Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Prevent a device from being probed before device_add() has finished
   initializing it; gate probe with a "ready_to_probe" device flag to
   avoid races with concurrent driver_register() calls

 - Fix a kernel-doc warning for DEV_FLAG_COUNT introduced by the above

 - Return -ENOTCONN from software_node_get_reference_args() when a
   referenced software node is known but not yet registered, allowing
   callers to defer probe

 - In sysfs_group_attrs_change_owner(), also check is_visible_const();
   missed when the const variant was introduced

Pull more MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "Eliminate Dying Memory Cgroup" (Qi Zheng and Muchun Song)

   Address the longstanding "dying memcg problem". A situation wherein a

   period pointlessly consuming memory

 - "fix unexpected type conversions and potential overflows" (Qi Zheng)

   Fix a couple of potential 32-bit/64-bit issues which were identified
   during review of the "Eliminate Dying Memory Cgroup" series

 - "kho: history: track previous kernel version and kexec boot count"
   (Breno Leitao)

   Use Kexec Handover (KHO) to pass the previous kernel's version string
   and the number of kexec reboots since the last cold boot to the next
   kernel, and print it at boot time

 - "liveupdate: prevent double preservation" (Pasha Tatashin)

   Teach LUO to avoid managing the same file across different active
   sessions

 - "liveupdate: Fix module unloading and unregister API" (Pasha
   Tatashin)

   Address an issue with how LUO handles module reference counting and
   unregistration during module unloading

 - "zswap pool per-CPU acomp_ctx simplifications" (Kanchana Sridhar)

   Simplify and clean up the zswap crypto compression handling and
   improve the lifecycle management of zswap pool's per-CPU acomp_ctx
   resources

 - "mm/damon/core: fix damon_call()/damos_walk() vs kdmond exit race"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Address unlikely but possible leaks and deadlocks in damon_call() and
   damon_walk()

 - "mm/damon/core: validate damos_quota_goal-&gt;nid" (SeongJae Park)

   Fix a couple of root-only wild pointer dereferences

 - "Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon: warn commit_inputs vs other params race"
   (SeongJae Park)

   Update the DAMON documentation to warn operators about potential
   races which can occur if the commit_inputs parameter is altered at
   the wrong time

 - "Minor hmm_test fixes and cleanups" (Alistair Popple)

   Bugfixes and a cleanup for the HMM kernel selftests

 - "Modify memfd_luo code" (Chenghao Duan)

   Cleanups, simplifications and speedups to the memfd_lou code

 - "mm, kvm: allow uffd support in guest_memfd" (Mike Rapoport)

   Support for userfaultfd in guest_memfd

 - "selftests/mm: skip several tests when thp is not available" (Chunyu
   Hu)

   Fix several issues in the selftests code which were causing breakage
   when the tests were run on CONFIG_THP=n kernels

 - "mm/mprotect: micro-optimization work" (Pedro Falcato)

   A couple of nice speedups for mprotect()

 - "MAINTAINERS: update KHO and LIVE UPDATE entries" (Pratyush Yadav)

   Document upcoming changes in the maintenance of KHO, LUO, memfd_luo,
   kexec, crash, kdump and probably other kexec-based things - they are
   being moved out of mm.git and into a new git tree

Commit d8f867fa0825 ("mm/damon: add damon_ctx-&gt;min_sz_region") introduced
a bug that allows unaligned DAMON region address ranges.  Commit
c80f46ac228b ("mm/damon/core: disallow non-power of two min_region_sz")
fixed it, but only for damon_commit_ctx() use case.  Still, DAMON sysfs
interface can emit non-power of two min_region_sz via damon_start().  Fix
the path by adding the is_power_of_2() check on damon_start().

The issue was discovered by sashiko [1].

decay_va_pool_node() can be invoked concurrently from two paths:
__purge_vmap_area_lazy() when pools are being purged, and the shrinker via
vmap_node_shrink_scan().

However, decay_va_pool_node() is not safe to run concurrently, and the
shrinker path currently lacks serialization, leading to races and possible
leaks.

Protect decay_va_pool_node() by taking vmap_purge_lock in the shrinker
path to ensure serialization with purge users.

We can only call filemap_free_folio() if we have a reference to (or hold a
lock on) the mapping.  Otherwise, we've already removed the folio from the
mapping so it no longer pins the mapping and the mapping can be removed,
causing a use-after-free when accessing mapping-&gt;a_ops.

Follow the same pattern as __remove_mapping() and load the free_folio
function pointer before dropping the lock on the mapping.  That lets us
make filemap_free_folio() static as this was the only caller outside
filemap.c.

cgwb_release_workfn() calls css_put(wb-&gt;blkcg_css) and then later accesses
wb-&gt;blkcg_css again via blkcg_unpin_online().  If css_put() drops the last
reference, the blkcg can be freed asynchronously (css_free_rwork_fn -&gt;
blkcg_css_free -&gt; kfree) before blkcg_unpin_online() dereferences the
pointer to access blkcg-&gt;online_pin, resulting in a use-after-free:

** Stack based on commit 66672af7a095 ("Add linux-next specific files

I am seeing this crash sporadically in Meta fleet across multiple kernel
versions.  A full reproducer is available at:
https://github.com/leitao/debug/blob/main/reproducers/repro_blkcg_uaf.sh

(The race window is narrow.  To make it easily reproducible, inject a
msleep(100) between css_put() and blkcg_unpin_online() in
cgwb_release_workfn().  With that delay and a KASAN-enabled kernel, the
reproducer triggers the splat reliably in less than a second.)

Fix this by moving blkcg_unpin_online() before css_put(), so the
cgwb's CSS reference keeps the blkcg alive while blkcg_unpin_online()
accesses it.
