       "Yet another pile of melted spectrum related updates:
      
         - Drop native vsyscall support finally as it causes more trouble than
           benefit.
      
         - Make microcode loading more robust. There were a few issues
           especially related to late loading which are now surfacing because
           late loading of the IB* microcodes addressing spectre issues has
           become more widely used.
      
         - Simplify and robustify the syscall handling in the entry code
      
         - Prevent kprobes on the entry trampoline code which lead to kernel
           crashes when the probe hits before CR3 is updated
      
         - Don't check microcode versions when running on hypervisors as they
           are considered as lying anyway.
      
         - Fix the 32bit objtool build and a coment typo"

      dmaengine: mv_xor_v2: Fix clock resource by adding a register clock · 3cd2c313
      Gregory CLEMENT authored
      On the CP110 components which are present on the Armada 7K/8K SoC we need
      to explicitly enable the clock for the registers. However it is not
      needed for the AP8xx component, that's why this clock is optional.
      
      With this patch both clock have now a name, but in order to be backward
      compatible, the name of the first clock is not used. It allows to still
      use this clock with a device tree using the old binding.

      Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:
      
       - Fix an uninitialized variable false warning in dm bufio
      
       - Fix DM's passthrough ioctl support to be race free against an
         underlying device being removed.
      
       - Fix corner-case of DM raid resync reporting if/when the raid becomes
         degraded during resync; otherwise automated raid repair will fail.
      
       - A few DM multipath fixes to make non-SCSI optimizations, that were
         introduced during the 4.16 merge, useful for all non-SCSI devices,
         rather than narrowly define this non-SCSI mode in terms of "nvme".
      
         This allows the removal of "queue_mode nvme" that really didn't need
         to be introduced. Instead DM core will internalize whether
         nvme-specific IO submission optimizations are doable and DM multipath
         will only do SCSI-specific device handler operations if SCSI is in
         use.

         from bugs under load to bad error case handling

         machine hard lock situation
      
       - A few core bugs on error paths
      
       - A patch to reduce stack usage in the new CQ API
      
       - One mlx5 regression introduced in this merge window
      
       - There were new syzkaller scripts written for the RDMA subsystem and
         we are fixing issues found by the bot
      
       - One of the commits (aa0de36a “RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow
         while resizing CQ”) is missing part of the commit log message and one
         of the SOB lines. The original patch was from Leon Romanovsky, and a
         cut-n-paste separator in the commit message confused patchworks which
         then put the end of message separator in the wrong place in the
         downloaded patch, and I didn’t notice in time. The patch made it into
         the official branch, and the only way to fix it in-place was to
         rebase. Given the pain that a rebase causes, and the fact that the
         patch has relevant tags for stable and syzkaller, a revert of the
         munged patch and a reapplication of the original patch with the log
         message intact was done.

      Pull Documentation build fix from Jonathan Corbet:
       "The Sphinx 1.7 release broke the build process for reasons that are
        mostly our fault.
      
        This is a single fix cherry-picked from docs-next that restores docs
        buildability for all supported Sphinx versions"

      lib/test_kmod.c: fix limit check on number of test devices created · ac68b1b3

      As reported by Dan the parentheses is in the wrong place, and since
      unlikely() call returns either 0 or 1 it's never less than zero.  The
      second issue is that signed integer overflows like "INT_MAX + 1" are
      undefined behavior.
      
      Since num_test_devs represents the number of devices, we want to stop
      prior to hitting the max, and not rely on the wrap arround at all.  So
      just cap at num_test_devs + 1, prior to assigning a new device.

      selftests/vm/run_vmtests: adjust hugetlb size according to nr_cpus · 0627be7d
      Li Zhijian authored
      Fix userfaultfd_hugetlb on hosts which have more than 64 cpus.
      
        ---------------------------
        running userfaultfd_hugetlb
        ---------------------------
        invalid MiB
        Usage: <MiB> <bounces>
        [FAIL]
      
      Via userfaultfd.c we can know, hugetlb_size needs to meet hugetlb_size
      >= nr_cpus * hugepage_size.  hugepage_size is often 2M, so when host
      cpus > 64, it requires more than 128M.
