There're:

  - 8 archs (arc, arm64, include, mips, powerpc, s390, sh, x86) that
  support pte_pgprot().

  - 2 archs (x86, sparc) that support pmd_pgprot().

  - 1 arch (x86) that support pud_pgprot().

Always define them to be used in generic code, and then we don't need to
fiddle with "#ifdef"s when doing so.

<title>arch, mm: move definition of node_data to generic code</title>

Every architecture that supports NUMA defines node_data in the same way:

	struct pglist_data *node_data[MAX_NUMNODES];

No reason to keep multiple copies of this definition and its forward
declarations, especially when such forward declaration is the only thing
in include/asm/mmzone.h for many architectures.

Add definition and declaration of node_data to generic code and drop
architecture-specific versions.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.

  Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
  which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
  in here are:

   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases
     to get here, finally!)

   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.

     It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type
     of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust
     drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which
     others can start their work.

     There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of
     rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step.

   - driver core const api changes.

     This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for
     some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook
     out.

     This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe,
     as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to
     put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet,
     but are getting closer.

   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection

   - arch_topology minor changes

   - other minor driver core cleanups

  All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
  reported problems"

Remove the unused cif_stack argument and add a protype in oplib_64.h
Commit ef3e035c3a9b ("sparc64: Fix register corruption in top-most
kernel stack frame during boot.") removed the cif_stack argument to
prom_cif init in the declaration at the caller site and the usage of it
within prom_cif_init, but not in the function signature of the function
itself.

This also fixes the following warning:
arch/sparc/prom/p1275.c:52:6: warning: no previous prototype for ‘prom_cif_init’

Use jumps instead of branches when jumping from one section to another
to avoid branches to addresses further away than 22 bit offsets can
handle that results in errors such as

arch/sparc/kernel/signal_32.o:(.fixup+0x0): relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_WDISP22 against `.text'

This is the same approach that was taken for sparc64 in commit
52eb053b7191 ("[SPARC64]: Fix linkage of enormous kernels.")

<title>clone3: drop __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 macro</title>

When clone3() was introduced, it was not obvious how each architecture
deals with setting up the stack and keeping the register contents in
a fork()-like system call, so this was left for the architecture
maintainers to implement, with __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 defined by those
that already implement it.

Five years later, we still have a few architectures left that are missing
clone3(), and the macro keeps getting in the way as it's fundamentally
different from all the other __ARCH_WANT_SYS_* macros that are meant
to provide backwards-compatibility with applications using older
syscalls that are no longer provided by default.

Address this by reversing the polarity of the macro, adding an
__ARCH_BROKEN_SYS_CLONE3 macro to all architectures that don't
already provide the syscall, and remove __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3
from all the other ones.

<title>driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const *</title>

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *.  This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.

Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly.  This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.

For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.
