Pull integrity subsystem updates from Mimi Zohar:

 - Limit the allowed hash algorithms when writing security.ima xattrs or
   verifying them, based on the IMA policy and the configured hash
   algorithms.

 - Return the calculated "critical data" measurement hash and size to
   avoid code duplication. (Preparatory change for a proposed LSM.)

 - and a single patch to address a compiler warning.

* tag 'integrity-v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/zohar/linux-integrity:
  IMA: reject unknown hash algorithms in ima_get_hash_algo
  IMA: prevent SETXATTR_CHECK policy rules with unavailable algorithms
  IMA: introduce a new policy option func=SETXATTR_CHECK
  IMA: add a policy option to restrict xattr hash algorithms on appraisal
  IMA: add support to restrict the hash algorithms used for file appraisal
  IMA: block writes of the security.ima xattr with unsupported algorithms
  IMA: remove the dependency on CRYPTO_MD5
  ima: Add digest and digest_len params to the functions to measure a buffer
  ima: Return int in the functions to measure a buffer
  ima: Introduce ima_get_current_hash_algo()

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion. These changes
   are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must
   validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM
   changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via
   IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are
   valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime).

 - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to
   percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc().

 - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt.

 - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess
   how the writecache is performing.

 - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function.

<content type='text'>
The functions get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() have been
deprecated during the CPU hotplug rework. They map directly to
cpus_read_lock() and cpus_read_unlock().

Replace deprecated CPU-hotplug functions with the official version.
The behavior remains unchanged.

We can't split write behind bio with more than BIO_MAX_VECS sectors,
otherwise the below call trace was triggered because we could allocate
oversized write behind bio later.

Move the dax_read_lock/dax_read_unlock pair from the callers into
dax_supported to make it a little easier to use.

There is no point in trying to finding the dax device if the DAX flag is
not set on the queue as none of the users of the device mapper exported
block devices could make use of the DAX capability.

<title>md/raid10: Remove unnecessary rcu_dereference in raid10_handle_discard</title>

We are seeing the following warning in raid10_handle_discard.
[  695.110751] =============================
[  695.131439] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
[  695.151389] 4.18.0-319.el8.x86_64+debug #1 Not tainted
[  695.174413] -----------------------------
[  695.192603] drivers/md/raid10.c:1776 suspicious
rcu_dereference_check() usage!
[  695.225107] other info that might help us debug this:
[  695.260940] rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
[  695.290157] no locks held by mkfs.xfs/10186.

In the first loop of function raid10_handle_discard. It already
determines which disk need to handle discard request and add the
rdev reference count rdev-&gt;nr_pending. So the conf-&gt;mirrors will
not change until all bios come back from underlayer disks. It
doesn't need to use rcu_dereference to get rdev.
