Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
  slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of
  #ifdefs and all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or
  another.

  This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these
  cleanups going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this
  pull request, just cleanups.

  Thanks a lot to the Uniontech and Huawei folks for doing some of this
  nasty work"

a467257ffe kernel/kexec_core: move kexec_core sysctls into its own file
This move the kernel/kexec_core.c respective sysctls to its own file.

kernel/sysctl.c has grown to an insane mess, We move sysctls to places
where features actually belong to improve the readability and reduce
merge conflicts. At the same time, the proc-sysctl maintainers can easily
care about the core logic other than the sysctl knobs added for some feature.

We already moved all filesystem sysctls out. This patch is part of the effort
to move kexec related sysctls out.

The beginning of do_exit has become cluttered and difficult to read as
it is filled with checks to handle things that can only happen when

Now that we have a dedicated function for cleaning up a task when the

93d102f094 printk: remove safe buffers
With @logbuf_lock removed, the high level printk functions for
storing messages are lockless. Messages can be stored from any
context, so there is no need for the NMI and safe buffers anymore.
Remove the NMI and safe buffers.

Although the safe buffers are removed, the NMI and safe context
tracking is still in place. In these contexts, store the message
immediately but still use irq_work to defer the console printing.

Since printk recursion tracking is in place, safe context tracking
for most of printk is not needed. Remove it. Only safe context
tracking relating to the console and console_owner locks is left
in place. This is because the console and console_owner locks are
needed for the actual printing.

f39650de68 kernel.h: split out panic and oops helpers
kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and
oops helpers.

There are several purposes of doing this:
- dropping dependency in bug.h
- dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h
- unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain

At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for
the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

b2075dbb15 kexec: dump kmessage before machine_kexec
kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_SHUTDOWN) is called before machine_restart(),
machine_halt(), and machine_power_off().  The only one that is missing

The dmesg output that it contains can be used to study the shutdown
performance of both kernel and systemd during kexec reboot.

Here is example of dmesg data collected after kexec:

56c91a1843 kernel: kexec: remove the lock operation of system_transition_mutex
Function kernel_kexec() is called with lock system_transition_mutex
held in reboot system call. While inside kernel_kexec(), it will
acquire system_transition_mutex agin. This will lead to dead lock.

The dead lock should be easily triggered, it hasn't caused any
failure report just because the feature 'kexec jump' is almost not
used by anyone as far as I know. An inquiry can be made about who
is using 'kexec jump' and where it's used. Before that, let's simply
remove the lock operation inside CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP ifdeffery scope.

f2485a2dc9 elf_prstatus: collect the common part (everything before pr_reg) into a struct
Preparations to doing i386 compat elf_prstatus sanely - rather than duplicating
the beginning of compat_elf_prstatus, take these fields into a separate
structure (compat_elf_prstatus_common), so that it could be reused.  Due to
the incestous relationship between binfmt_elf.c and compat_binfmt_elf.c we
need the same shape change done to native struct elf_prstatus, gathering the
fields prior to pr_reg into a new structure (struct elf_prstatus_common).

Fortunately, offset of pr_reg is always a multiple of 16 with no padding
right before it, so it's possible to turn all the stuff prior to it into
a single member without disturbing the layout.

a24d22b225 crypto: sha - split sha.h into sha1.h and sha2.h
Currently <crypto/sha.h> contains declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2,
and <crypto/sha3.h> contains declarations for SHA-3.

This organization is inconsistent, but more importantly SHA-1 is no
longer considered to be cryptographically secure.  So to the extent
possible, SHA-1 shouldn't be grouped together with any of the other SHA
versions, and usage of it should be phased out.

Therefore, split <crypto/sha.h> into two headers <crypto/sha1.h> and
<crypto/sha2.h>, and make everyone explicitly specify whether they want
the declarations for SHA-1, SHA-2, or both.

This avoids making the SHA-1 declarations visible to files that don't
want anything to do with SHA-1.  It also prepares for potentially moving
sha1.h into a new insecure/ or dangerous/ directory.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things.  It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 It seemes better
to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic.  With the change,
preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing comes as a bonus.

This patch (of 4):

This is in preparation to a later patch which converts totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages to atomic variables.  Please note that re-reading the
value might lead to a different value and as such it could lead to
unexpected behavior.  There are no known bugs as a result of the current
code but it is better to prevent from them in principle.

9cf38d5559 kexec: Allocate decrypted control pages for kdump if SME is enabled
When SME is enabled in the first kernel, it needs to allocate decrypted
pages for kdump because when the kdump kernel boots, these pages need to
be accessed decrypted in the initial boot stage, before SME is enabled.
