Merge tag 'v5.4-rc4' into docs-next

I need to pick up the independent changes made to
Documentation/core-api/memory-allocation.rst to be able to merge further
work without creating a total mess.

Software can "opt-in" to receiving VAs from a 52-bit space by
specifying an mmap hint parameter that is larger than 48-bit.
For example:
maybe_high_address = mmap(~0UL, size, prot, flags,...);
.. code-block:: c
maybe_high_address = mmap(~0UL, size, prot, flags,...);
It is also possible to build a debug kernel that returns addresses
from a 52-bit space by enabling the following kernel config options:
.. code-block:: sh
CONFIG_EXPERT=y && CONFIG_ARM64_FORCE_52BIT=y
Note that this option is only intended for debugging applications

The address of a chunk allocated with `kmalloc` is aligned to at least
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN bytes. For sizes which are a power of two, the
alignment is also guaranteed to be at least the respective size.
For large allocations you can use :c:func:`vmalloc` and
