Pull sched_ext fixes from Tejun Heo:

 - Fix SCX_KICK_WAIT deadlock where multiple CPUs waiting for each other
   in hardirq context form a cycle. Move the wait to a balance callback
   which can drop the rq lock and process IPIs.

 - Fix inconsistent NUMA node lookup in scx_select_cpu_dfl() where
   the waker_node used cpu_to_node() while prev_cpu used
   scx_cpu_node_if_enabled(), leading to undefined behavior when
   per-node idle tracking is disabled.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:

 - Fix cgroup rmdir racing with dying tasks.

   Deferred task cgroup unlink introduced a window where cgroup.procs
   is empty but the cgroup is still populated, causing rmdir to fail
   with -EBUSY and selftest failures.

   Make rmdir wait for dying tasks to fully leave and fix selftests to
   not depend on synchronous populated updates.

 - Fix cpuset v1 task migration failure from empty cpusets under strict
   security policies.

   When CPU hotplug removes the last CPU from a v1 cpuset, tasks must be
   migrated to an ancestor without a security_task_setscheduler() check
   that would block the migration.

Add a test that creates a 3-CPU kick_wait cycle (A-&gt;B-&gt;C-&gt;A). A BPF
scheduler kicks the next CPU in the ring with SCX_KICK_WAIT on every
enqueue while userspace workers generate continuous scheduling churn via
sched_yield(). Without the preceding fix, this hangs the machine within seconds.

rtla supports building without libbpf. However, BPF actions
patchset [1] adds an include of bpf/libbpf.h into timerlat_bpf.h,
which breaks build on systems that don't have libbpf headers
installed.

This is a leftover from a draft version of the patchset where
timerlat_bpf_set_action() (which takes a struct bpf_program * argument)
was defined in the header. timerlat_bpf.c already includes bpf/libbpf.h
via timerlat.skel.h when libbpf is present.

Remove the redundant include to fix build on systems without libbpf
headers.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:

 - Fix netfs_limit_iter() hitting BUG() when an ITER_KVEC iterator
   reaches it via core dump writes to 9P filesystems. Add ITER_KVEC
   handling following the same pattern as the existing ITER_BVEC code.

 - Fix a NULL pointer dereference in the netfs unbuffered write retry
   path when the filesystem (e.g., 9P) doesn't set the prepare_write
   operation.

 - Clear I_DIRTY_TIME in sync_lazytime for filesystems implementing
  -&gt;sync_lazytime. Without this the flag stays set and may cause
   additional unnecessary calls during inode deactivation.

 - Increase tmpfs size in mount_setattr selftests. A recent commit
   bumped the ext4 image size to 2 GB but didn't adjust the tmpfs
   backing store, so mkfs.ext4 fails with ENOSPC writing metadata.

 - Fix an invalid folio access in iomap when i_blkbits matches the folio
   size but differs from the I/O granularity. The cur_folio pointer
   would not get invalidated and iomap_read_end() would still be called
   on it despite the IO helper owning it.

 - Fix hash_name() docstring.

 - Fix read abandonment during netfs retry where the subreq variable
   used for abandonment could be uninitialized on the first pass or
   point to a deleted subrequest on later passes.

 - Don't block sync for filesystems with no data integrity guarantees.
   Add a SB_I_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY superblock flag replacing the per-inode
   AS_NO_DATA_INTEGRITY mapping flag so sync kicks off writeback but
   doesn't wait for flusher threads. This fixes a suspend-to-RAM hang on
   fuse-overlayfs where the flusher thread blocks when the fuse daemon
   is frozen.

 - Fix a lockdep splat in iomap when reads fail. iomap_read_end_io()
   invokes fserror_report() which calls igrab() taking i_lock in hardirq
   context while i_lock is normally held with interrupts enabled. Kick
   failed read handling to a workqueue.

 - Remove the redundant netfs_io_stream::front member and use
   stream-&gt;subrequests.next instead, fixing a potential issue in the
   direct write code path.

Pull networking fixes from Paolo Abeni:
 "Including fixes from Bluetooth, CAN, IPsec and Netfilter.

  Notably, this includes the fix for the Bluetooth regression that you
  were notified about. I'm not aware of any other pending regressions.

  Current release - regressions:

    - bluetooth:
       - fix stack-out-of-bounds read in l2cap_ecred_conn_req
       - fix regressions caused by reusing ident

    - netfilter: revisit array resize logic

    - eth: ice: set max queues in alloc_etherdev_mqs()

  Previous releases - regressions:

    - core: correctly handle tunneled traffic on IPV6_CSUM GSO fallback

    - bluetooth:
       - fix dangling pointer on mgmt_add_adv_patterns_monitor_complete
       - fix deadlock in l2cap_conn_del()

    - sched: codel: fix stale state for empty flows in fq_codel

    - ipv6: remove permanent routes from tb6_gc_hlist when all exceptions expire.

    - xfrm: fix skb_put() panic on non-linear skb during reassembly

    - openvswitch:
       - avoid releasing netdev before teardown completes
       - validate MPLS set/set_masked payload length

    - eth: iavf: fix out-of-bounds writes in iavf_get_ethtool_stats()

  Previous releases - always broken:

    - bluetooth: fix null-ptr-deref on l2cap_sock_ready_cb

    - udp: fix wildcard bind conflict check when using hash2

    - netfilter: fix use of uninitialized rtp_addr in process_sdp

    - tls: Purge async_hold in tls_decrypt_async_wait()

    - xfrm:
       - prevent policy_hthresh.work from racing with netns teardown
       - fix skb leak with espintcp and async crypto

    - smc: fix double-free of smc_spd_priv when tee() duplicates splice pipe buffer

    - can:
       - add missing error handling to call can_ctrlmode_changelink()
       - fix OOB heap access in cgw_csum_crc8_rel()

    - eth:
       - mana: fix use-after-free in add_adev() error path
       - virtio-net: fix for VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_HDRLEN
       - bcmasp: fix double free of WoL irq"

<title>selftests/cgroup: Don't require synchronous populated update on task exit</title>

test_cgcore_populated (test_core) and test_cgkill_{simple,tree,forkbomb}
(test_kill) check cgroup.events "populated 0" immediately after reaping
child tasks with waitpid(). This used to work because cgroup_task_exit() in
do_exit() unlinked tasks from css_sets before exit_notify() woke up
waitpid().

d245698d727a ("cgroup: Defer task cgroup unlink until after the task is done
switching out") moved the unlink to cgroup_task_dead() in
finish_task_switch(), which runs after exit_notify(). The populated counter
is now decremented after the parent's waitpid() can return, so there is no
longer a synchronous ordering guarantee. On PREEMPT_RT, where
cgroup_task_dead() is further deferred through lazy irq_work, the race
window is even larger.

The synchronous populated transition was never part of the cgroup interface
contract - it was an implementation artifact. Use cg_read_strcmp_wait() which
retries for up to 1 second, matching what these tests actually need to
verify: that the cgroup eventually becomes unpopulated after all tasks exit.
