Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Introduce local{,64}_try_cmpxchg() - a slightly more optimal
   primitive, which will be used in perf events ring-buffer code

 - Simplify/modify rwsems on PREEMPT_RT, to address writer starvation

 - Misc cleanups/fixes

 - Remove diagnostics and adjust config for CSD lock diagnostics

   permitting userspace to wr-protect anon memory unpopulated ptes.

 - Kirill Shutemov has changed MAX_ORDER's meaning to be inclusive
   rather than exclusive, and has fixed a bunch of errors which were
   caused by its unintuitive meaning.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "Commit volume in documentation is relatively low this time, but there
  is still a fair amount going on, including:

   - Reorganize the architecture-specific documentation under
     Documentation/arch

     This makes the structure match the source directory and helps to
     clean up the mess that is the top-level Documentation directory a
     bit. This work creates the new directory and moves x86 and most of
     the less-active architectures there.

     The current plan is to move the rest of the architectures in 6.5,
     with the patches going through the appropriate subsystem trees.

   - Some more Spanish translations and maintenance of the Italian
     translation

   - A new "Kernel contribution maturity model" document from Ted

   - A new tutorial on quickly building a trimmed kernel from Thorsten

  Plus the usual set of updates and fixes"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "Commit volume in documentation is relatively low this time, but there
  is still a fair amount going on, including:

   - Reorganize the architecture-specific documentation under
     Documentation/arch

     This makes the structure match the source directory and helps to
     clean up the mess that is the top-level Documentation directory a
     bit. This work creates the new directory and moves x86 and most of
     the less-active architectures there.

     The current plan is to move the rest of the architectures in 6.5,
     with the patches going through the appropriate subsystem trees.

   - Some more Spanish translations and maintenance of the Italian
     translation

   - A new "Kernel contribution maturity model" document from Ted

   - A new tutorial on quickly building a trimmed kernel from Thorsten

  Plus the usual set of updates and fixes"

The prompt and help text of ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER are not even close to
describe this configuration option.

Update both to actually describe what this option does.

MAX_ORDER currently defined as number of orders page allocator supports:
user can ask buddy allocator for page order between 0 and MAX_ORDER-1.

This definition is counter-intuitive and lead to number of bugs all over
the kernel.

Change the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive: the range of orders
user can ask from buddy allocator is 0..MAX_ORDER now.

Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/
as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making
the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy.  Move
Documentation/xtensa into arch/ and fix all in-tree references.

To be able to trace invocations of smp_send_reschedule(), rename the
arch-specific definitions of it to arch_smp_send_reschedule() and wrap it
into an smp_send_reschedule() that contains a tracepoint.

Changes to include the declaration of the tracepoint were driven by the
following coccinelle script:

  @func_use@
  @@
  smp_send_reschedule(...);

  @include@
  @@
  #include &lt;trace/events/ipi.h&gt;

  @no_include depends on func_use &amp;&amp; !include@
