Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core code:
- Interrupt storm detection for the lockup watchdog:
Lockups which are caused by interrupt storms are not easy to debug
because there is no information about the events which make the
lockup detector trigger.
To make this more user friendly, provide an extenstion to interrupt
statistics which allows to take snapshots and an interface to
retrieve the delta to the snapshot. Use this new mechanism in the
watchdog code to do a two stage lockup analysis by taking the
snapshot and printing the deltas for the topmost active interrupts
on the second trigger.
Note: This contains both the interrupt and the watchdog changes as
the latter depend on the former obviously.
- Avoid summation loops in the /proc/interrupts output and use the
global counter when possible
- Skip suspended interrupts on CPU hotplug operations to ensure that
they are not delivered before the system resumes the device drivers
when coming out of suspend.
- On CPU hot-unplug interrupts which are affine to the outgoing CPU
are migrated to a different CPU in the affinity mask. This can fail
when the CPUs have no vectors left. Instead of giving up try to
migrate it to any online CPU and thereby breaking the affinity
setting in order to prevent a stale device interrupt which targets
an offline CPU
- The usual small cleanups
Driver code:
- Support for the RISCV AIA MSI controller
- Make the interrupt allocation for the Loongson PCH controller more
flexible to prevent vector exhaustion
- The usual set of cleanups and fixes all over the place"

Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"The bulk of the changes here are related to refactoring and expanding
the KUnit tests for string helper and fortify behavior.
Some trivial strncpy replacements in fs/ were carried in my tree. Also
some fixes to SCSI string handling were carried in my tree since the
helper for those was introduce here. Beyond that, just little fixes
all around: objtool getting confused about LKDTM+KCFI, preparing for
future refactors (constification of sysctl tables, additional
__counted_by annotations), a Clang UBSAN+i386 crash fix, and adding
more options in the hardening.config Kconfig fragment.

The test now is limited to be compiled as a module. There's no technical
reason for it. Now that the test bears some performance benchmarks, it
would be reasonable to run it at kernel load time, before userspace
starts, to reduce possible jitter.

The following softlockup is caused by interrupt storm, but it cannot be
identified from the call tree. Because the call tree is just a snapshot
and doesn't fully capture the behavior of the CPU during the soft lockup.
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#28 stuck for 23s! [fio:83921]
...
Call trace:
__do_softirq+0xa0/0x37c
__irq_exit_rcu+0x108/0x140
irq_exit+0x14/0x20
__handle_domain_irq+0x84/0xe0
gic_handle_irq+0x80/0x108
el0_irq_naked+0x50/0x58
Therefore, it is necessary to report CPU utilization during the
softlockup_threshold period (report once every sample_period, for a total
of 5 reportings), like this:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#28 stuck for 23s! [fio:83921]
CPU#28 Utilization every 4s during lockup:
#1: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
#2: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
#3: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
#4: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
#5: 0% system, 0% softirq, 100% hardirq, 0% idle
...
This is helpful in determining whether an interrupt storm has occurred or
in identifying the cause of the softlockup. The criteria for determination
are as follows:
a. If the hardirq utilization is high, then interrupt storm should be
considered and the root cause cannot be determined from the call tree.
b. If the softirq utilization is high, then the call might not necessarily
point at the root cause.
c. If the system utilization is high, then analyzing the root
cause from the call tree is possible in most cases.
The mechanism requires a considerable amount of global storage space
when configured for the maximum number of CPUs. Therefore, adding a
SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR_INTR_STORM Kconfig knob that defaults to "yes"
if the max number of CPUs is <= 128.

fat: fix uninitialized field in nostale filehandles
...
Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"As is pretty normal for this tree, there are changes all over the
place, especially for small fixes, selftest improvements, and improved
macro usability.
Some header changes ended up landing via this tree as they depended on
the string header cleanups. Also, a notable set of changes is the work
for the reintroduction of the UBSAN signed integer overflow sanitizer
so that we can continue to make improvements on the compiler side to
make this sanitizer a more viable future security hardening option.
Summary:
- string.h and related header cleanups (Tanzir Hasan, Andy
Shevchenko)
- VMCI memcpy() usage and struct_size() cleanups (Vasiliy Kovalev,
Harshit Mogalapalli)
- selftests/powerpc: Fix load_unaligned_zeropad build failure
(Michael Ellerman)
- hardened Kconfig fragment updates (Marco Elver, Lukas Bulwahn)
- Handle tail call optimization better in LKDTM (Douglas Anderson)
- Use long form types in overflow.h (Andy Shevchenko)
- Add flags param to string_get_size() (Andy Shevchenko)
- Add Coccinelle script for potential struct_size() use (Jacob
Keller)
- Fix objtool corner case under KCFI (Josh Poimboeuf)
- Drop 13 year old backward compat CAP_SYS_ADMIN check (Jingzi Meng)
- Add str_plural() helper (Michal Wajdeczko, Kees Cook)
- Ignore relocations in .notes section
- Add comments to explain how __is_constexpr() works
- Fix m68k stack alignment expectations in stackinit Kunit test
- Convert string selftests to KUnit
- Add KUnit tests for fortified string functions
- Improve reporting during fortified string warnings
- Allow non-type arg to type_max() and type_min()
- Allow strscpy() to be called with only 2 arguments
- Add binary mode to leaking_addresses scanner
- Various small cleanups to leaking_addresses scanner
- Adding wrapping_*() arithmetic helper
- Annotate initial signed integer wrap-around in refcount_t
- Add explicit UBSAN section to MAINTAINERS
- Fix UBSAN self-test warnings
- Simplify UBSAN build via removal of CONFIG_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL
- Reintroduce UBSAN's signed overflow sanitizer"
