Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Since commit 75c7940d2a ("lockd: set missing fl_flags field when
retrieving args"), nlmsvc_retrieve_args() initializes the flc_flags
field. svcxdr_decode_lock() no longer needs to do this.
This clean up removes one dependency on the nlm_lock:fl field. No
behavior change is expected.
Analysis:
svcxdr_decode_lock() is called by:
nlm4svc_decode_testargs()
nlm4svc_decode_lockargs()
nlm4svc_decode_cancargs()
nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs()
nlm4svc_decode_testargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_TEST and NLMPROC4_TEST_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_GRANTED and NLMPROC4_GRANTED_MSG, which don't pass the
lock's file_lock to the generic lock API
nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_LOCK and NLM4PROC4_LOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLM4PROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
- NLMPROC4_NM_LOCK, which calls nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_CANCEL and NLMPROC4_CANCEL_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() is used by:
- NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLMPROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args()
All callers except GRANTED/GRANTED_MSG eventually call
nlmsvc_retrieve_args() before using nlm_lock::fl.c.flc_flags. Thus
this change is safe.

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Features:
- Fixup and improve NLM and kNFSD file lock callbacks
Last year both GFS2 and OCFS2 had some work done to make their
locking more robust when exported over NFS. Unfortunately, part of
that work caused both NLM (for NFS v3 exports) and kNFSD (for
NFSv4.1+ exports) to no longer send lock notifications to clients
This in itself is not a huge problem because most NFS clients will
still poll the server in order to acquire a conflicted lock
It's important for NLM and kNFSD that they do not block their
kernel threads inside filesystem's file_lock implementations
because that can produce deadlocks. We used to make sure of this by
only trusting that posix_lock_file() can correctly handle blocking
lock calls asynchronously, so the lock managers would only setup
their file_lock requests for async callbacks if the filesystem did
not define its own lock() file operation
However, when GFS2 and OCFS2 grew the capability to correctly
handle blocking lock requests asynchronously, they started
signalling this behavior with EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK, and the check
for also trusting posix_lock_file() was inadvertently dropped, so
now most filesystems no longer produce lock notifications when
exported over NFS
Fix this by using an fop_flag which greatly simplifies the problem
and grooms the way for future uses by both filesystems and lock
managers alike
- Add a sysctl to delete the dentry when a file is removed instead of
making it a negative dentry
Commit 681ce86235 ("vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file") introduced an unconditional deletion of the
associated dentry when a file is removed. However, this led to
performance regressions in specific benchmarks, such as
ilebench.sum_operations/s, prompting a revert in commit
4a4be1ad3a ("Revert "vfs: Delete the associated dentry when
deleting a file""). This reintroduces the concept conditionally
through a sysctl
- Expand the statmount() system call:
* Report the filesystem subtype in a new fs_subtype field to
e.g., report fuse filesystem subtypes
* Report the superblock source in a new sb_source field
* Add a new way to return filesystem specific mount options in an
option array that returns filesystem specific mount options
separated by zero bytes and unescaped. This allows caller's to
retrieve filesystem specific mount options and immediately pass
them to e.g., fsconfig() without having to unescape or split
them
* Report security (LSM) specific mount options in a separate
security option array. We don't lump them together with
filesystem specific mount options as security mount options are
generic and most users aren't interested in them
The format is the same as for the filesystem specific mount
option array
- Support relative paths in fsconfig()'s FSCONFIG_SET_STRING command
- Optimize acl_permission_check() to avoid costly {g,u}id ownership
checks if possible
- Use smp_mb__after_spinlock() to avoid full smp_mb() in evict()
- Add synchronous wakeup support for ep_poll_callback.
Currently, epoll only uses wake_up() to wake up task. But sometimes
there are epoll users which want to use the synchronous wakeup flag
to give a hint to the scheduler, e.g., the Android binder driver.
So add a wake_up_sync() define, and use wake_up_sync() when sync is
true in ep_poll_callback()
Fixes:
- Fix kernel documentation for inode_insert5() and iget5_locked()
- Annotate racy epoll check on file->f_ep
- Make F_DUPFD_QUERY associative
- Avoid filename buffer overrun in initramfs
- Don't let statmount() return empty strings
- Add a cond_resched() to dump_user_range() to avoid hogging the CPU
- Don't query the device logical blocksize multiple times for hfsplus
- Make filemap_read() check that the offset is positive or zero
Cleanups:
- Various typo fixes
- Cleanup wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode()
- Add __releases annotation to wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode()

If an svc thread needs to perform some initialisation that might fail,
it has no good way to handle the failure.
Before the thread can exit it must call svc_exit_thread(), but that
requires the service mutex to be held. The thread cannot simply take
the mutex as that could deadlock if there is a concurrent attempt to
shut down all threads (which is unlikely, but not impossible).
nfsd currently call svc_exit_thread() unprotected in the unlikely event
that unshare_fs_struct() fails.
We can clean this up by introducing svc_thread_init_status() by which an
svc thread can report whether initialisation has succeeded. If it has,
it continues normally into the action loop. If it has not,
svc_thread_init_status() immediately aborts the thread.
svc_start_kthread() waits for either of these to happen, and calls
svc_exit_thread() (under the mutex) if the thread aborted.

nlmsvc_timeout always has the same value as (nlm_timeout * HZ), so use
that in the one place that nlmsvc_timeout is used.
In truth it *might* not always be the same as nlmsvc_timeout is only set
when lockd is started while nlm_timeout can be set at anytime via
sysctl. I think this difference it not helpful so removing it is good.
Also remove the test for nlm_timout being 0. This is not possible -
unless a module parameter is used to set the minimum timeout to 0, and
if that happens then it probably should be honoured.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work.
In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to
remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/
directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as
those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect
also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to
see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the
struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have
suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for
v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for
further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer

sv_refcnt is no longer useful.
lockd and nfs-cb only ever have the svc active when there are a non-zero
number of threads, so sv_refcnt mirrors sv_nrthreads.
nfsd also keeps the svc active between when a socket is added and when
the first thread is started, but we don't really need a refcount for
that. We can simply not destroy the svc while there are any permanent
sockets attached.
So remove sv_refcnt and the get/put functions.
Instead of a final call to svc_put(), call svc_destroy() instead.
This is changed to also store NULL in the passed-in pointer to make it
easier to avoid use-after-free situations.

svc threads are currently stopped using kthread_stop(). This requires
identifying a specific thread. However we don't care which thread
stops, just as long as one does.
So instead, set a flag in the svc_pool to say that a thread needs to
die, and have each thread check this flag instead of calling
kthread_should_stop(). The first thread to find and clear this flag
then moves towards exiting.
This removes an explicit dependency on sp_all_threads which will make a
