Pull io_uring thread rewrite from Jens Axboe:
 "This converts the io-wq workers to be forked off the tasks in question
  instead of being kernel threads that assume various bits of the
  original task identity.

  This kills > 400 lines of code from io_uring/io-wq, and it's the worst
  part of the code. We've had several bugs in this area, and the worry
  is always that we could be missing some pieces for file types doing
  unusual things (recent /dev/tty example comes to mind, userfaultfd
  reads installing file descriptors is another fun one... - both of
  which need special handling, and I bet it's not the last weird oddity
  we'll find).

  With these identical workers, we can have full confidence that we're
  never missing anything. That, in itself, is a huge win. Outside of
  that, it's also more efficient since we're not wasting space and code
  on tracking state, or switching between different states.

  I'm sure we're go...

this is not too helpful to understand what happened, so let's wrap the

understanding the memory conditions leading to these allocation failures.

Since GCC 8.0 -fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow doesn't work with
-fwrapv.  -fwrapv makes signed overflows defines and GCC essentially
disables ubsan checks.  On GCC < 8.0 -fwrapv doesn't have influence on
-fsanitize=signed-integer-overflow setting, so it kinda works but
generates false-positves and violates uaccess rules:

lib/iov_iter.o: warning: objtool: iovec_from_user()+0x22d: call to
__ubsan_handle_add_overflow() with UACCESS enabled

Disable signed overflow checks to avoid these problems.  Remove unsigned
overflow checks as well.  Unsigned overflow appeared as side effect of
commit cdf8a76f ("ubsan: move cc-option tests into Kconfig"), but it
never worked (kernel doesn't boot).  And unsigned overflows are allowed by
C standard, so it just pointless.

The memtype seq_file iterator allocates a buffer in the ->start and ->next
functions and frees it in the ->show function.  The preferred handling for
such resources is to free them in the subsequent ->next or ->stop function
call.

Since Commit 1f4aace6 ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration
code and interface") there is no guarantee that ->show will be called
after ->next, so this function can now leak memory.

So move the freeing of the buffer to ->next and ->stop.

Patch series "Fix some seq_file users that were recently broken".

A recent change to seq_file broke some users which were using seq_file
in a non-"standard" way ...  though the "standard" isn't documented, so
they can be excused.  The result is a possible leak - of memory in one
case, of references to a 'transport' in the other.

These three patches:
 1/ document and explain the problem
 2/ fix the problem user in x86
 3/ fix the problem user in net/sctp

This patch (of 3):

Users of seq_file will sometimes find it convenient to take a resource,
such as a lock or memory allocation, in the ->start or ->next operations.
These are per-entry resources, distinct from per-session resources which
are taken in ->start and released in ->stop.

The preferred management of these is release the resource on the
subsequent call to ->next or ->stop.

However prior to Commit 1f4aace6 ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file
iteration code and interface") it happened that ->show would always be
called after ->start or ->next, and a few users chose to release the
resource in ->show.

This is no longer reliable.  Since the mentioned commit, ->next will
always come after a successful ->show (to ensure m->index is updated
correctly), so the original ordering cannot be maintained.

This patch updates the documentation to clearly state the required
behaviour.  Other patches will fix the few problematic users.

In dump_user_range() there is no reason for the mapping to be global.  Use

This code hunk creates a Version_<LINUX_VERSION_CODE> symbol if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is disabled.  For example, building the kernel v5.10 for
allnoconfig creates the following symbol:

  $ nm vmlinux | grep Version_
  c116b028 B Version_330240

There is no in-tree user of this symbol.

Commit 197dcffc ("init/version.c: define version_string only if
CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not defined") mentions that Version_* is only used
with ksymoops.

However, a commit in the pre-git era [1] had added the statement,
"ksymoops is useless on 2.6.  Please use the Oops in its original format".

That statement existed until commit 4eb92411 ("Documentation:
admin-guide: update bug-hunting.rst") finally removed the stale
ksymoops information.

This symbol is no longer needed.

objtool requires that all code must be contained in an ELF symbol.  Symbol
names that have a '.L' prefix do not emit symbol table entries, as they
have special meaning for the assembler.

'.L' prefixed symbols can be used within a code region, but should be
avoided for denoting a range of code via 'SYM_*_START/END' annotations.

Add a new check to emit a warning on finding the usage of '.L' symbols for
'.S' files, if it denotes range of code via SYM_*_START/END annotation
pair.

Some max_length wants to hold as large room as possible to ensure enough
size to tackle with the biggest NR_CPUS.  An example below:

kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c:
static struct cftype legacy_files[] = {
        {
                .name = "cpus",
                .seq_show = cpuset_common_seq_show,
                .write = cpuset_write_resmask,
                .max_write_len = (100U + 6 * NR_CPUS),
                .private = FILE_CPULIST,
        },
	...
}

Avoid multiple false positives by ignoring attributes.

Various attributes like volatile and ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp cause
checkpatch to emit invalid "Missing a blank line after declarations"
messages.

Use copies of $sline and $prevline, remove $Attribute and $Sparse, and use
the existing tests to avoid these false positives.

Miscellanea:

o Add volatile to $Attribute

This also reduces checkpatch runtime a bit by moving the indentation
comparison test to the start of the block to avoid multiple unnecessary
regex tests.
