Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.

I never knew the MM code was so dirty.

"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.

"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.

"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.

"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.

"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.

"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.

"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.

"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.

"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().

"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.

"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.

"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.

"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.

"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.

"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.

"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.

"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.

"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.

"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.

"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.

"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.

"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.

"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.

"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.

"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.

"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.

"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.

"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.

"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.

"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.

"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.

"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.

"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().

"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.

"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.

"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.

"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.

"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!

"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.

"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.

"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.

"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

mm: change vm_get_page_prot() to accept vm_flags_t argument

Patch series "use vm_flags_t consistently".

The VMA flags field vma->vm_flags is of type vm_flags_t. Right now this
is exactly equivalent to unsigned long, but it should not be assumed to
be.

Much code that references vma->vm_flags already correctly uses vm_flags_t,
but a fairly large chunk of code simply uses unsigned long and assumes
that the two are equivalent.

This series corrects that and has us use vm_flags_t consistently.

This series is motivated by the desire to, in a future series, adjust
vm_flags_t to be a u64 regardless of whether the kernel is 32-bit or
64-bit in order to deal with the VMA flag exhaustion issue and avoid all
the various problems that arise from it (being unable to use certain
features in 32-bit, being unable to add new flags except for 64-bit, etc.)

This is therefore a critical first step towards that goal. At any rate,
using the correct type is of value regardless.

We additionally take the opportunity to refer to VMA flags as vm_flags
where possible to make clear what we're referring to.

Overall, this series does not introduce any functional change.


This patch (of 3):

We abstract the type of the VMA flags to vm_flags_t, however in may places
it is simply assumed this is unsigned long, which is simply incorrect.

At the moment this is simply an incongruity, however in future we plan to
change this type and therefore this change is a critical requirement for
doing so.

Overall, this patch does not introduce any functional change.

"Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.

Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
other minor patch series being held over for next time.

Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
into 6.1-rc1.

Lin, Yang Shi, Anshuman Khandual and Mike Rapoport

- Some kmemleak fixes from Patrick Wang and Waiman Long

- DAMON updates from SeongJae Park

- memcg debug/visibility work from Roman Gushchin

- vmalloc speedup from Uladzislau Rezki

- more folio conversion work from Matthew Wilcox

- enhancements for coherent device memory mapping from Alex Sierra

- addition of shared pages tracking and CoW support for fsdax, from

- hugetlb optimizations from Mike Kravetz

- Mel Gorman has contributed some pagealloc changes to improve
latency and realtime behaviour.

- mprotect soft-dirty checking has been improved by Peter Xu

- Many other singleton patches all over the place"
