      Pull vfs rename locking updates from Christian Brauner:
       "This contains the work from Jan to fix problems with cross-directory
        renames originally reported in [1].
      
        To quickly sum it up some filesystems (so far we know at least about
        ext4, udf, f2fs, ocfs2, likely also reiserfs, gfs2 and others) need to
        lock the directory when it is being renamed into another directory.
      
        This is because we need to update the parent pointer in the directory
        in that case and if that races with other operations on the directory,
        in particular a conversion from one directory format into another, bad
        things can happen.
      
        So far we've done the locking in the filesystem code but recently
        Darrick pointed out in [2] that the RENAME_EXCHANGE case was missing.
        That one is particularly nasty because RENAME_EXCHANGE can arbitrarily
        mix regular files and directories and proper lock ordering is not
        achievable in the filesystems alone.
      
        This patch set adds locking into vfs_rename() so that not only parent
        directories but also moved inodes, regardless of whether they are
        directories or not, are locked when calling into the filesystem.
      
        This means establishing a locking order for unrelated directories. New
        helpers are added for this purpose and our documentation is updated to
        cover this in detail.
      
        The locking is now actually easier to follow as we now always lock
        source and target. We've always locked the target independent of
        whether it was a directory or file and we've always locked source if
        it was a regular file. The exact details for why this came about can
        be found in [3] and [4]"

      Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
       "Miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual fs
      
        Features:
      
         - Use mode 0600 for file created by cachefilesd so it can be run by
           unprivileged users. This aligns them with directories which are
           already created with mode 0700 by cachefilesd
      
         - Reorder a few members in struct file to prevent some false sharing
           scenarios
      
         - Indicate that an eventfd is used a semaphore in the eventfd's
           fdinfo procfs file
      
         - Add a missing uapi header for eventfd exposing relevant uapi
           defines
      
         - Let the VFS protect transitions of a superblock from read-only to
           read-write in addition to the protection it already provides for
           transitions from read-write to read-only. Protecting read-only to
           read-write transitions allows filesystems such as ext4 to perform
           internal writes, keeping writers away until the transition is
           completed
      
        Cleanups:
      
         - Arnd removed the architecture specific arch_report_meminfo()
           prototypes and added a generic one into procfs.h. Note, we got a
           report about a warning in amdpgpu codepaths that suggested this was
           bisectable to this change but we concluded it was a false positive
      
         - Remove unused parameters from split_fs_names()
      
         - Rename put_and_unmap_page() to unmap_and_put_page() to let the name
           reflect the order of the cleanup operation that has to unmap before
           the actual put
      
         - Unexport buffer_check_dirty_writeback() as it is not used outside
           of block device aops
      
         - Stop allocating aio rings from highmem
      
         - Protecting read-{only,write} transitions in the VFS used open-coded
           barriers in various places. Replace them with proper little helpers
           and document both the helpers and all barrier interactions involved
           when transitioning between read-{only,write} states
      
         - Use flexible array members in old readdir codepaths
      
        Fixes:
      
         - Use the correct type __poll_t for epoll and eventfd
      
         - Replace all deprecated strlcpy() invocations, whose return value
           isn't checked with an equivalent strscpy() call
      
         - Fix some kernel-doc warnings in fs/open.c
      
         - Reduce the stack usage in jffs2's xattr codepaths finally getting
           rid of this: fs/jffs2/xattr.c:887:1: error: the frame size of 1088
           bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
           royally annoying compilation warning
      
         - Use __FMODE_NONOTIFY instead of FMODE_NONOTIFY where an int and not
           fmode_t is required to avoid fmode_t to integer degradation
           warnings
      
         - Create coredumps with O_WRONLY instead of O_RDWR. There's a long
           explanation in that commit how O_RDWR is actually a bug which we
           found out with the help of Linus and git archeology
      
         - Fix "no previous prototype" warnings in the pipe codepaths
      
         - Add overflow calculations for remap_verify_area() as a signed
           addition overflow could be triggered in xfstests
      
         - Fix a null pointer dereference in sysv
      
         - Use an unsigned variable for length calculations in jfs avoiding
           compilation warnings with gcc 13
      
         - Fix a dangling pipe pointer in the watch queue codepath
      
         - The legacy mount option parser provided as a fallback by the VFS
           for filesystems not yet converted to the new mount api did prefix
           the generated mount option string with a leading ',' causing issues
           for some filesystems
      
         - Fix a repeated word in a comment in fs.h
      
         - autofs: Update the ctime when mtime is updated as mandated by
           POSIX"

      Pull rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
       "A fairly small one in terms of feature additions. Most of the changes
        in terms of lines come from the upgrade to the new version of the
        toolchain (which in turn is big due to the vendored 'alloc' crate).
      
        Upgrade to Rust 1.68.2:
      
         - This is the first such upgrade, and we will try to update it often
           from now on, in order to remain close to the latest release, until
           a minimum version (which is "in the future") can be established.
      
           The upgrade brings the stabilization of 4 features we used (and 2
           more that we used in our old 'rust' branch).
      
           Commit 3ed03f4d ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2") contains the
           details and rationale.
      
        pin-init API:
      
         - Several internal improvements and fixes to the pin-init API, e.g.
           allowing to use 'Self' in a struct definition with '#[pin_data]'.
      
        'error' module:
      
         - New 'name()' method for the 'Error' type (with 'errname()'
           integration), used to implement the 'Debug' trait for 'Error'.
      
         - Add error codes from 'include/linux/errno.h' to the list of Rust
           'Error' constants.
      
         - Allow specifying error type on the 'Result' type (with the default
           still being our usual 'Error' type).
      
        'str' module:
      
         - 'TryFrom' implementation for 'CStr', and new 'to_cstring()' method
           based on it.
      
        'sync' module:
      
         - Implement 'AsRef' trait for 'Arc', allowing to use 'Arc' in code
           that is generic over smart pointer types.
      
         - Add 'ptr_eq' method to 'Arc' for easier, less error prone
           comparison between two 'Arc' pointers.
      
         - Reword the 'Send' safety comment for 'Arc', and avoid referencing
           it from the 'Sync' one.
      
        'task' module:
      
         - Implement 'Send' marker for 'Task'.
      
        'types' module:
      
         - Implement 'Send' and 'Sync' markers for 'ARef<T>' when 'T' is
           'AlwaysRefCounted', 'Send' and 'Sync'.
      
        Other changes:
      
         - Documentation improvements and '.gitattributes' change to start
           using the Rust diff driver"
