Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
  size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
  sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
  has been doing all this work.

  In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
  support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to
  remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/
  directory only.

  The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as
  those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect
  also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL.

  Let us recap the purpose of this work:

   - this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
     time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array

   - the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
     sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files

  Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to
  see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the
  struct ctl_table.

  Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have
  suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for
  v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for
  further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer
  as he has moved on to other projects and has had no time to help at
  all"

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove sentinel elements ctl_table struct. Special attention was placed in
making sure that an empty directory for fs/verity was created when
CONFIG_FS_VERITY_BUILTIN_SIGNATURES is not defined. In this case we use the
register sysctl call that expects a size.

So far, fanotify returns -ENODEV or -EXDEV when trying to set a mark
on a filesystem with a "weak" fsid, namely, zero fsid (e.g. fuse), or
non-uniform fsid (e.g. btrfs non-root subvol).

When group is watching inodes all from the same filesystem (or subvol),
allow adding inode marks with "weak" fsid, because there is no ambiguity
regarding which filesystem reports the event.

The first mark added to a group determines if this group is single or
multi filesystem, depending on the fsid at the path of the added mark.

If the first mark added has a "strong" fsid, marks with "weak" fsid
cannot be added and vice versa.

If the first mark added has a "weak" fsid, following marks must have
the same "weak" fsid and the same sb as the first mark.

Some filesystems like fuse and nfs have zero or non-unique fsid.
We would like to avoid reporting ambiguous fsid in events, so we need
to avoid marking objects with same fsid and different sb.

To make this easier to enforce, store the fsid in the marks of the group
instead of in the shared conenctor.

Saves a pointer per struct dentry and actually makes the things less
clumsy.  Cleaned the d_walk() and dcache_readdir() a bit by use
of hlist_for_... iterators.

A couple of new helpers - d_first_child() and d_next_sibling(),
to make the expressions less awful.

Pull vfs fanotify fsid updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This work is part of the plan to enable fanotify to serve as a drop-in
  replacement for inotify. While inotify is availabe on all filesystems,
  fanotify currently isn't.

  In order to support fanotify on all filesystems two things are needed:

   (1) all filesystems need to support AT_HANDLE_FID

   (2) all filesystems need to report a non-zero f_fsid

  This contains (1) and allows filesystems to encode non-decodable file
  handlers for fanotify without implementing any exportfs operations by
  encoding a file id of type FILEID_INO64_GEN from i_ino and
  i_generation.

  Filesystems that want to opt out of encoding non-decodable file ids
  for fanotify that don't support NFS export can do so by providing an
  empty export_operations struct.

  This also partially addresses (2) by generating f_fsid for simple
  filesystems as well as freevxfs. Remaining filesystems will be dealt
  with by separate patches.

  Finally, this contains the patch from the current exportfs maintainers
  which moves exportfs under vfs with Chuck, Jeff, and Amir as
  maintainers and vfs.git as tree"

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
  for vfs and individual fses.

  Features:

   - Rename and export helpers that get write access to a mount. They
     are used in overlayfs to get write access to the upper mount.

   - Print the pretty name of the root device on boot failure. This
     helps in scenarios where we would usually only print
     "unknown-block(1,2)".

   - Add an internal SB_I_NOUMASK flag. This is another part in the
     endless POSIX ACL saga in a way.

     When POSIX ACLs are enabled via SB_POSIXACL the vfs cannot strip
     the umask because if the relevant inode has POSIX ACLs set it might
     take the umask from there. But if the inode doesn't have any POSIX
     ACLs set then we apply the umask in the filesytem itself. So we end
     up with:

      (1) no SB_POSIXACL -> strip umask in vfs
      (2) SB_POSIXACL    -> strip umask in filesystem

     The umask semantics associated with SB_POSIXACL allowed filesystems
     that don't even support POSIX ACLs at all to raise SB_POSIXACL
     purely to avoid umask stripping. That specifically means NFS v4 and
     Overlayfs. NFS v4 does it because it delegates this to the server
     and Overlayfs because it needs to delegate umask stripping to the
     upper filesystem, i.e., the filesystem used as the writable layer.

     This went so far that SB_POSIXACL is raised eve on kernels that
     don't even have POSIX ACL support at all.

     Stop this blatant abuse and add SB_I_NOUMASK which is an internal
     superblock flag that filesystems can raise to opt out of umask
     handling. That should really only be the two mentioned above. It's
     not that we want any filesystems to do this. Ideally we have all
     umask handling always in the vfs.

   - Make overlayfs use SB_I_NOUMASK too.

   - Now that we have SB_I_NOUMASK, stop checking for SB_POSIXACL in
     IS_POSIXACL() if the kernel doesn't have support for it. This is a
     very old patch but it's only possible to do this now with the wider
     cleanup that was done.

   - Follow-up work on fake path handling from last cycle. Citing mostly
     from Amir:

     When overlayfs was first merged, overlayfs files of regular files
     and directories, the ones that are installed in file table, had a
     "fake" path, namely, f_path is the overlayfs path and f_inode is
     the "real" inode on the underlying filesystem.

     In v6.5, we took another small step by introducing of the
     backing_file container and the file_real_path() helper. This change
     allowed vfs and filesystem code to get the "real" path of an
     overlayfs backing file. With this change, we were able to make
     fsnotify work correctly and report events on the "real" filesystem
     objects that were accessed via overlayfs.

     This method works fine, but it still leaves the vfs vulnerable to
     new code that is not aware of files with fake path. A recent
     example is commit db1d1e8b9867 ("IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get
     the i_version"). This commit uses direct referencing to f_path in
     IMA code that otherwise uses file_inode() and file_dentry() to
     reference the filesystem objects that it is measuring.

     This contains work to switch things around: instead of having
     filesystem code opt-in to get the "real" path, have generic code
     opt-in for the "fake" path in the few places that it is needed.

     Is it far more likely that new filesystems code that does not use
     the file_dentry() and file_real_path() helpers will end up causing
     crashes or averting LSM/audit rules if we keep the "fake" path
     exposed by default.

     This change already makes file_dentry() moot, but for now we did
     not change this helper just added a WARN_ON() in ovl_d_real() to
     catch if we have made any wrong assumptions.

     After the dust settles on this change, we can make file_dentry() a
     plain accessor and we can drop the inode argument to ->d_real().

   - Switch struct file to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This looks like a small
     change but it really isn't and I would like to see everyone on
     their tippie toes for any possible bugs from this work.

     Essentially we've been doing most of what SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for
     files since a very long time because of the nasty interactions
     between the SCM_RIGHTS file descriptor garbage collection. So
     extending it makes a lot of sense but it is a subtle change. There
     are almost no places that fiddle with file rcu semantics directly
     and the ones that did mess around with struct file internal under
     rcu have been made to stop doing that because it really was always
     dodgy.

     I forgot to put in the link tag for this change and the discussion
     in the commit so adding it into the merge message:

  Cleanups:

   - Various smaller pipe cleanups including the removal of a spin lock
     that was only used to protect against writes without pipe_lock()
     from O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE aka watch queues. As that was never
     implemented remove the additional locking from pipe_write().

   - Annotate struct watch_filter with the new __counted_by attribute.

   - Clarify do_unlinkat() cleanup so that it doesn't look like an extra
     iput() is done that would cause issues.

   - Simplify file cleanup when the file has never been opened.

   - Use module helper instead of open-coding it.

   - Predict error unlikely for stale retry.

   - Use WRITE_ONCE() for mount expiry field instead of just commenting
     that one hopes the compiler doesn't get smart.

  Fixes:

   - Fix readahead on block devices.

   - Fix writeback when layztime is enabled and inodes whose timestamp
     is the only thing that changed reside on wb->b_dirty_time. This
     caused excessively large zombie memory cgroup when lazytime was
     enabled as such inodes weren't handled fast enough.

   - Convert BUG_ON() to WARN_ON_ONCE() in open_last_lookups()"
