Entries (including flags) are u64, even on 32bit.  So right now we are
cutting of the flags on 32bit.  This way, for example the cow selftest
complains about:

  # ./cow
  ...
  Bail Out! read and ioctl return unmatched results for populated: 0 1

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for running Linux in a protected VM under the Arm
   Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA)

 - Guarded Control Stack user-space support. Current patches follow the
   x86 ABI of implicitly creating a shadow stack on clone(). Subsequent
   patches (already on the list) will add support for clone3() allowing
   finer-grained control of the shadow stack size and placement from
   libc

 - AT_HWCAP3 support (not running out of HWCAP2 bits yet but we are
   getting close with the upcoming dpISA support)

 - Other arch features:

     - In-kernel use of the memcpy instructions, FEAT_MOPS (previously
       only exposed to user; uaccess support not merged yet)

     - MTE: hugetlbfs support and the corresponding kselftests

     - Optimise CRC32 using the PMULL instructions

     - Support for FEAT_HAFT enabling ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG

     - Optimise the kernel TLB flushing to use the range operations

     - POE/pkey (permission overlays): further cleanups after bringing
       the signal handler in line with the x86 behaviour for 6.12

 - arm64 perf updates:

     - Support for the NXP i.MX91 PMU in the existing IMX driver

     - Support for Ampere SoCs in the Designware PCIe PMU driver

     - Support for Marvell's 'PEM' PCIe PMU present in the 'Odyssey' SoC

     - Support for Samsung's 'Mongoose' CPU PMU

     - Support for PMUv3.9 finer-grained userspace counter access
       control

     - Switch back to platform_driver::remove() now that it returns
       'void'

     - Add some missing events for the CXL PMU driver

 - Miscellaneous arm64 fixes/cleanups:

     - Page table accessors cleanup: type updates, drop unused macros,
       reorganise arch_make_huge_pte() and clean up pte_mkcont(), sanity
       check addresses before runtime P4D/PUD folding

     - Command line override for ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.ECV (advertising the
       FEAT_ECV for the generic timers) allowing Linux to boot with
       firmware deployments that don't set SCTLR_EL3.ECVEn

     - ACPI/arm64: tighten the check for the array of platform timer
       structures and adjust the error handling procedure in
       gtdt_parse_timer_block()

     - Optimise the cache flush for the uprobes xol slot (skip if no
       change) and other uprobes/kprobes cleanups

     - Fix the context switching of tpidrro_el0 when kpti is enabled

     - Dynamic shadow call stack fixes

     - Sysreg updates

     - Various arm64 kselftest improvements

<title>fs/proc/task_mmu: prevent integer overflow in pagemap_scan_get_args()</title>

The "arg-&gt;vec_len" variable is a u64 that comes from the user at the start
of the function.  The "arg-&gt;vec_len * sizeof(struct page_region))"
multiplication can lead to integer wrapping.  Use size_mul() to avoid
that.

Also the size_add/mul() functions work on unsigned long so for 32bit
systems we need to ensure that "arg-&gt;vec_len" fits in an unsigned long.

show show_smap_vma_flags() has been a using misspelled initializer in
mnemonics[] - it needed to initialize 2 element array of char and it used
NUL-padded 2 character string literals (i.e.  3-element initializer).

This has been spotted by gcc-15[*]; prior to that gcc quietly dropped the
3rd eleemnt of initializers.  To fix this we are increasing the size of
mnemonics[] (from mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][2] to
mnemonics[BITS_PER_LONG][3]) to accomodate the NUL-padded string literals.

This also helps us in simplyfying the logic for printing of the flags as
instead of printing each character from the mnemonics[], we can just print
the mnemonics[] using seq_printf.

Stephen pointed out:

: The C standard explicitly allows for a string initializer to be too long
: due to the NUL byte at the end ...  so this warning may be overzealous.

but let's make the warning go away anwyay.

Since multiple architectures have support for shadow stacks and we need to
select support for this feature in several places in the generic code
provide a generic config option that the architectures can select.

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Many singleton patches - please see the various changelogs for
  details.

  Quite a lot of nilfs2 work this time around.

  Notable patch series in this pull request are:

   - "mul_u64_u64_div_u64: new implementation" by Nicolas Pitre, with
     assistance from Uwe Kleine-König. Reimplement mul_u64_u64_div_u64()
     to provide (much) more accurate results. The current implementation
     was causing Uwe some issues in the PWM drivers.

   - "xz: Updates to license, filters, and compression options" from
     Lasse Collin. Miscellaneous maintenance and kinor feature work to
     the xz decompressor.

   - "Fix some GDB command error and add some GDB commands" from
     Kuan-Ying Lee. Fixes and enhancements to the gdb scripts.

   - "treewide: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros" from Jeff
     Johnson. Adds lots of MODULE_DESCRIPTIONs, thus fixing lots of
     warnings about this.

   - "nilfs2: add support for some common ioctls" from Ryusuke Konishi.
     Adds various commonly-available ioctls to nilfs2.

   - "This series fixes a number of formatting issues in kernel doc
     comments" from Ryusuke Konishi does that.

   - "nilfs2: prevent unexpected ENOENT propagation" from Ryusuke
     Konishi. Fix issues where -ENOENT was being unintentionally and
     inappropriately returned to userspace.

   - "nilfs2: assorted cleanups" from Huang Xiaojia.

   - "nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes" from Ryusuke
     Konishi fixes some issues which can occur on corrupted nilfs2
     filesystems.

   - "scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: improve error reporting and
     usability" from Luca Ceresoli does those things"

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
 "Originally I'd planned on sending each of the vDSO getrandom()
  architecture ports to their respective arch trees. But as we started
  to work on this, we found lots of interesting issues in the shared
  code and infrastructure, the fixes for which the various archs needed
  to base their work.

  So in the end, this turned into a nice collaborative effort fixing up
  issues and porting to 5 new architectures -- arm64, powerpc64,
  powerpc32, s390x, and loongarch64 -- with everybody pitching in and
  commenting on each other's code. It was a fun development cycle.

  This contains:

   - Numerous fixups to the vDSO selftest infrastructure, getting it
     running successfully on more platforms, and fixing bugs in it.

   - Additions to the vDSO getrandom &amp; chacha selftests. Basically every
     time manual review unearthed a bug in a revision of an arch patch,
     or an ambiguity, the tests were augmented.

     By the time the last arch was submitted for review, s390x, v1 of
     the series was essentially fine right out of the gate.

   - Fixes to the the generic C implementation of vDSO getrandom, to
     build and run successfully on all archs, decoupling it from
     assumptions we had (unintentionally) made on x86_64 that didn't
     carry through to the other architectures.

   - Port of vDSO getrandom to LoongArch64, from Xi Ruoyao and acked by
     Huacai Chen.

   - Port of vDSO getrandom to ARM64, from Adhemerval Zanella and acked
     by Will Deacon.

   - Port of vDSO getrandom to PowerPC, in both 32-bit and 64-bit
     varieties, from Christophe Leroy and acked by Michael Ellerman.

   - Port of vDSO getrandom to S390X from Heiko Carstens, the arch
     maintainer.

  While it'd be natural for there to be things to fix up over the course
  of the development cycle, these patches got a decent amount of review
  from a fairly diverse crew of folks on the mailing lists, and, for the
  most part, they've been cooking in linux-next, which has been helpful
  for ironing out build issues.

  In terms of architectures, I think that mostly takes care of the
  important 64-bit archs with hardware still being produced and running
  production loads in settings where vDSO getrandom is likely to help.

  Arguably there's still RISC-V left, and we'll see for 6.13 whether
  they find it useful and submit a port"

Commit 9651fcedf7b9 ("mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always
lazily freeable mappings") only adds VM_DROPPABLE for 64 bits
architectures.

In order to also use the getrandom vDSO implementation on powerpc/32,
use VM_ARCH_1 for VM_DROPPABLE on powerpc/32. This is possible because
VM_ARCH_1 is used for VM_SAO on powerpc and VM_SAO is only for
powerpc/64. It is used in combination with PROT_SAO in some parts of
code that are restricted to CONFIG_PPC64 through #ifdefs, it is
therefore possible to define VM_SAO for CONFIG_PPC64 only.

A piece of build ID handling code in PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl() was
accidentally duplicated.  It wasn't meant to be part of ed5d583a88a9
("fs/procfs: implement efficient VMA querying API for /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/maps")
commit, which is what introduced duplication.

It has no correctness implications, but we unnecessarily perform the same
work twice, if build ID parsing is requested.  Drop the duplication.
