Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller:
 "There is one noteable patch, which allows the parisc kernel to use the
  same MADV_xxx constants as the other architectures going forward. With
  that change only alpha has one entry left (MADV_DONTNEED is 6 vs 4 on
  others) which is different. To prevent an ABI breakage, a wrapper is
  included which translates old MADV values to the new ones, so existing
  userspace isn't affected. Reason for that patch is, that some
  applications wrongly used the standard MADV_xxx values even on some
  non-x86 platforms and as such those programs failed to run correctly
  on parisc (examples are qemu-user, tor browser and boringssl).

  Then the kgdb console and the LED code received some fixes, and some
  0-day warnings are now gone. Finally, the very last compile warning
  which was visible during a kernel build is now fixed too (in the vDSO
  code).

  The majority of the patches are tagged for stable series and in
  summary this patchset is quite small and drops more code than it adds:

Fixes:
   - Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task()
   - Fix kgdb console on serial port
   - Add missing FORCE prerequisites in Makefile
   - Drop PMD_SHIFT from calculation in pgtable.h

  Enhancements:
   - Implement a wrapper to align madvise() MADV_* constants with other
     architectures
   - If machine supports running MPE/XL, show the MPE model string

  Cleanups:
   - Drop duplicate kgdb console code
   - Indenting fixes in setup_cmdline()"

Some (mostly 64-bit machines) machines allow to run MPE/iX and report the MPE
model string via firmware call. Enhance the pdc_model_sysmodel() function to
report that model string.
Note that some 32-bit machines like the B160L wrongly report success for the
firmware call, so include a check to prevent showing wrong info.

<title>parisc: Align parisc MADV_XXX constants with all other architectures</title>

<id>71bdea6f798b425bc0003780b13e3fdecb16a010</id>
<content type='text'>
Adjust some MADV_XXX constants to be in sync what their values are on
all other platforms. There is currently no reason to have an own
numbering on parisc, but it requires workarounds in many userspace
sources (e.g. glibc, qemu, ...) - which are often forgotten and thus
introduce bugs and different behaviour on parisc.

A wrapper avoids an ABI breakage for existing userspace applications by
translating any old values to the new ones, so this change allows us to
move over all programs to the new ABI over time.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - More userfaultfs work from Peter Xu

 - Several convert-to-folios series from Sidhartha Kumar and Huang Ying

 - Some filemap cleanups from Vishal Moola

 - David Hildenbrand added the ability to selftest anon memory COW
   handling

 - Some cpuset simplifications from Liu Shixin

 - Addition of vmalloc tracing support by Uladzislau Rezki

 - Some pagecache folioifications and simplifications from Matthew
   Wilcox

 - A pagemap cleanup from Kefeng Wang: we have VM_ACCESS_FLAGS, so use
   it

 - Miguel Ojeda contributed some cleanups for our use of the
   __no_sanitize_thread__ gcc keyword.

   This series should have been in the non-MM tree, my bad

 - Naoya Horiguchi improved the interaction between memory poisoning and
   memory section removal for huge pages

 - DAMON cleanups and tuneups from SeongJae Park

 - Tony Luck fixed the handling of COW faults against poisoned pages

 - Peter Xu utilized the PTE marker code for handling swapin errors

 - Hugh Dickins reworked compound page mapcount handling, simplifying it
   and making it more efficient

 - Removal of the autonuma savedwrite infrastructure from Nadav Amit and
   David Hildenbrand

 - zram support for multiple compression streams from Sergey Senozhatsky

 - David Hildenbrand reworked the GUP code's R/O long-term pinning so
   that drivers no longer need to use the FOLL_FORCE workaround which
   didn't work very well anyway

 - Mel Gorman altered the page allocator so that local IRQs can remnain
   enabled during per-cpu page allocations

 - Vishal Moola removed the try_to_release_page() wrapper

 - Stefan Roesch added some per-BDI sysfs tunables which are used to
   prevent network block devices from dirtying excessive amounts of
   pagecache

 - David Hildenbrand did some cleanup and repair work on KSM COW
   breaking

 - Nhat Pham and Johannes Weiner have implemented writeback in zswap's
   zsmalloc backend

 - Brian Foster has fixed a longstanding corner-case oddity in
   file[map]_write_and_wait_range()

 - sparse-vmemmap changes for MIPS, LoongArch and NIOS2 from Feiyang
   Chen

 - Shiyang Ruan has done some work on fsdax, to make its reflink mode
   work better under xfstests. Better, but still not perfect

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed the .writepage() method from several
   filesystems. They only need .writepages()

 - Yosry Ahmed wrote a series which fixes the memcg reclaim target
   beancounting

 - David Hildenbrand has fixed some of our MM selftests for 32-bit
   machines

 - Many singleton patches, as usual
