT.
Timer and hrtimer soft interrupts are always processed in ksoftirqd
on RT enabled kernels. This can lead to high latencies when other
soft interrupts are delegated to ksoftirqd as well.
The separate thread allows to run them seperately under a RT
scheduling policy to reduce the latency overhead.
- Drivers:
* New drivers or extensions of existing drivers to support Renesas
RZ/V2H(P), Aspeed AST27XX, T-HEAD C900 and ATMEL sam9x7 interrupt
chips
* Support for multi-cluster GICs on MIPS.
MIPS CPUs can come with multiple CPU clusters, where each CPU cluster
has its own GIC (Generic Interrupt Controller). This requires to
access the GIC of a remote cluster through a redirect register block.
This is encapsulated into a set of helper functions to keep the
complexity out of the actual code paths which handle the GIC details.
* Support for encrypted guests in the ARM GICV3 ITS driver
The ITS page needs to be shared with the hypervisor and therefore
must be decrypted.
* Small cleanups and fixes all over the place

finer-grained control of the shadow stack size and placement from libc
* AT_HWCAP3 support (not running out of HWCAP2 bits yet but we are
getting close with the upcoming dpISA support)
* Other arch features:
- In-kernel use of the memcpy instructions, FEAT_MOPS (previously only
exposed to user; uaccess support not merged yet)
- MTE: hugetlbfs support and the corresponding kselftests
- Optimise CRC32 using the PMULL instructions
- Support for FEAT_HAFT enabling ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG
- Optimise the kernel TLB flushing to use the range operations
- POE/pkey (permission overlays): further cleanups after bringing the
signal handler in line with the x86 behaviour for 6.12
* arm64 perf updates:
- Support for the NXP i.MX91 PMU in the existing IMX driver
- Support for Ampere SoCs in the Designware PCIe PMU driver
- Support for Marvell's 'PEM' PCIe PMU present in the 'Odyssey' SoC
- Support for Samsung's 'Mongoose' CPU PMU
- Support for PMUv3.9 finer-grained userspace counter access control
- Switch back to platform_driver::remove() now that it returns 'void'
- Add some missing events for the CXL PMU driver
* Miscellaneous arm64 fixes/cleanups:
- Page table accessors cleanup: type updates, drop unused macros,
reorganise arch_make_huge_pte() and clean up pte_mkcont(), sanity
check addresses before runtime P4D/PUD folding
- Command line override for ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ECV (advertising the
FEAT_ECV for the generic timers) allowing Linux to boot with
firmware deployments that don't set SCTLR_EL3.ECVEn
- ACPI/arm64: tighten the check for the array of platform timer
structures and adjust the error handling procedure in
gtdt_parse_timer_block()
- Optimise the cache flush for the uprobes xol slot (skip if no

Pull vfs file updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains changes the changes for files for this cycle:
- Introduce a new reference counting mechanism for files.
As atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a try_cmpxchg() loop
it has O(N^2) behaviour under contention with N concurrent
operations and it is in a hot path in __fget_files_rcu().
The rcuref infrastructures remedies this problem by using an
unconditional increment relying on safe- and dead zones to make
this work and requiring rcu protection for the data structure in
question. This not just scales better it also introduces overflow
protection.
However, in contrast to generic rcuref, files require a memory
barrier and thus cannot rely on *_relaxed() atomic operations and
also require to be built on atomic_long_t as having massive amounts
of reference isn't unheard of even if it is just an attack.
This adds a file specific variant instead of making this a generic
library.
This has been tested by various people and it gives consistent
improvement up to 3-5% on workloads with loads of threads.
- Add a fastpath for find_next_zero_bit(). Skip 2-levels searching
via find_next_zero_bit() when there is a free slot in the word that
contains the next fd. This improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read by 8%
and write by 4% on Intel ICX 160.
- Conditionally clear full_fds_bits since it's very likely that a bit
in full_fds_bits has been cleared during __clear_open_fds(). This
improves pts/blogbench-1.1.0 read up to 13%, and write up to 5% on
Intel ICX 160.
- Get rid of all lookup_*_fdget_rcu() variants. They were used to
lookup files without taking a reference count. That became invalid
once files were switched to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU and now we're
always taking a reference count. Switch to an already existing
helper and remove the legacy variants.
- Remove pointless includes of <linux/fdtable.h>.
- Avoid cmpxchg() in close_files() as nobody else has a reference to
the files_struct at that point.
- Move close_range() into fs/file.c and fold __close_range() into it.
- Cleanup calling conventions of alloc_fdtable() and expand_files().
- Merge __{set,clear}_close_on_exec() into one.
- Make __set_open_fd() set cloexec as well instead of doing it in two
separate steps"
* tag 'vfs-6.13.file' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
selftests: add file SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU recycling stressor

fs/proc/task_mmu: prevent integer overflow in pagemap_scan_get_args()
The "arg->vec_len" variable is a u64 that comes from the user at the start
of the function. The "arg->vec_len * sizeof(struct page_region))"
multiplication can lead to integer wrapping. Use size_mul() to avoid
that.
Also the size_add/mul() functions work on unsigned long so for 32bit
systems we need to ensure that "arg->vec_len" fits in an unsigned long.

proc/softirqs: replace seq_printf with seq_put_decimal_ull_width
seq_printf is costy, on a system with n CPUs, reading /proc/softirqs would yield 10*n decimal values, and the extra cost parsing format string grows linearly with number of cpus. Replace seq_printf with seq_put_decimal_ull_width have significant performance improvement. On an 8CPUs system, reading /proc/softirqs show ~40% performance gain with this patch.

posix-timers: Embed sigqueue in struct k_itimer
To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time races of all sorts. Now that the prerequisites are in place, embed the sigqueue into struct k_itimer and fixup the relevant usage sites. Aside of preparing for proper SIG_IGN handling, this spares an extra allocation.

get rid of __get_task_comm()
Patch series "Improve the copy of task comm", v8.
Using {memcpy,strncpy,strcpy,kstrdup} to copy the task comm relies on the
length of task comm. Changes in the task comm could result in a
destination string that is overflow. Therefore, we should explicitly
ensure the destination string is always NUL-terminated, regardless of the
task comm. This approach will facilitate future extensions to the task
comm.
As suggested by Linus [0], we can identify all relevant code with the
following git grep command:
git grep 'memcpy.*->comm\>'
git grep 'kstrdup.*->comm\>'
git grep 'strncpy.*->comm\>'
git grep 'strcpy.*->comm\>'
PATCH #2~#4: memcpy
PATCH #5~#6: kstrdup
PATCH #7: strcpy
Please note that strncpy() is not included in this series as it is being
tracked by another effort. [1]
This patch (of 7):
We want to eliminate the use of __get_task_comm() for the following
reasons:
- The task_lock() is unnecessary
Quoted from Linus [0]:
: Since user space can randomly change their names anyway, using locking
: was always wrong for readers (for writers it probably does make sense
: to have some lock - although practically speaking nobody cares there
: either, but at least for a writer some kind of race could have

mm: refactor mm_access() to not return NULL
mm_access() can return NULL if the mm is not found, but this is handled the same as an error in all callers, with some translating this into an -ESRCH error. Only proc_mem_open() returns NULL if no mm is found, however in this case it is clearer and makes more sense to explicitly handle the error. Additionally we take the opportunity to refactor the function to eliminate unnecessary nesting. Simplify things by simply returning -ESRCH if no mm is found - this both eliminates confusing use of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL() macro, and simplifies callers which would return -ESRCH by returning this error directly.

sysctl: Reduce dput(child) calls in proc_sys_fill_cache()
Replace two dput(child) calls with one that occurs immediately before
the IS_ERR evaluation. This transformation can be performed because
dput() gets called regardless of the value returned by IS_ERR(res).
This issue was transformed by using a script for the
semantic patch language like the following.
<SmPL>
@extended_adjustment@
expression e, f != { mutex_unlock }, x, y;
@@
+f(e);
if (...)
{
<+... when != \( e = x \| y(..., &e, ...) \)
- f(e);
...+>
}
-f(e);

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12-rc5.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
"afs:
- Fix a lock recursion in afs_wake_up_async_call() on ->notify_lock
netfs:
- Drop the references to a folio immediately after the folio has been
extracted to prevent races with future I/O collection
- Fix a documenation build error
- Downgrade the i_rwsem for buffered writes to fix a cifs reported
performance regression when switching to netfslib
vfs:
- Explicitly return -E2BIG from openat2() if the specified size is
unexpectedly large. This aligns openat2() with other extensible
struct based system calls
- When copying a mount namespace ensure that we only try to remove
the new copy from the mount namespace rbtree if it has already been
added to it
nilfs:
- Clear the buffer delay flag when clearing the buffer state clags
when a buffer head is discarded to prevent a kernel OOPs
ocfs2:
- Fix an unitialized value warning in ocfs2_setattr()
proc:
- Fix a kernel doc warning"
* tag 'vfs-6.12-rc5.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs:
proc: Fix W=1 build kernel-doc warning
afs: Fix lock recursion
fs: Fix uninitialized value issue in from_kuid and from_kgid
fs: don't try and remove empty rbtree node
netfs: Downgrade i_rwsem for a buffered write
nilfs2: fix kernel bug due to missing clearing of buffer delay flag
openat2: explicitly return -E2BIG for (usize > PAGE_SIZE)
netfs: fix documentation build error
netfs: In readahead, put the folio refs as soon extracted

proc: Fix W=1 build kernel-doc warning
Building the kernel with W=1 generates the following warning:
fs/proc/fd.c:81: warning: This comment starts with '/**',
but isn't a kernel-doc comment.
Use a normal comment for the helper function proc_fdinfo_permission().
