Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:

 - Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it,
   there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection
   sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an
   interval:

       get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil)
       get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX]
       get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil]

   Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of
   prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in
   improvements throughout the tree.

   I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused
   prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new
   use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next,
   there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions
   that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final
   conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the
   second week.

   This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout.

 - More consistent use of get_random_canary().

 - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and
   simplification in configuration.

 - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and
   wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works
   in all relevant contexts.

 - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI
   variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is
   initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to
   prevent accidental leakage.

   These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the
   EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of
   EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full
   functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter.

 - Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for
   an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key,
   replacing an sleep loop wart.

 - The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c
   input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes
   going through helpers better suited for other cases.

 - The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork
   handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't
   used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy.

   But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed
   in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy
   gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call
   to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter,
   without the absent latent entropy variable.

 - The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand
   when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the
   CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to
   do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs
   more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term
   transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming
   vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2).

 - The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different
   CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies
   and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter
   when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the
   main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer
   firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache
   line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will
   cause latencies.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:

 - Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it,
   there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection
   sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an
   interval:

       get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil)
       get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX]
       get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil]

   Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of
   prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in
   improvements throughout the tree.

   I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused
   prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new
   use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next,
   there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions
   that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final
   conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the
   second week.

   This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout.

 - More consistent use of get_random_canary().

 - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and
   simplification in configuration.

 - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and
   wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works
   in all relevant contexts.

 - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI
   variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is
   initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to
   prevent accidental leakage.

   These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the

<title>bnxt: Use generic HBH removal helper in tx path</title>

Eric Dumazet implemented Big TCP that allowed bigger TSO/GRO packet sizes
for IPv6 traffic. See patch series:
'commit 89527be8d8d6 ("net: add IFLA_TSO_{MAX_SIZE|SEGS} attributes")'

This reduces the number of packets traversing the networking stack and
should usually improves performance. However, it also inserts a
temporary Hop-by-hop IPv6 extension header.

Using the HBH header removal method in the previous patch, the extra header
be removed in bnxt drivers to allow it to send big TCP packets (bigger
TSO packets) as well.

Tested:
Compiled locally

To further test functional correctness, update the GSO/GRO limit on the
physical NIC:

ip link set eth0 gso_max_size 181000
ip link set eth0 gro_max_size 181000

Note that if there are bonding or ipvan devices on top of the physical
NIC, their GSO sizes need to be updated as well.

Then, IPv6/TCP packets with sizes larger than 64k can be observed.

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in __build_skb_around+0x235/0x340 net/core/skbuff.c:294
  Write of size 32 at addr ffff88802aa172c0 by task syz-executor413/5295

For bpf_prog_test_run_skb(), which uses a kmalloc()ed buffer passed to
build_skb().

When build_skb() is passed a frag_size of 0, it means the buffer came
from kmalloc. In these cases, ksize() is used to find its actual size,
but since the allocation may not have been made to that size, actually
perform the krealloc() call so that all the associated buffer size
checking will be correctly notified (and use the "new" pointer so that
compiler hinting works correctly). Split this logic out into a new
interface, slab_build_skb(), but leave the original 0 checking for now
to catch any stragglers.

The driver name is available in device_driver::name. Right now,
drivers still have to report this piece of information themselves in
their devlink_ops::info_get callback function.

In order to factorize code, make devlink_nl_info_fill() add the driver
name attribute.

Now that the core sets the driver name attribute, drivers are not
supposed to call devlink_info_driver_name_put() anymore. Remove
devlink_info_driver_name_put() and clean-up all the drivers using this
function in their callback.

commit 8d820bc9d12b ("net: broadcom: Fix BCMGENET Kconfig") fixes the build
that contain 99addbe31f55 ("net: broadcom: Select BROADCOM_PHY for BCMGENET")
and enable BCMGENET=y but PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL=m, which otherwise
leads to a link failure. However this may trigger a runtime failure.

Fix the original issue by propagating the PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL dependency
of BROADCOM_PHY down to BCMGENET.
