Pull networking fixes from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Lots of fixes, double the count even for the 'new normal'. Largely due
  to my time off followed by a networking conference which distracted
  most maintainers (less so the AI generators).

  Including fixes from Bluetooth and WiFi.

  Current release - regressions:

   - wifi: mt76: fix MAC address for non OF pcie cards

  Current release - new code bugs:

   - mptcp: fix BUILD_BUG_ON on legacy ARM config

   - wifi: cfg80211: guard optional PMSR nominal time

  Previous releases - regressions:

   - qrtr: ns: raise node count limit to 512, we arbitrarily picked
     256 as a limit, turns out it was too low for real world deployments

   - vhost-net: fix TX stall when vhost owns virtio-net header

   - eth: amd-xgbe: fix MAC_AUTO_SW handling in CL37 AN

   - wifi: ath12k: fix low MLO RX throughput on WCN7850

  Previous releases - always broken:

   - number of random AI fixes for SCTP, RDS and TIPC protocols

   - more AI-looking fixes for WiFi drivers

   - number of fixes for missing pointer reloading after skb pull

   - reject BPF redirect use from qdisc qevent block

   - tcp: initialize standalone TCP-AO response padding

   - vsock/virtio: collapse receive queue under memory pressure to avoid
     client OOMing the host with tiny messages

   - ipv4: icmp: fill flow parameters in icmp_route_lookup decoy lookup,
     make sure the ICMP response routing follows the routing policy

   - gro: fix double aggregation of flush-marked skbs

   - ovpn: fix various refcount bugs

   - tls: device: push pending open record on splice EOF

   - eth: mlx5:
      - use sender devcom for MPV master-up
      - fix MCIA register buffer overflow on 32 dword reads"

Heiko Carstens says:

===================
This is supposed to improve s390 idle time accounting, and brings it
back to the state it was before arch_cpu_idle_time() was removed from
s390 [3].

In result all cpu time accounting is done by the s390 architecture backend
again, instead of having a mix of architecure specific and common code
accounting (common code: idle, s390 architecture: everything else).

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:

 - Use CIO device online variable instead of the internal FSM state to
   determine device availability during purge operations

 - Remove extra check of task_stack_page() because try_get_task_stack()
   already takes care of that when reading /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/wchan

 - Allow user-space to use the new SCLP action qualifier 4 for to
   provide NVMe SMART log data to the platform.

 - Send AP CHANGE uevents on successful bind and successful association
   to notify user-space about SE operations on AP queue devices

 - Add an s390dbf kernel parameter to configure debug log levels and
   area sizes during early boot

 - On arm64 the empty zero page is going to be mapped read-only. Do the
   same for s390 with an explicit set_memory_ro() call

 - Improve s390-specific bcr_serialize() and cpu_relax() implementations

 - Remove all unused variables to avoid allmodconfig W=1 build fails
   with latest clang-23

 - Cleanup default Kconfig values for s390 selftests

 - Add a s390-tod trace clock to allow comparing trace timestamps
   between different systems or virtual machines on s390

 - Remove the s390 implementation of strlcat() in favor of the generic
   variant

 - Make consistent the calling order between
   page_table_check_pte_clear() and secure page conversion across all
   code paths

 - Rearrange some fields within AP and zcrypt structs to reduce memory
   consumption and unused holes

 - Shorten GR_NUM and VX_NUM macros and move them to a separate header

 - Replace __get_free_page() with kmalloc() in few sources

 - Introduce an infrastructure for more efficient this_cpu operations.
   Eliminate conditional branches when PREEMPT_NONE is removed

 - Enable Rust support

 - Use z10 as minimum architecture level, similar to the boot code, to
   enforce a defined architecture level set

 - Improve and convert various mem*() helper functions to C. For that
   add .noinstr.text section to avoid orphaned warnings from the linker

 - Fix the function pointer type in __ret_from_fork() to correct the
   indirect call to match kernel thread return type of int

 - Revert support for DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS to avoid an endless exception
   loop on read from donated Ultravisor pages at unaligned addresses

   variant

 - Make consistent the calling order between
   page_table_check_pte_clear() and secure page conversion across all
   code paths

 - Rearrange some fields within AP and zcrypt structs to reduce memory
   consumption and unused holes

 - Shorten GR_NUM and VX_NUM macros and move them to a separate header

 - Replace __get_free_page() with kmalloc() in few sources

 - Introduce an infrastructure for more efficient this_cpu operations.
   Eliminate conditional branches when PREEMPT_NONE is removed

 - Enable Rust support

 - Use z10 as minimum architecture level, similar to the boot code, to
   enforce a defined architecture level set

 - Improve and convert various mem*() helper functions to C. For that
   add .noinstr.text section to avoid orphaned warnings from the linker

 - Fix the function pointer type in __ret_from_fork() to correct the
   indirect call to match kernel thread return type of int

 - Revert support for DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS to avoid an endless exception
   loop on read from donated Ultravisor pages at unaligned addresses

Remove the s390 specific idle_time_us and idle_count per cpu sysfs
files. They do not provide any additional value. The risk that there
are existing applications which rely on these architecture specific
files should be very low.

However if it turns out such applications exist, this can be easily
reverted.

<title>s390/idle: Provide arch specific kcpustat_field_idle()/kcpustat_field_iowait()</title>

The former s390 specific arch_cpu_idle_time() implementation was
removed, since its implementation was racy and reported idle time
could go backwards [1].

However this removal was not necessary, since independently of the s390
architecture specific races there exists the iowait counter update race,
which can also lead to reported idle time going backwards [2].

With Frederic Weisbecker's recent cpu idle time accounting refactoring
kernel_cpustat got a sequence counter. Use this to implement s390 specific
variants of kcpustat_field_idle() and kcpustat_field_iowait(). This is
logically a revert of [1] and moves cpu idle time accounting back into s390
architecture code, which is also more precise than the dyntick idle time
accounting by nohz/scheduler.

For comparing cross cpu time stamps it is necessary to use the stcke
instead of the stckf instruction in irq entry path. Furthermore this
open-codes a sequence lock in assembler and C code, which is required to
update the irq entry time stamp to the per cpu idle_data structure in a
race free manner.

[1] commit be76ea614460 ("s390/idle: remove arch_cpu_idle_time() and corresponding code")
[2] commit ead70b752373 ("timers/nohz: Add a comment about broken iowait counter update race")
