Pull parisc architecture fixes from Helge Deller:
 "This patchset fixes and enforces correct section alignments for the
  ex_table, altinstructions, parisc_unwind, jump_table and bug_table
  which are created by inline assembly.

  Due to not being correctly aligned at link &amp; load time they can
  trigger unnecessarily the kernel unaligned exception handler at
  runtime. While at it, I switched the bug table to use relative
  addresses which reduces the size of the table by half on 64-bit.

  We still had the ENOSYM and EREMOTERELEASE errno symbols as left-overs
  from HP-UX, which now trigger build-issues with glibc. We can simply
  remove them.

  Most of the patches are tagged for stable kernel series.

  Summary:

   - Drop HP-UX ENOSYM and EREMOTERELEASE return codes to avoid glibc
     build issues

   - Fix section alignments for ex_table, altinstructions, parisc unwind
     table, jump_table and bug_table

   - Reduce size of bug_table on 64-bit kernel by using relative
     pointers"

Those return codes are only defined for the parisc architecture and
are leftovers from when we wanted to be HP-UX compatible.

They are not returned by any Linux kernel syscall but do trigger
problems with the glibc strerrorname_np() and strerror() functions as
reported in glibc issue #31080.

There is no need to keep them, so simply remove them.

Pull vfs fixes from Christian Brauner:

 - Avoid calling back into LSMs from vfs_getattr_nosec() calls.

   IMA used to query inode properties accessing raw inode fields without
   dedicated helpers. That was finally fixed a few releases ago by
   forcing IMA to use vfs_getattr_nosec() helpers.

   The goal of the vfs_getattr_nosec() helper is to query for attributes
   without calling into the LSM layer which would be quite problematic
   because incredibly IMA is called from __fput()...

     __fput()
       -&gt; ima_file_free()

   What it does is to call back into the filesystem to update the file's
   IMA xattr. Querying the inode without using vfs_getattr_nosec() meant
   that IMA didn't handle stacking filesystems such as overlayfs
   correctly. So the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() is quite correct. But
   the switch to vfs_getattr_nosec() revealed another bug when used on
   stacking filesystems:

     __fput()
       -&gt; ima_file_free()
          -&gt; vfs_getattr_nosec()
             -&gt; i_op-&gt;getattr::ovl_getattr()
                -&gt; vfs_getattr()
                   -&gt; i_op-&gt;getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()
                      -&gt; security_inode_getattr() # calls back into LSMs

   Now, if that __fput() happens from task_work_run() of an exiting task
   current-&gt;fs and various other pointer could already be NULL. So
   anything in the LSM layer relying on that not being NULL would be
   quite surprised.

   Fix that by passing the information that this is a security request
   through to the stacking filesystem by adding a new internal
   ATT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag. Now the callchain becomes:

     __fput()
       -&gt; ima_file_free()
          -&gt; vfs_getattr_nosec()
             -&gt; i_op-&gt;getattr::ovl_getattr()
                -&gt; if (AT_GETATTR_NOSEC)
                          vfs_getattr_nosec()
                   else
                          vfs_getattr()
                   -&gt; i_op-&gt;getattr::$WHATEVER_UNDERLYING_FS_getattr()

 - Fix a bug introduced with the iov_iter rework from last cycle.

   This broke /proc/kcore by copying too much and without the correct
   offset.

 - Add a missing NULL check when allocating the root inode in
   autofs_fill_super().

 - Fix stable writes for multi-device filesystems (xfs, btrfs etc) and
   the block device pseudo filesystem.

   Stable writes used to be a superblock flag only, making it a per
   filesystem property. Add an additional AS_STABLE_WRITES mapping flag
   to allow for fine-grained control.

 - Ensure that offset_iterate_dir() returns 0 after reaching the end of
   a directory so it adheres to getdents() convention.

The recent conversion to inline functions made two mistakes:

1. It tries to copy the full amount requested (bytes), not just what's
   available in the kmap'd page (n).
2. It's not applying the offset in the first page.

Note that copy_page_to_iter_nofault() is only used by /proc/kcore. This
was detected by drgn's test suite.

Zstd used an array of length 1 to mean a flexible array for C89
compatibility. Switch to a C99 flexible array to fix the UBSAN warning.

Tested locally by booting the kernel and writing to and reading from a
BtrFS filesystem with zstd compression enabled. I was unable to reproduce
the issue before the fix, however it is a trivial change.

 "Here's the second big bcachefs pull request. This brings your tree up
  to date with my master branch, which is what existing bcachefs users
  are currently running.

  New features:
   - rebalance_work btree (and metadata version 1.3): the rebalance
     thread no longer has to scan to find extents that need processing -
     big scalability improvement.
   - sb_errors superblock section: this adds counters for each fsck
     error type, since filesystem creation, along with the date of the
     most recent error. It'll get us better bug reports (since users do
     not typically report errors that fsck was able to fix), and I might
     add telemetry for this in the future.

  Fixes include:
   - multiple snapshot deletion fixes
   - members_v2 fixups
   - deleted_inodes btree fixes
   - copygc thread no longer spins when a device is full but has no
     fragmented buckets (i.e. rebalance needs to move data around
     instead)
   - a fix for a memory reclaim issue with the btree key cache: we're
     now careful not to hold the srcu read lock that blocks key cache
     reclaim for too long
   - an early allocator locking fix, from Brian
   - endianness fixes, from Brian
   - CONFIG_BCACHEFS_DEBUG_TRANSACTIONS no longer defaults to y, a big
     performance improvement on multithreaded workloads"

 "Here's the second big bcachefs pull request. This brings your tree up
  to date with my master branch, which is what existing bcachefs users

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:
 "The main new functionality this time is work to allow Linux to
  natively handle CXL link protocol errors signalled via PCIe AER for
  current generation CXL platforms. This required some enlightenment of
  the PCIe AER core to workaround the fact that current generation RCH
  (Restricted CXL Host) platforms physically hide topology details and
  registers via a mechanism called RCRB (Root Complex Register Block).

  The next major highlight is reworks to address bugs in parsing region
  configurations for next generation VH (Virtual Host) topologies. The
  old broken algorithm is replaced with a simpler one that significantly
  increases the number of region configurations supported by Linux. This
  is again relevant for error handling so that forward and reverse
  address translation of memory errors can be carried out by Linux for
  memory regions instantiated by platform firmware.

  As for other cross-tree work, the ACPI table parsing code has been
  refactored for reuse parsing the "CDAT" structure which is an
  ACPI-like data structure that is reported by CXL devices. That work is
  in preparation for v6.8 support for CXL QoS. Think of this as dynamic
  generation of NUMA node topology information generated by Linux rather
  than platform firmware.

  Lastly, a number of internal object lifetime issues have been resolved
  along with misc. fixes and feature updates (decoders_committed sysfs
  ABI).

  Summary:

   - Add support for RCH (Restricted CXL Host) Error recovery

   - Fix several region assembly bugs

   - Fix mem-device lifetime issues relative to the sanitize command and
     RCH topology.

   - Refactor ACPI table parsing for CDAT parsing re-use in preparation
     for CXL QOS support"
