xenboot_write_console() is dealing with these quite fine so I don't see
why xenboot_console_setup() would return -ENOENT in this case.

Adjust documentation accordingly.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Optionally, provide an index of possible printk messages via
   &lt;debugfs&gt;/printk/index/. It can be used when monitoring important
   kernel messages on a farm of various hosts. The monitor has to be
   updated when some messages has changed or are not longer available by
   a newly deployed kernel.

 - Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter. It allows to
   generate crash dump even with slow consoles in a reasonable time
   frame.

 - Remove printk_safe buffers. The messages are always stored directly
   to the main logbuffer, even in NMI or recursive context. Also it
   allows to serialize syslog operations by a mutex instead of a spin
   lock.

 - Misc clean up and build fixes.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for 32-bit tasks on asymmetric AArch32 systems (on top of the
   scheduler changes merged via the tip tree).

 - More entry.S clean-ups and conversion to C.

 - MTE updates: allow a preferred tag checking mode to be set per CPU
   (the overhead of synchronous mode is smaller for some CPUs than
   others); optimisations for kernel entry/exit path; optionally disable
   MTE on the kernel command line.

 - Kselftest improvements for SVE and signal handling, PtrAuth.

 - Fix unlikely race where a TLBI could use stale ASID on an ASID
   roll-over (found by inspection).

 - Miscellaneous fixes: disable trapping of PMSNEVFR_EL1 to higher
   exception levels; drop unnecessary sigdelsetmask() call in the
   signal32 handling; remove BUG_ON when failing to allocate SVE state
   (just signal the process); SYM_CODE annotations.

 - Other trivial clean-ups: use macros instead of magic numbers, remove
   redundant returns, typos.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core:

   - Enable memcg accounting for various networking objects.

  BPF:

   - Introduce bpf timers.

   - Add perf link and opaque bpf_cookie which the program can read out
     again, to be used in libbpf-based USDT library.

   - Add bpf_task_pt_regs() helper to access user space pt_regs in
     kprobes, to help user space stack unwinding.

   - Add support for UNIX sockets for BPF sockmap.

   - Extend BPF iterator support for UNIX domain sockets.

   - Allow BPF TCP congestion control progs and bpf iterators to call
     bpf_setsockopt(), e.g. to switch to another congestion control
     algorithm.

  Protocols:

   - Support IOAM Pre-allocated Trace with IPv6.

   - Support Management Component Transport Protocol.

   - bridge: multicast: add vlan support.
