Patch series "nilfs2 minor amendments".
This patch (of 2):
The brelse() inline function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus remove the tests which are not needed around
the shown calls.

The msg_bytes and msg_hdrs atomic counters are frequently updated when IPC
msg queue is in heavy use, causing heavy cache bounce and overhead.
Change them to percpu_counter greatly improve the performance. Since
there is one percpu struct per namespace, additional memory cost is
minimal. Reading of the count done in msgctl call, which is infrequent.
So the need to sum up the counts in each CPU is infrequent.

Patch series "/msg: mitigate the lock contention in ipc/msg", v6.
Here are two patches to mitigate the lock contention in ipc/msg.
The 1st patch is to add the new interface percpu_counter_add_local and
percpu_counter_sub_local. The batch size in percpu_counter_add_batch
should be very large in heavy writing and rare reading case. Add the
"_local" version, and mostly it will do local adding, reduce the global
updating and mitigate lock contention in writing.
The 2nd patch is to use percpu_counter instead of atomic update in
ipc/msg. The msg_bytes and msg_hdrs atomic counters are frequently
updated when IPC msg queue is in heavy use, causing heavy cache bounce and
overhead. Change them to percpu_counter greatly improve the performance.
Since there is one percpu struct per namespace, additional memory cost is
minimal. Reading of the count done in msgctl call, which is infrequent.
So the need to sum up the counts in each CPU is infrequent.

Commit 2e13ba54a268 ("fs, proc: introduce CONFIG_PROC_CHILDREN")
introduces the config PROC_CHILDREN to configure kernels to provide the
/proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/children file.
When one deselects PROC_FS for kernel builds without /proc/, the config
PROC_CHILDREN has no effect anymore, but is still visible in menuconfig.
Add the dependency on PROC_FS to make the PROC_CHILDREN option disappear
for kernel builds without /proc/.

Currently the gsmi driver registers a panic notifier as well as reboot and
die notifiers. The callbacks registered are called in atomic and very
limited context - for instance, panic disables preemption and local IRQs,
also all secondary CPUs (not executing the panic path) are shutdown.
With that said, taking a spinlock in this scenario is a dangerous
invitation for lockup scenarios. So, fix that by checking if the spinlock
is free to acquire in the panic notifier callback - if not, bail-out and
avoid a potential hang.

Zero-length arrays are deprecated and we are moving towards adopting C99
flexible-array members, instead. So, replace zero-length array
declarations in a couple of structures and unions with the new
DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper macro.
This helper allows for a flexible-array member in a union and as only
member in a structure.
Also, this addresses multiple warnings reported when building with
Clang-15 and -Wzero-length-array.
Lastly, this will also help memcpy (in a coming hardening update) execute
proper bounds-checking on variable length object i_symlink at
fs/ocfs2/namei.c:1973:
fs/ocfs2/namei.c:
1973 memcpy((char *) fe->id2.i_symlink, symname, l);

When using a "FILE *" type, checkpatch considers this an error:
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxV)
#32: FILE: f.c:8:

Fix this by explicitly defining "FILE" as a common type. This is useful for
user space patches.

Kernel iterates over ATTR_RECORDs in mft record in ntfs_attr_find().
Because the ATTR_RECORDs are next to each other, kernel can get the next
ATTR_RECORD from end address of current ATTR_RECORD, through current
ATTR_RECORD length field.
The problem is that during iteration, when kernel calculates the end
address of current ATTR_RECORD, kernel may trigger an integer overflow bug
in executing `a = (ATTR_RECORD*)((u8*)a + le32_to_cpu(a->length))`. This
may wrap, leading to a forever iteration on 32bit systems.
This patch solves it by adding some checks on calculating end address
of current ATTR_RECORD during iteration.

Kernel iterates over ATTR_RECORDs in mft record in ntfs_attr_find(). To
ensure access on these ATTR_RECORDs are within bounds, kernel will do some
checking during iteration.
The problem is that during checking whether ATTR_RECORD's name is within
bounds, kernel will dereferences the ATTR_RECORD name_offset field, before
checking this ATTR_RECORD strcture is within bounds. This problem may
result out-of-bounds read in ntfs_attr_find(), reported by Syzkaller:

Patch series "ntfs: fix bugs about Attribute", v2.
This patchset fixes three bugs relative to Attribute in record:
Patch 1 adds a sanity check to ensure that, attrs_offset field in first
mft record loading from disk is within bounds.
Patch 2 moves the ATTR_RECORD's bounds checking earlier, to avoid
dereferencing ATTR_RECORD before checking this ATTR_RECORD is within
bounds.
Patch 3 adds an overflow checking to avoid possible forever loop in
ntfs_attr_find().
Without patch 1 and patch 2, the kernel triggersa KASAN use-after-free
detection as reported by Syzkaller.
Although one of patch 1 or patch 2 can fix this, we still need both of
them. Because patch 1 fixes the root cause, and patch 2 not only fixes
the direct cause, but also fixes the potential out-of-bounds bug.
This patch (of 3):

Kernel will loads $MFT/$DATA's first mft record in
ntfs_read_inode_mount().
Yet the problem is that after loading, kernel doesn't check whether
attrs_offset field is a valid value.
To be more specific, if attrs_offset field is larger than bytes_allocated
field, then it may trigger the out-of-bounds read bug(reported as
use-after-free bug) in ntfs_attr_find(), when kernel tries to access the
corresponding mft record's attribute.
This patch solves it by adding the sanity check between attrs_offset field
and bytes_allocated field, after loading the first mft record.

kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
Two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as mapping
space is restricted and protected by a global lock for synchronization and
(2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the kmap's pool wraps
and it might block when the mapping space is fully utilized until a slot
becomes available.
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.
Since its use in btree.c is safe everywhere, it should be preferred.
Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in btree.c. Where
possible, use the suited standard helpers (memzero_page(), memcpy_page())
instead of open coding kmap_local_page() plus memset() or memcpy().
Tested in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

Patch series "hfs: Replace kmap() with kmap_local_page()".
kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for

It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the

Since its use in fs/hfs is safe everywhere, it should be preferred.
Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in fs/hfs. Where
possible, use the suited standard helpers (memzero_page(), memcpy_page())
instead of open coding kmap_local_page() plus memset() or memcpy().
Fix a bug due to a page being not unmapped if the code jumps to the
"fail_page" label (1/3).
Tested in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
HIGHMEM64GB enabled.
This patch (of 3):
Several paths within hfs_btree_open() jump to the "fail_page" label where
put_page() is called while the page is still mapped.
Call kunmap() to unmap the page soon before put_page().

clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &tp) is very precise on ia64 as it uses ITC
(similar to rdtsc on x86). It's not quite a hrtimer as it is a few times
slower than 1ns. Usually 2-3ns.
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) never reflected that fact and reported
0.04s precision (1/HZ value).
In https://bugs.gentoo.org/596382 gstreamer's test suite failed loudly
when it noticed precision discrepancy.
Before the change:
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) reported 250Hz precision.
After the change:
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) reports ITC (400Mhz) precision.
The patch is based on matoro's fix. I added a bit of explanation why we
need to special-case arch-specific clock_getres().

brelse() tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately.
Thus remove the tests which are not needed around the shown calls.

Only x86 has own release_thread(), introduce a new weak release_thread()
function to clean empty definitions in other ARCHs.

Do one fork in vsyscall detection code and let SIGSEGV handler exit and
carry information to the parent saving LOC.
