This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

kmsan_free_page() is called by the page allocator's free_pages_prepare()
during page freeing. Its job is to poison all the memory covered by the
page. It can be called with an order-0 page, a compound high-order page
or a non-compound high-order page. But page_size() only works for order-0
and compound pages. For a non-compound high-order page it will
incorrectly return PAGE_SIZE.
The implication is that the tail pages of a high-order non-compound page
do not get poisoned at free, so any invalid access while they are free
could go unnoticed. It looks like the pages will be poisoned again at
allocation time, so that would bookend the window.
Fix this by using the order parameter to calculate the size.

kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush() allocates its temp s_pages/o_pages arrays
with GFP_KERNEL, which may sleep. This is inconsistent with vmalloc() as
it will support non-blocking requests later.
Plumb gfp_mask through the kmsan_vmap_pages_range_noflush(), so it can use
it internally for its demand.
Please note, the subsequent __vmap_pages_range_noflush() still uses
GFP_KERNEL and can sleep. If a caller runs under reclaim constraints,
sleeping is forbidden, it must establish the appropriate memalloc scope
API.

dma-mapping: fix direction in dma_alloc direction traces
kmsan: fix kmsan_handle_dma() to avoid false positives
Pull dma-mapping updates from Marek Szyprowski:
- Refactoring of DMA mapping API to physical addresses as the primary
interface instead of page+offset parameters
This gets much closer to Matthew Wilcox's long term wish for
struct-pageless IO to cacheable DRAM and is supporting memdesc
project which seeks to substantially transform how struct page works.
An advantage of this approach is the possibility of introducing
DMA_ATTR_MMIO, which covers existing 'dma_map_resource' flow in the
common paths, what in turn lets to use recently introduced
dma_iova_link() API to map PCI P2P MMIO without creating struct page

is a false positive caused by the way the virtual address is handled
in kmsan_handle_dma(). Fix it by translating the physical address to
a virtual address using phys_to_virt().

This occurs when memset() is called on a buffer that is not 4-byte aligned
and extends to the end of a guard page, i.e. the next page is unmapped.
The bug is that the loop at the end of kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin()
accesses the wrong shadow memory bytes when the address is not 4-byte
aligned. Since each 4 bytes are associated with an origin, it rounds the
address and size so that it can access all the origins that contain the
buffer. However, when it checks the corresponding shadow bytes for a
particular origin, it incorrectly uses the original unrounded shadow
address. This results in reads from shadow memory beyond the end of the
buffer's shadow memory, which crashes when that memory is not mapped.
To fix this, correctly align the shadow address before accessing the 4
shadow bytes corresponding to each origin.
