    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
    
     - Nick Piggin's "shoot lazy tlbs" series, to improve the peformance of
       switching from a user process to a kernel thread.
    
     - More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang, Zhang Peng and Pankaj
       Raghav.
    
     - zsmalloc performance improvements from Sergey Senozhatsky.
    
     - Yue Zhao has found and fixed some data race issues around the
       alteration of memcg userspace tunables.
    
     - VFS rationalizations from Christoph Hellwig:
         - removal of most of the callers of write_one_page()
         - make __filemap_get_folio()'s return value more useful
    
     - Luis Chamberlain has changed tmpfs so it no longer requires swap
       backing. Use `mount -o noswap'.
    
     - Qi Zheng has made the slab shrinkers operate locklessly, providing
       some scalability benefits.
    
     - Keith Busch has improved dmapool's performance, making part of its
       operations O(1) rather than O(n).
    
     - Peter Xu adds the UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED feature to userfaultd,
       permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.
    
     - Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
       rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
       caused by its unintuitive meaning.
    
     - Axel Rasmussen give userfaultfd the UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP feature,
       which causes minor faults to install a write-protected pte.
    
     - Vlastimil Babka has done some maintenance work on vma_merge():
       cleanups to the kernel code and improvements to our userspace test
       harness.
    
     - Cleanups to do_fault_around() by Lorenzo Stoakes.
    
     - Mike Rapoport has moved a lot of initialization code out of various
       mm/ files and into mm/mm_init.c.
    
     - Lorenzo Stoakes removd vmf_insert_mixed_prot(), which was added for
       DRM, but DRM doesn't use it any more.
    
     - Lorenzo has also coverted read_kcore() and vread() to use iterators
       and has thereby removed the use of bounce buffers in some cases.
    
     - Lorenzo has also contributed further cleanups of vma_merge().
    
     - Chaitanya Prakash provides some fixes to the mmap selftesting code.
    
     - Matthew Wilcox changes xfs and afs so they no longer take sleeping
       locks in ->map_page(), a step towards RCUification of pagefaults.
    
     - Suren Baghdasaryan has improved mmap_lock scalability by switching to
       per-VMA locking.
    
     - Frederic Weisbecker has reworked the percpu cache draining so that it
       no longer causes latency glitches on cpu isolated workloads.
    
     - Mike Rapoport cleans up and corrects the ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER Kconfig
       logic.
    
     - Liu Shixin has changed zswap's initialization so we no longer waste a
       chunk of memory if zswap is not being used.
    
     - Yosry Ahmed has improved the performance of memcg statistics
       flushing.
    
     - David Stevens has fixed several issues involving khugepaged,
       userfaultfd and shmem.
    
     - Christoph Hellwig has provided some cleanup work to zram's IO-related
       code paths.
    
     - David Hildenbrand has fixed up some issues in the selftest code's
       testing of our pte state changing.
    
     - Pankaj Raghav has made page_endio() unneeded and has removed it.
    
     - Peter Xu contributed some rationalizations of the userfaultfd
       selftests.
    
     - Yosry Ahmed has fixed an issue around memcg's page recalim
       accounting.
    
     - Chaitanya Prakash has fixed some arm-related issues in the
       selftests/mm code.
    
     - Longlong Xia has improved the way in which KSM handles hwpoisoned
       pages.
    
     - Peter Xu fixes a few issues with uffd-wp at fork() time.
    
     - Stefan Roesch has changed KSM so that it may now be used on a
       per-process and per-cgroup basis.
