Unaligned exception handler is needed in configurations with hardware
support for unaligned access when the load/store exception handler is
enabled because such configurations would still raise an exception on
unaligned access through the instruction bus.

split_if_spec expects a NULL-pointer as an end marker for the argument
list, but tuntap_probe never supplied that terminating NULL. As a result
incorrectly formatted interface specification string may cause a crash
because of the random memory access. Fix that by adding NULL terminator
to the split_if_spec argument list.

iss_net_configure explicitly frees etherdev in all error return paths
except one where register_netdevice fails. In that remaining error
return path the etherdev is freed by the iss_net_pdev_release callback
triggered by the platform_device_unregister call. Add a comment stating
that.

This modifies our user mode stack expansion code to always take the
mmap_lock for writing before modifying the VM layout.

It's actually something we always technically should have done, but
because we didn't strictly need it, we were being lazy ("opportunistic"
sounds so much better, doesn't it?) about things, and had this hack in
place where we would extend the stack vma in-place without doing the
proper locking.

And it worked fine.  We just needed to change vm_start (or, in the case
of grow-up stacks, vm_end) and together with some special ad-hoc locking
using the anon_vma lock and the mm-&gt;page_table_lock, it all was fairly
straightforward.

That is, it was all fine until Ruihan Li pointed out that now that the
vma layout uses the maple tree code, we *really* don't just change
vm_start and vm_end any more, and the locking really is broken.  Oops.

It's not actually all _that_ horrible to fix this once and for all, and
do proper locking, but it's a bit painful.  We have basically three
different cases of stack expansion, and they all work just a bit
differently:

 - the common and obvious case is the page fault handling. It's actually
   fairly simple and straightforward, except for the fact that we have
   something like 24 different versions of it, and you end up in a maze
   of twisty little passages, all alike.

 - the simplest case is the execve() code that creates a new stack.
   There are no real locking concerns because it's all in a private new
   VM that hasn't been exposed to anybody, but lockdep still can end up
   unhappy if you get it wrong.

 - and finally, we have GUP and page pinning, which shouldn't really be
   expanding the stack in the first place, but in addition to execve()
   we also use it for ptrace(). And debuggers do want to possibly access
   memory under the stack pointer and thus need to be able to expand the
   stack as a special case.

None of these cases are exactly complicated, but the page fault case in
particular is just repeated slightly differently many many times.  And
ia64 in particular has a fairly complicated situation where you can have
both a regular grow-down stack _and_ a special grow-up stack for the
register backing store.

So to make this slightly more manageable, the bulk of this series is to
first create a helper function for the most common page fault case, and
convert all the straightforward architectures to it.

Thus the new 'lock_mm_and_find_vma()' helper function, which ends up
being used by x86, arm, powerpc, mips, riscv, alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa.  So we not only convert more
than half the architectures, we now have more shared code and avoid some
of those twisty little passages.

And largely due to this common helper function, the full diffstat of
this series ends up deleting more lines than it adds.

That still leaves eight architectures (ia64, m68k, microblaze, openrisc,
parisc, s390, sparc64 and um) that end up doing 'expand_stack()'
manually because they are doing something slightly different from the
normal pattern.  Along with the couple of special cases in execve() and
GUP.

So there's a couple of patches that first create 'locked' helper
versions of the stack expansion functions, so that there's a obvious
path forward in the conversion.  The execve() case is then actually
pretty simple, and is a nice cleanup from our old "grow-up stackls are
special, because at execve time even they grow down".

The #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP in that code just goes away, because
it's just more straightforward to write out the stack expansion there
manually, instead od having get_user_pages_remote() do it for us in some
situations but not others and have to worry about locking rules for GUP.

And the final step is then to just convert the remaining odd cases to a
new world order where 'expand_stack()' is called with the mmap_lock held
for reading, but where it might drop it and upgrade it to a write, only
to return with it held for reading (in the success case) or with it
completely dropped (in the failure case).

In the process, we remove all the stack expansion from GUP (where
dropping the lock wouldn't be ok without special rules anyway), and add
it in manually to __access_remote_vm() for ptrace().

Thanks to Adrian Glaubitz and Frank Scheiner who tested the ia64 cases.
Everything else here felt pretty straightforward, but the ia64 rules for
stack expansion are really quite odd and very different from everything
else.  Also thanks to Vegard Nossum who caught me getting one of those
odd conditions entirely the wrong way around.

Anyway, I think I want to actually move all the stack expansion code to
a whole new file of its own, rather than have it split up between
mm/mmap.c and mm/memory.c, but since this will have to be backported to
the initial maple tree vma introduction anyway, I tried to keep the
patches _fairly_ minimal.

Also, while I don't think it's valid to expand the stack from GUP, the
final patch in here is a "warn if some crazy GUP user wants to try to
expand the stack" patch.  That one will be reverted before the final
release, but it's left to catch any odd cases during the merge window
and release candidates.

Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yosry Ahmed brought back some cgroup v1 stats in OOM logs

 - Yosry has also eliminated cgroup's atomic rstat flushing

 - Nhat Pham adds the new cachestat() syscall. It provides userspace
   with the ability to query pagecache status - a similar concept to
   mincore() but more powerful and with improved usability

 - Mel Gorman provides more optimizations for compaction, reducing the
   prevalence of page rescanning

 - Lorenzo Stoakes has done some maintanance work on the
   get_user_pages() interface

 - Liam Howlett continues with cleanups and maintenance work to the
   maple tree code. Peng Zhang also does some work on maple tree

 - Johannes Weiner has done some cleanup work on the compaction code

 - David Hildenbrand has contributed additional selftests for
   get_user_pages()

 - Thomas Gleixner has contributed some maintenance and optimization
   work for the vmalloc code

 - Baolin Wang has provided some compaction cleanups,

 - SeongJae Park continues maintenance work on the DAMON code

 - Huang Ying has done some maintenance on the swap code's usage of
   device refcounting

 - Christoph Hellwig has some cleanups for the filemap/directio code

 - Ryan Roberts provides two patch series which yield some
   rationalization of the kernel's access to pte entries - use the
   provided APIs rather than open-coding accesses

 - Lorenzo Stoakes has some fixes to the interaction between pagecache
   and directio access to file mappings

 - John Hubbard has a series of fixes to the MM selftesting code

 - ZhangPeng continues the folio conversion campaign

 - Hugh Dickins has been working on the pagetable handling code, mainly
   with a view to reducing the load on the mmap_lock

 - Catalin Marinas has reduced the arm64 kmalloc() minimum alignment
   from 128 to 8

 - Domenico Cerasuolo has improved the zswap reclaim mechanism by
   reorganizing the LRU management

 - Matthew Wilcox provides some fixups to make gfs2 work better with the
   buffer_head code

 - Vishal Moola also has done some folio conversion work

 - Matthew Wilcox has removed the remnants of the pagevec code - their
   functionality is migrated over to struct folio_batch

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double()

   The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically &amp; functionally the
   same as cmpxchg_double(), but with a saner interface.

   Instead of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves
   layout details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,
   fragility &amp; bugs, use a natural 3-parameter interface with u128
   types.

 - Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add kerneldoc comments
   for all of the generic atomic{,64,_long}_t operations.

   The generated definitions are much cleaner now, and come with
   documentation.

 - Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering when
   taking multiple locks of the same type.

   This gets rid of one use of lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the
   bcache code.

 - Fix raw_cpu_generic_try_cmpxchg() bug due to an unintended variable
   shadowing generating garbage code on Clang on certain ARM builds.

Pull x86 boot updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Initialize FPU late.

  Right now FPU is initialized very early during boot. There is no real
  requirement to do so. The only requirement is to have it done before
  alternatives are patched.

  That's done in check_bugs() which does way more than what the function
  name suggests.

  So first rename check_bugs() to arch_cpu_finalize_init() which makes
  it clear what this is about.

  Move the invocation of arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier in
  start_kernel() as it has to be done before fork_init() which needs to
  know the FPU register buffer size.

  With those prerequisites the FPU initialization can be moved into
  arch_cpu_finalize_init(), which removes it from the early and fragile
  part of the x86 bringup"
