The writing of css->cgroup associated with the cgroup root in
rebind_subsystems() is currently protected only by cgroup_mutex.
However, the reading of css->cgroup in both proc_cpuset_show() and
proc_cgroup_show() is protected just by css_set_lock. That makes the
readers susceptible to racing problems like data tearing or caching.
It is also a problem that can be reported by KCSAN.
This can be fixed by using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to access
css->cgroup. Alternatively, the writing of css->cgroup can be moved
under css_set_lock as well which is done by this patch.

The ASoC cs35l56 driver was using hardcoded numbers instead of the

Currently __bio_integrity_endio frees the integrity payload unless it is
explicitly marked as user-mapped. This means in-kernel callers that
allocate their own integrity payload never get to see it on I/O
completion. The current two users don't need it as they just pre-mapped
PI tuples received over the network, but this limits uses of integrity
data lot.
Change bio_integrity_endio to call __bio_integrity_endio for block layer
generated integrity data only, and leave freeing of submitter
allocated integrity data to bio_uninit which also gets called from
the final bio_put. This requires that unmapping user mapped or copied
integrity data is now always done by the caller, and the special
BIP_INTEGRITY_USER flag can go away.

Commit b222dd2fdd ("block: call bio_uninit in bio_endio") added a call
to bio_uninit in bio_endio to work around callers that use bio_init but
fail to call bio_uninit after they are done to release the resources.
While this is an abuse of the bio_init API we still have quite a few of
those left. But this early uninit causes a problem for integrity data,
as at least some users need the bio_integrity_payload. Right now the
only one is the NVMe passthrough which archives this by adding a special
case to skip the freeing if the BIP_INTEGRITY_USER flag is set.
Sort this out by only putting bi_blkg in bio_endio as that is the cause
of the actual leaks - the few users of the crypto context and integrity
data all properly call bio_uninit, usually through bio_put for
dynamically allocated bios.

Queued invalidation wait descriptor status is volatile in that IOMMU
hardware writes the data upon completion.
Use READ_ONCE() to prevent compiler optimizations which ensures memory
reads every time. As a side effect, READ_ONCE() also enforces strict
types and may add an extra instruction. But it should not have negative
performance impact since we use cpu_relax anyway and the extra time(by
adding an instruction) may allow IOMMU HW request cacheline ownership
easier.
e.g. gcc 12.3
BEFORE:
81 38 ad de 00 00 cmpl $0x2,(%rax)
AFTER (with READ_ONCE())

Add documentation to describe the "Other Logic Block" system-controller.
It deals with three platforms: EyeQ5, EyeQ6L and EyeQ6H. First two have
a single instance, whereas EyeQ6H has seven named instances.
Features provided are:
- Clocks, children to main crystal. Some PLLs and divider clocks.
- Resets. Some instances DO NOT have reset.
- Pinctrl. Only EyeQ5 has such feature.
Those are NOT the only features exposed in OLB system-controllers! Many
individual registers, related to IP block integration, can be found.
Additional features will be exposed over time.
We simplify devicetree phandles to OLB in two ways:
- Compatibles exposing a single clock do not ask for a index argument.
This means we use EyeQ6H OLB south (it has four clocks):
clocks = <&olb_south EQ6HC_SOUTH_PLL_PER>;
But use EyeQ6H OLB east (it has one clock):
clocks = <&olb_east>;
- Compatibles exposing a single reset domain do not ask for a domain
index, only a reset index.
This means we use EyeQ5 OLB (it has three domains):
resets = <&olb 0 10>;
But use EyeQ6H west reset (it has one domain):
resets = <&olb_west 3>;
About pinctrl subnodes: all pins have two functionality, either GPIO or
something-else. The latter is pin dependent, we express constraints
using many if-then.

Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and
represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them
over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the
mappings.
The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid
before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries
are added.
As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range
that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a
flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in
case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range
of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that
process.

There should be no need to flush the memory in flush_thread. Doing this
likely worked around some issue where memory was still incorrectly
mapped when creating or cloning an MM.
With the removal of the special clone path, that isn't relevant anymore.
However, add the flush into MM initialization so that any new userspace
MM is guaranteed to be clean.

As running the syscalls is expensive due to context switches, we should
do so as late as possible in case more syscalls need to be queued later
on. This will also benefit a later move to a SECCOMP enabled userspace
as in that case the need for extra context switches is removed entirely.

The kernel flushes the memory ranges anyway for CoW and does not assume
that the userspace process has anything set up already. So, start with a
fresh process for the new mm context.

The current LDT code has a few issues that mean it should be redone in a
different way once we always start with a fresh MM even when cloning.
In a new and better world, the kernel would just ensure its own LDT is
clear at startup. At that point, all that is needed is a simple function
to populate the LDT from another MM in arch_dup_mmap combined with some
tracking of the installed LDT entries for each MM.
Note that the old implementation was even incorrect with regard to
reading, as it copied out the LDT entries in the internal format rather
than converting them to the userspace structure.
Removal should be fine as the LDT is not used for thread-local storage
anymore.

To keep the number of syscalls that the stub has to do lower, compress
two consecutive syscalls of the same type if the second is just a
continuation of the first.

Rework syscall handling to be platform independent. Also create a clean
split between queueing of syscalls and flushing them out, removing the
need to keep state in the code that triggers the syscalls.
The code adds syscall_data_len to the global mm_id structure. This will
be used later to allow surrounding code to track whether syscalls still
need to run and if errors occurred.
