Pull cxl fixes from Dan Williams:
 "A collection of significant fixes for the CXL subsystem.

  The largest change in this set, that bordered on "new development", is
  the fix for the fact that the location of the new qos_class attribute
  did not match the Documentation. The fix ends up deleting more code
  than it added, and it has a new unit test to backstop basic errors in
  this interface going forward. So the "red-diff" and unit test saved
  the "rip it out and try again" response.

  In contrast, the new notification path for firmware reported CXL
  errors (CXL CPER notifications) has a locking context bug that can not
  be fixed with a red-diff. Given where the release cycle stands, it is
  not comfortable to squeeze in that fix in these waning days. So, that
  receives the "back it out and try again later" treatment.

  There is a regression fix in the code that establishes memory NUMA
  nodes for platform CXL regions. That has an ack from x86 folks. There
  are a couple more fixups for Linux to understand (reassemble) CXL
  regions instantiated by platform firmware. The policy around platforms
  that do not match host-physical-address with system-physical-address
  (i.e. systems that have an address translation mechanism between the
  address range reported in the ACPI CEDT.CFMWS and endpoint decoders)
  has been softened to abort driver load rather than teardown the memory
  range (can cause system hangs). Lastly, there is a robustness /
  regression fix for cases where the driver would previously continue in
  the face of error, and a fixup for PCI error notification handling.

  Summary:

   - Fix NUMA initialization from ACPI CEDT.CFMWS

   - Fix region assembly failures due to async init order

   - Fix / simplify export of qos_class information

   - Fix cxl_acpi initialization vs single-window-init failures

   - Fix handling of repeated 'pci_channel_io_frozen' notifications

   - Workaround platforms that violate host-physical-address ==
     system-physical address assumptions

   - Defer CXL CPER notification handling to v6.9"

* tag 'cxl-fixes-6.8-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl:
  cxl/acpi: Fix load failures due to single window creation failure

Architectures like powerpc add debug checks to ensure we find only devmap
PUD pte entries.  These debug checks are only done with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. 
This patch marks the ptes used for PUD advanced test devmap pte entries so
that we don't hit on debug checks on architecture like ppc64 as below.

<title>mm: cachestat: fix folio read-after-free in cache walk</title>

<id>3a75cb05d53f4a6823a32deb078de1366954a804</id>
<content type='text'>
In cachestat, we access the folio from the page cache's xarray to compute
its page offset, and check for its dirty and writeback flags.  However, we
do not hold a reference to the folio before performing these actions,
which means the folio can concurrently be released and reused as another
folio/page/slab.

Get around this altogether by just using xarray's existing machinery for
the folio page offsets and dirty/writeback states.

This changes behavior for tmpfs files to now always report zeroes in their
dirty and writeback counters.  This is okay as tmpfs doesn't follow
conventional writeback cache behavior: its pages get "cleaned" during
swapout, after which they're no longer resident etc.

<title>mm/vmscan: fix a bug calling wakeup_kswapd() with a wrong zone index</title>

<id>2774f256e7c0219e2b0a0894af1c76bdabc4f974</id>
<content type='text'>
With numa balancing on, when a numa system is running where a numa node
doesn't have its local memory so it has no managed zones, the following
oops has been observed.  It's because wakeup_kswapd() is called with a
wrong zone index, -1.  Fixed it by checking the index before calling
wakeup_kswapd().

With numa balancing on, when a numa system is running where a numa node
doesn't have its local memory so it has no managed zones, the following
oops has been observed.  It's because wakeup_kswapd() is called with a
wrong zone index, -1.  Fixed it by checking the index before calling
wakeup_kswapd().

<title>kasan: revert eviction of stack traces in generic mode</title>

<id>711d349174fd5cf906955249dd0163635e144a1e</id>
<content type='text'>
This partially reverts commits cc478e0b6bdf, 63b85ac56a64, 08d7c94d9635,
a414d4286f34, and 773688a6cb24 to make use of variable-sized stack depot
records, since eviction of stack entries from stack depot forces fixed-
sized stack records.  Care was taken to retain the code cleanups by the
above commits.

Eviction was added to generic KASAN as a response to alleviating the
additional memory usage from fixed-sized stack records, but this still
uses more memory than previously.

With the re-introduction of variable-sized records for stack depot, we can
just switch back to non-evictable stack records again, and return back to
the previous performance and memory usage baseline.

Before (observed after a KASAN kernel boot):

  pools: 597
  refcounted_allocations: 17547
  refcounted_frees: 6477
  refcounted_in_use: 11070
  freelist_size: 3497
  persistent_count: 12163
  persistent_bytes: 1717008

After:

  pools: 319
  refcounted_allocations: 0
  refcounted_frees: 0
  refcounted_in_use: 0
  freelist_size: 0
  persistent_count: 29397
  persistent_bytes: 5183536

As can be seen from the counters, with a generic KASAN config, refcounted
allocations and evictions are no longer used.  Due to using variable-sized
records, I observe a reduction of 278 stack depot pools (saving 4448 KiB)
with my test setup.

<title>kasan: guard release_free_meta() shadow access with kasan_arch_is_ready()</title>

release_free_meta() accesses the shadow directly through the path

  kasan_slab_free
    __kasan_slab_free
      kasan_release_object_meta
        release_free_meta
          kasan_mem_to_shadow

There are no kasan_arch_is_ready() guards here, allowing an oops when the
shadow is not initialized.  The oops can be seen on a Power8 KVM guest.

This patch adds the guard to release_free_meta(), as it's the first level
that specifically requires the shadow.

It is safe to put the guard at the start of this function, before the
stack put: only kasan_save_free_info() can initialize the saved stack,
which itself is guarded with kasan_arch_is_ready() by its caller
poison_slab_object().  If the arch becomes ready before
release_free_meta() then we will not observe KASAN_SLAB_FREE_META in the
object's shadow, so we will not put an uninitialized stack either.

<title>mm/damon/lru_sort: fix quota status loss due to online tunings</title>

For online parameters change, DAMON_LRU_SORT creates new schemes based on
latest values of the parameters and replaces the old schemes with the new
one.  When creating it, the internal status of the quotas of the old
schemes is not preserved.  As a result, charging of the quota starts from
zero after the online tuning.  The data that collected to estimate the
throughput of the scheme's action is also reset, and therefore the
estimation should start from the scratch again.  Because the throughput
estimation is being used to convert the time quota to the effective size
quota, this could result in temporal time quota inaccuracy.  It would be
recovered over time, though.  In short, the quota accuracy could be
temporarily degraded after online parameters update.

Fix the problem by checking the case and copying the internal fields for
the status.

Patch series "mm/damon: fix quota status loss due to online tunings".

DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT is not preserving internal quota status
when applying new user parameters, and hence could cause temporal quota
accuracy degradation.  Fix it by preserving the status.


This patch (of 2):

For online parameters change, DAMON_RECLAIM creates new scheme based on
