Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Generic interrupt and irqchips subsystem updates. Unusually, there is
  not a single completely new irq chip driver, just new DT bindings and
  extensions of existing drivers to accomodate new variants!

  Core:

   - Consolidation and robustness changes for irq time accounting

   - Cleanup and consolidation of irq stats

   - Remove the fasteoi IPI flow which has been proved useless

   - Provide an interface for converting legacy interrupt mechanism into
     irqdomains

  Drivers:

   - Preliminary support for managed interrupts on platform devices

   - Correctly identify allocation of MSIs proxyied by another device

   - Generalise the Ocelot support to new SoCs

   - Improve GICv4.1 vcpu entry, matching the corresponding KVM
     optimisation

   - Work around spurious interrupts on Qualcomm PDC

   - Random fixes and cleanups"

a9bed1e1c2 selftests/vm: only some gup_test items are really benchmarks
Therefore, some minor cleanup and improvements are in order:

1. Rename the other items appropriately.

2. Stop reporting timing information on the non-benchmark items. It's
   still being recorded and is available, but there's no point in
   cluttering up the report with data that no one reasonably needs to
   check.

3. Don't do iterations, for non-benchmark items.

4. Print out a shorter, more appropriate report for the non-benchmark
   tests.

5. Add the command that was run, to the report. This really helps, as
   there are quite a lot of options now.

6. Use a larger integer type for cmd, now that it's being compared
   Otherwise it doesn't work, because in this case cmd is about 3 billion,
   which is the perfect size for problems with signed vs unsigned int.

9c84f22926 mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3.

Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller
supporting goodies.  The two main points are:

1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version
   of gup_benchmark.  This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(),
   at least on user-space pages.

   For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I
   wanted to try out changes to dump_page().  Then Matthew Wilcox asked me
   what I meant when I said "I used my dump_page() unit test", and I
   realized that it might be nice to check in a polished up version of
   that.

   Details about how it works and how to use it are in the commit
   description for patch #6 ("selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the
   dump_pages() sub-test").

2) Fixes a limitation of hmm-tests: these tests are incredibly useful,
   but only if people actually build and run them.  And it turns out that
   libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the
   works, there.  So I've added a little configuration check that removes
   just two of the 21 hmm-tests, if libhugetlbfs is not available.

   Further details in the commit description of patch #8
   ("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs dependency").

Other smaller things that this series does:

a) Remove code duplication by creating gup_test.h.

b) Clear up the sub-test organization, and their invocation within
   run_vmtests.sh.

c) Other minor assorted improvements.

[1] v2 is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20200929212747.251804-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com/

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=wgh-TMPHLY3jueHX7Y2fWh3D+nMBqVS__AZm6-oorquWA@mail.gmail.com

This patch (of 9):

Rename nearly every "gup_benchmark" reference and file name to "gup_test".
The one exception is for the actual gup benchmark test itself.

The current code already does a *little* bit more than benchmarking, and
definitely covers more than get_user_pages_fast().  More importantly,
however, subsequent patches are about to add some functionality that is
non-benchmark related.

Closely related changes:

* Kconfig: in addition to renaming the options from GUP_BENCHMARK to
  GUP_TEST, update the help text to reflect that it's no longer a
  benchmark-only test.

f0dbd2bd1c mm: slab: provide krealloc_array()
When allocating an array of elements, users should check for
multiplication overflow or preferably use one of the provided helpers
like: kmalloc_array().

There's no krealloc_array() counterpart but there are many users who use
regular krealloc() to reallocate arrays.  Let's provide an actual
krealloc_array() implementation.

While at it: add some documentation regarding krealloc.

Pull documentation updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
  This includes:

   - kernel-doc markup fixes

   - ReST fixes

   - Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of

  After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
  significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
  supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).

  As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
  end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
  as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
  that should be happening along the merge window.

  The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.

  PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
  as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
  order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
  Sphinx 3.1"

8fc75643c5 XArray: add xas_split
In order to use multi-index entries for huge pages in the page cache, we
need to be able to split a multi-index entry (eg if a file is truncated in
the middle of a huge page entry).  This version does not support splitting
more than one level of the tree at a time.  This is an acceptable
limitation for the page cache as we do not expect to support order-12
pages in the near future.

0d71675f87 dma-mapping: add a new dma_alloc_noncoherent API
Add a new API to allocate and free memory that is guaranteed to be
addressable by a device, but which potentially is not cache coherent
for DMA.

To transfer ownership to and from the device, the existing streaming
DMA API calls dma_sync_single_for_device and dma_sync_single_for_cpu
must be used.

For now the new calls are implemented on top of dma_alloc_attrs just
like the old-noncoherent API, but once all drivers are switched to
the new API it will be replaced with a better working implementation
that is available on all architectures.

25d8d4eeca Merge tag 'powerpc-5.9-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.

 - Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on
   Power9 or later.

 - Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be
   unsupported on Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way
   to implement the functionality it requests. This risks breaking
   userspace, though we believe it is unused in practice.

 - A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion
   checking. We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other
   architectures.

 - Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update
   code, which tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised
   systems, but was prone to crashes and other problems.

 - Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.

 - A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link
   stack (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.

 - Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as
   usual.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "It's been a busy cycle for documentation - hopefully the busiest for a
  while to come. Changes include:

   - Some new Chinese translations

   - Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS
     URLs

   - Some block-mq documentation

   - More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is
     essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again
     for a while. Unless we decide to switch to asciidoc or
     something...:)

   - Lots of typo fixes, warning fixes, and more"
