Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "pid: make sub-init creation retryable" (Oleg Nesterov)

   Make creation of init in a new namespace more robust by clearing away
   some historical cruft which is no longer needed. Also some
   documentation fixups

 - "selftests/fchmodat2: Error handling and general" (Mark Brown)

   Fix and a cleanup for the fchmodat2() syscall selftest

 - "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up" (Andy Shevchenko)

 - "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for hung task detector"
   (Aaron Tomlin)

   Give administrators the ability to zero out
   /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count

 - "tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers from
   tools/include/uapi" (Thomas Weißschuh)

   Teach getdelays to use the in-kernel UAPI headers rather than the
   system-provided ones

 - "watchdog/hardlockup: Improvements to hardlockup" (Mayank Rungta)

   Several cleanups and fixups to the hardlockup detector code and its
   documentation

 - "lib/bch: fix undefined behavior from signed left-shifts" (Josh Law)

   A couple of small/theoretical fixes in the bch code

 - "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()" (Junrui Luo)

 - "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)

   A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
   quote Christoph:

     "The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
      now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
      and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
      sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
      sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
      many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
      the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
      code.

      Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
      architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
      Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
      that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
      smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
      here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
      overhead"

 - "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling workarounds"
   (Kuan-Wei Chiu)

   Clean up this library code by removing a hacky thing which was added
   for UBIFS, which UBIFS doesn't actually need

 - "Fix bugs in extract_iter_to_sg()" (Christian Ehrhardt)

   Fix a few bugs in the scatterlist code, add in-kernel tests for the
   now-fixed bugs and fix a leak in the test itself

 - "kdump: Enable LUKS-encrypted dump target support in ARM64 and
   PowerPC" (Coiby Xu)

   Enable support of the LUKS-encrypted device dump target on arm64 and
   powerpc

 - "ocfs2: consolidate extent list validation into block read callbacks"
   (Joseph Qi)

   Cleanup, simplify, and make more robust ocfs2's validation of extent
   list fields (Kernel test robot loves mounting corrupted fs images!)

<title>ubsan: turn off kmsan inside of ubsan instrumentation</title>

<id>d7651089939bf00fe033845e662905ce750b1f18</id>
<content type='text'>
The structure initialization in the two type mismatch handling functions
causes a call to __msan_memset() to be generated inside of a UACCESS
block, which in turn leads to an objtool warning about possibly leaking
uaccess-enabled state:

lib/ubsan.o: warning: objtool: __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch+0xda: call to __msan_memset() with UACCESS enabled
lib/ubsan.o: warning: objtool: __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1+0xf4: call to __msan_memset() with UACCESS enabled

Most likely __msan_memset() is safe to be called here and could be added
to the uaccess_safe_builtin[] list of safe functions, but seeing that the
ubsan file itself already has kasan, ubsan and kcsan disabled itself, it
is probably a good idea to also turn off kmsan here, in particular this
also avoids the risk of recursing between ubsan and kcsan checks in other
functions of this file.

I saw this happen while testing randconfig builds with clang-22, but did
not try older versions, or attempt to see which kernel change introduced
the warning.

Move the RAID XOR code to lib/raid/ as it has nothing to do with the
crypto API.

<title>workqueue: add test_workqueue benchmark module</title>

<id>24b2e73f9700e0682575feb34556b756e59d4548</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a kernel module that benchmarks queue_work() throughput on an
unbound workqueue to measure pool-&gt;lock contention under different
affinity scope configurations (cache vs cache_shard).

The module spawns N kthreads (default: num_online_cpus()), each bound
to a different CPU. All threads start simultaneously and queue work
items, measuring the latency of each queue_work() call. Results are
reported as p50/p90/p95 latencies for each affinity scope.

The affinity scope is switched between runs via the workqueue's sysfs
affinity_scope attribute (WQ_SYSFS), avoiding the need for any new
exported symbols.

The module runs as __init-only, returning -EAGAIN to auto-unload,
and can be re-run via insmod.

Example of the output:

 running 50 threads, 50000 items/thread

   cpu              6806017 items/sec p50=2574    p90=5068    p95=5818 ns
   smt              6821040 items/sec p50=2624    p90=5168    p95=5949 ns
   cache_shard      1633653 items/sec p50=5337    p90=9694    p95=11207 ns
   cache            286069 items/sec p50=72509    p90=82304   p95=85009 ns
   numa             319403 items/sec p50=63745    p90=73480   p95=76505 ns
   system           308461 items/sec p50=66561    p90=75714   p95=78048 ns

Patch series "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up", v2.

While removing Baikal SoC and platform code pieces I found that this code
belongs to lib/math/ rather than generic lib/.  Hence the move and
followed up cleanups.


This patch (of 3):

The algorithm behind polynomial belongs to our collection of math
equations and expressions handling.  Move it to math/ subfolder where
others of the kind are located.

<title>lib/glob: convert selftest to KUnit</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch converts the existing glob selftest (lib/globtest.c) to use the
KUnit framework (lib/tests/glob_kunit.c).

The new test:

- Migrates all 64 test cases from the original test to the KUnit suite.
- Removes the custom 'verbose' module parameter as KUnit handles logging.
- Updates Kconfig.debug and Makefile to support the new KUnit test.
- Updates Kconfig and Makefile to remove the original selftest.
- Updates GLOB_SELFTEST to GLOB_KUNIT_TEST for arch/m68k/configs.

This commit is verified by `./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run'
with the .kunit/.kunitconfig:

CONFIG_KUNIT=y
CONFIG_GLOB_KUNIT_TEST=y

<title>lib/tests: convert test_min_heap module to KUnit</title>

<id>d30aca3eeffc18452e5cc5c4e59f1a4da2bd2f12</id>
<content type='text'>
Move lib/test_min_heap.c to lib/tests/min_heap_kunit.c and convert it to
use KUnit.

This change switches the ad-hoc test code to standard KUnit test cases. 
The test data remains the same, but the verification logic is updated to
use KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros.

Also remove CONFIG_TEST_MIN_HEAP from arch/*/configs/* because it is no
longer used.  The new CONFIG_MIN_HEAP_KUNIT_TEST will be automatically
enabled by CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS.

The reasons for converting to KUnit are:

1. Standardization:
    Switching from ad-hoc printk-based reporting to the standard
    KTAP format makes it easier for CI systems to parse and report test
    results

2. Better Diagnostics:
    Using KUNIT_EXPECT_* macros automatically provides detailed
    diagnostics on failure.

3. Tooling Integration:
    It allows the test to be managed and executed using standard
    KUnit tools.
