Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
 "This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
  that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
  implied by flags.

  The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
  so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
  being used.  The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
  VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
  from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.

  The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e088546522
  ("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
  which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
  with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
  do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
  for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
  dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
  situation where this assumption did not hold.

  See

      https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&amp;m=147585445805166

  for the patch proposal"

Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.

[ This branch was rebased recently to add a few more acked-by's and
  reviewed-by's ]

* gup_flag-cleanups:
  mm: replace access_process_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
  mm: replace access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags

This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_user_pages_remote() and
replaces them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in
callers as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and
hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.

Pull rdma qedr RoCE driver from Doug Ledford:
 "Early on in the merge window I mentioned I had a backlog of new
  drivers waiting to be reviewed and that, in addition to the hns-roce
  driver, I wanted to get possible a couple more reviewed. I ended up
  only having the time to complete one of the additional drivers.

  During Dave Miller's pull request this go around, there were a series
  of 9 patches to the QLogic qed net driver that add basic support for a
  paired RoCE driver. That support is currently not functional because
  it is missing the matching RoCE driver in the RDMA subsystem. I
  managed to finish that review. However, because it goes against part
  of Dave's net pull, and a part that was accepted a day or two after
  the merge window opened, to apply cleanly it has to be applied to
  either the tip of Dave's net branch, or as I did in this case, I just
  applied it to your master after you had taken Dave's pull request."

 "This merge window was the first where Huawei had to try and coordinate
  their patches between their net driver and their new roce driver
  (similar to mlx4 and mlx5).

  They didn't do horribly, but there were some issues (and we knew that
  because they simply didn't know what to do in the beginning). As a
  result, I had a set of patches that depended on some patches that
  normally would have come to you via Dave's tree. Those patches have
  been on netdev@ for a while, so I got Dave to give me his approval to
  send them to you. As such, the other 29 patches I had behind them are
  also now ready to go.

  This catches the hns and hns-roce drivers up to current, and for
  future patches we are working with them to get them up to speed on how
  to do joint driver development so that they don't have these sorts of
  cross tree dependency issues again. BTW, Dave gave me permission to
  add his Acked-by: to the patches against the net tree, but I've had
  this branch through 0day (but not linux-next since it was off by
  itself) and I didn't want to rebase the series just to add Dave's ack
  for the 8 patches in the net area.

  Updates to the hns drivers:

   - Small patch set for hns net driver that the roce patches depend on

   - Various fixes to the hns-roce driver

   - Add connection manager support to the hns-roce driver"
