ba20ba2e37 generic radix trees
Very simple radix tree implementation that supports storing arbitrary
size entries, up to PAGE_SIZE - upcoming patches will convert existing
flex_array users to genradixes.  The new genradix code has a much
simpler API and implementation, and doesn't have a hard limit on the
number of elements like flex_array does.

Merge tag 'xarray-5.1-rc1' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax

Pull XArray updates from Matthew Wilcox:
 "This pull request changes the xa_alloc() API. I'm only aware of one
  subsystem that has started trying to use it, and we agree on the fixup
  as part of the merge.

  The xa_insert() error code also changed to match xa_alloc() (EEXIST to
  EBUSY), and I added xa_alloc_cyclic(). Beyond that, the usual
  bugfixes, optimisations and tweaking.

  I now have a git tree with all users of the radix tree and IDR
  converted over to the XArray that I'll be feeding to maintainers over
  the next few weeks"

2fa044e51a XArray: Add cyclic allocation
This differs slightly from the IDR equivalent in five ways.

1. It can allocate up to UINT_MAX instead of being limited to INT_MAX,
   like xa_alloc().  Also like xa_alloc(), it will write to the 'id'
   pointer before placing the entry in the XArray.
2. The 'next' cursor is allocated separately from the XArray instead
   of being part of the IDR.  This saves memory for all the users which
   do not use the cyclic allocation API and suits some users better.
3. It returns -EBUSY instead of -ENOSPC.
4. It will attempt to wrap back to the minimum value on memory allocation
   failure as well as on an -EBUSY error, assuming that a user would
   rather allocate a small ID than suffer an ID allocation failure.
5. It reports whether it has wrapped, which is important to some users.

3ccaf57a6a XArray: Add support for 1s-based allocation
A lot of places want to allocate IDs starting at 1 instead of 0.
While the xa_alloc() API supports this, it's not very efficient if lots
of IDs are allocated, due to having to walk down to the bottom of the
tree to see if ID 1 is available, then all the way over to the next
non-allocated ID.  This method marks ID 0 as being occupied which wastes
one slot in the XArray, but preserves xa_empty() as working.

fd9dc93e36 XArray: Change xa_insert to return -EBUSY

47b8f3ab9c refcount_t: Add ACQUIRE ordering on success for dec(sub)_and_test() variants
This adds an smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() barrier on successful
decrease of refcounter value from 1 to 0 for refcount_dec(sub)_and_test
variants and therefore gives stronger memory ordering guarantees than
prior versions of these functions.

The mm-api.rst covers variety of memory management APIs under "More Memory

random order there are quite a few of them which makes the section too
long.

Regrouping the documentation by subject and splitting the long "More Memory

806654a966 Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst"
Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:

  | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
  | formal, and "while" is the common word.
  |
  | [...]
  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
  | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
  | uses?

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

d9c480435a XArray: Handle NULL pointers differently for allocation
For allocating XArrays, it makes sense to distinguish beteen erasing an
entry and storing NULL.  Storing NULL keeps the index allocated with a
NULL pointer associated with it while xa_erase() frees the index.  Some
existing IDR users rely on this ability.

dad4f140ed Merge branch 'xarray' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax
Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
  structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
  at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
  more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
  its users.

  This patch set

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
  interested"

yielding an inconsistent result.

Remove all references to kobjects, as
  1. Device tree object pointers are not compatible to kobject pointers
     (the former may embed the latter, though), and
  2. there are no printk formats defined for kobject types.

ec12bc2909 lib/vsprintf: Hash legacy clock addresses
On platforms using the Common Clock Framework, "%pC" prints the clock's
name. On legacy platforms, it prints the unhashed clock's address,
potentially leaking sensitive information regarding the kernel layout in
memory.

Avoid this leak by printing the hashed address instead.  To distinguish
between clocks, a 32-bit unique identifier is as good as an actual
pointer value.

than admin/user visible API. Place it appropriately.

ad98b60237 docs/boot-time-mm: fix kernel-doc directive for including all but DOC:
There were several rounds of the patches that enabled "functions" directive
with no parameters in kerneldoc.py to allow including all the kernel-doc
comments except the DOC: sections.

Yet, the boot-time-mm.rst sneaked in with the older version of that
directive and was not updated. Update it now.
