Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

  Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
  other minor patch series being held over for next time.

  Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
  stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
  later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
  into 6.1-rc1.

  Summary:

   - The usual batches of cleanups from Baoquan He, Muchun Song, Miaohe
     Lin, Yang Shi, Anshuman Khandual and Mike Rapoport

   - Some kmemleak fixes from Patrick Wang and Waiman Long

   - DAMON updates from SeongJae Park

   - memcg debug/visibility work from Roman Gushchin

   - vmalloc speedup from Uladzislau Rezki

   - more folio conversion work from Matthew Wilcox

   - enhancements for coherent device memory mapping from Alex Sierra

   - addition of shared pages tracking and CoW support for fsdax, from
     Shiyang Ruan

   - hugetlb optimizations from Mike Kravetz

   - Mel Gorman has contributed some pagealloc changes to improve

In a system(Huawei Ascend ARM64 SoC) using HBM, a multi-bit ECC error
occurs, and the BIOS will mark the corresponding area (for example, 2 MB)
as unusable.  When the system restarts next time, these areas are not
reported or reported as EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY.  Both cases lead to an
increase in the number of memblocks, whereas EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY leads to
a larger number of memblocks.

For example, if the EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY type is reported:
...

The EFI memory map is parsed to construct the memblock arrays before the
memblock arrays can be resized.  As the result, memory regions beyond
INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS are lost.

Add a new macro INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS to replace
INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGTIONS to define the size of the static memblock.memory
array.

Allow overriding memblock.memory array size with architecture defined
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS and make arm64 to set
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS to 1024 when CONFIG_EFI is enabled.

<title>memblock: avoid some repeat when add new range</title>

<content type='text'>
The worst case is that the new memory range overlaps all existing
regions, which requires type-&gt;cnt + 1 empty struct memblock_region slots in
the type-&gt;regions array.
So if type-&gt;cnt + 1 + type-&gt;cnt is less than type-&gt;max, we can insert
regions directly rather than calculate the needed amount before the
insertion.
And becase of merge operation in the end of function, tpye-&gt;cnt will
increase slowly for many cases.

This change allows to avoid unnecessary repeat of memblock ranges traversal
for many cases when adding new memory range.

Patch series "mm: kmemleak: store objects allocated with physical address
separately and check when scan", v4.

The kmemleak_*_phys() interface uses "min_low_pfn" and "max_low_pfn" to
check address.  But on some architectures, kmemleak_*_phys() is called
before those two variables initialized.  The following steps will be
taken:

1) Add OBJECT_PHYS flag and rbtree for the objects allocated
   with physical address
2) Store physical address in objects if allocated with OBJECT_PHYS
3) Check the boundary when scan instead of in kmemleak_*_phys()

This patch set will solve:

This patch (of 4):

Remove the unused kmemleak_not_leak_phys() function.  And remove the
min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys() function, assume it's 0.

This patch (of 4):

Remove the unused kmemleak_not_leak_phys() function.  And remove the
min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys() function, assume it's 0.

<title>memblock: Disable mirror feature if kernelcore is not specified</title>

If system have some mirrored memory and mirrored feature is not specified
in boot parameter, the basic mirrored feature will be enabled and this will
lead to the following situations:

- memblock memory allocation prefers mirrored region. This may have some
  unexpected influence on numa affinity.

- contiguous memory will be split into several parts if parts of them
  is mirrored memory via memblock_mark_mirror().

To fix this, variable mirrored_kernelcore will be checked in
memblock_mark_mirror(). Mark mirrored memory with flag MEMBLOCK_MIRROR iff
kernelcore=mirror is added in the kernel parameters.

If system has mirrored memory, memblock will try to allocate mirrored
memory firstly and fallback to non-mirrored memory when fails, but if with
limited mirrored memory or some numa node without mirrored memory, lots of
warning message about memblock allocation will occur.

This patch ratelimit the warning message to avoid a very long print during
bootup.

The nid is only used to act as output parameter of __next_mem_range.
Since NULL can be passed to __next_mem_range as out_nid, we can thus
remove nid by passing NULL here.
