      Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
      
       - Add vfio-ap support to pass-through crypto devices to secure
         execution guests
      
       - Add API ordinal 6 support to zcrypt_ep11misc device drive, which is
         required to handle key generate and key derive (e.g. secure key to
         protected key) correctly
      
       - Add missing secure/has_secure sysfs files for the case where it is
         not possible to figure where a system has been booted from. Existing
         user space relies on that these files are always present
      
       - Fix DCSS block device driver list corruption, caused by incorrect
         error handling
      
       - Convert virt_to_pfn() and pfn_to_virt() from defines to static inline
         functions to enforce type checking
      
       - Cleanups, improvements, and minor fixes to the kernel mapping setup
      
       - Fix various virtual vs physical address confusions
      
       - Move pfault code to separate file, since it has nothing to do with
         regular fault handling
      
       - Move s390 documentation to Documentation/arch/ like it has been done
         for other architectures already
      
       - Add HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RETVAL support
      
       - Factor out the s390_hypfs filesystem and add a new config option for
         it. The filesystem is deprecated and as soon as all users are gone it
         can be removed some time in the not so near future
      
       - Remove support for old CEX2 and CEX3 crypto cards from zcrypt device
         driver
      
       - Add support for user-defined certificates: receive user-defined
         certificates with a diagnose call and provide them via 'cert_store'
         keyring to user space
      
       - Couple of other small fixes and improvements all over the place

      Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
      
       - The biggest change is introduction of a new iteration of the
         SCHED_FAIR interactivity code: the EEVDF ("Earliest Eligible Virtual
         Deadline First") scheduler
      
         EEVDF too is a virtual-time scheduler, with two parameters (weight
         and relative deadline), compared to CFS that had weight only. It
         completely reworks the base scheduler: placement, preemption, picking
         -- everything
      
         LWN.net, as usual, has a terrific writeup about EEVDF:
      
            https://lwn.net/Articles/925371/
      
         Preemption (both tick and wakeup) is driven by testing against a
         fresh pick. Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and
         the selection is no longer the 'leftmost' task, over-scheduling is
         less of a problem. A lot of the CFS heuristics are removed or
         replaced by more natural latency-space parameters & constructs
      
         In terms of expected performance regressions: we will and can fix
         everything where a 'good' workload misbehaves with the new scheduler,
         but EEVDF inevitably changes workload scheduling in a binary fashion,
         hopefully for the better in the overwhelming majority of cases, but
         in some cases it won't, especially in adversarial loads that got
         lucky with the previous code, such as some variants of hackbench. We
         are trying hard to err on the side of fixing all performance
         regressions, but we expect some inevitable post-release iterations of
         that process
      
       - Improve load-balancing on hybrid x86 systems: enable cluster
         scheduling (again)
      
       - Improve & fix bandwidth-scheduling on nohz systems
      
       - Improve bandwidth-throttling
      
       - Use lock guards to simplify and de-goto-ify control flow

           Though PowerPC has up to 16 threads per core and so far it's only
           possible to control the number of enabled threads per core via a
           command line option. There is some way to control this at runtime,
           but that lacks enforcement and the usability is awkward
      
           This update expands the sysfs interface and the core infrastructure
           to accept numerical values so PowerPC can build SMT runtime control
           for partial SMT enablement on top
      
           The core support has also been provided to the PowerPC maintainers
           who added the PowerPC related changes on top

        cleanups. The notable fix is the scrub performance restoration after
        rewrite in 6.4, though still only partial.
      
        Fixes:
      
         - scrub performance drop due to rewrite in 6.4 partially restored:
            - do IO grouping by blg_plug/blk_unplug again
            - avoid unnecessary tree searches when processing stripes, in
              extent and checksum trees
            - the drop is noticeable on fast PCIe devices, -66% and restored
              to -33% of the original
            - backports to 6.4 planned
      
         - handle more corner cases of transaction commit during orphan
           cleanup or delayed ref processing
      
         - use correct fsid/metadata_uuid when validating super block
      
         - copy directory permissions and time when creating a stub subvolume
      
        Core:
      
         - debugging feature integrity checker deprecated, to be removed in
           6.7
      
         - in zoned mode, zones are activated just before the write, making
           error handling easier, now the overcommit mechanism can be enabled
           again which improves performance by avoiding more frequent flushing
      
         - v0 extent handling completely removed, deprecated long time ago
      
         - error handling improvements
      
         - tests:
            - extent buffer bitmap tests
            - pinned extent splitting tests
      
         - cleanups and refactoring:

      Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
       "We've got some big changes for this release -- I'm very happy to be
        landing willy's work to enable large folios for the page cache for
        general read and write IOs when the fs can make contiguous space
        allocations, and Ritesh's work to track sub-folio dirty state to
        eliminate the write amplification problems inherent in using large
        folios.
      
        As a bonus, io_uring can now process write completions in the caller's
        context instead of bouncing through a workqueue, which should reduce
        io latency dramatically. IOWs, XFS should see a nice performance bump
        for both IO paths.
      
        Summary:
      
         - Make large writes to the page cache fill sparse parts of the cache
           with large folios, then use large memcpy calls for the large folio.
      
         - Track the per-block dirty state of each large folio so that a
           buffered write to a single byte on a large folio does not result in
           a (potentially) multi-megabyte writeback IO.
      
         - Allow some directio completions to be performed in the initiating
           task's context instead of punting through a workqueue. This will
           reduce latency for some io_uring requests"

      Pull erofs updates from Gao Xiang:
       "In this cycle, a xattr bloom filter feature is introduced to speed up
        negative xattr lookups, which was originally suggested by Alexander
        for Composefs use cases.
      
        Additionally, the DEFLATE algorithm is now supported, which can be
        used together with hardware accelerators for our cloud workloads. Each
        supported compression algorithm can be selected on a per-file basis
        for specific access patterns too.
      
        There are also some random fixes and cleanups as usual:
      
         - Support xattr bloom filter to optimize negative xattr lookups
      
         - Support DEFLATE compression algorithm as an alternative
      
         - Fix a regression that ztailpacking pclusters don't release properly
      
         - Avoid warning dedupe and fragments features anymore
      
         - Some folio conversions and cleanups"
