Linus Torvalds 7fa8a8ee94 - 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.
