Add a simple infrastructure for setting, resetting and querying
platform feature flags.

Flags can be either global or architecture specific.

 - Support for the Svpbmt extension, which allows memory attributes to
   be encoded in pages

 - Support for the Allwinner D1's implementation of page-based memory
   attributes

 - Support for running rv32 binaries on rv64 systems, via the compat
   subsystem

 - Support for kexec_file()

 "Almost all of MM here. A few things are still getting finished off,
  reviewed, etc.

   - Yang Shi has improved the behaviour of khugepaged collapsing of
     readonly file-backed transparent hugepages.

     runtime enablement of the recent huge page vmemmap optimization
     feature.

     pagetable invalidation.

     against shmem- and hugetlbfs-backed files.

   - More DAMON development from SeongJae Park - adding online tuning of
     the feature and support for monitoring of fixed virtual address
     ranges. Also easier discovery of which monitoring operations are
     available.

   - Nadav Amit has done some optimization of TLB flushing during
     mprotect().

     support.

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "The asm-generic tree contains three separate changes for linux-5.19:

   - The h8300 architecture is retired after it has been effectively
     unmaintained for a number of years. This is the last architecture
     we supported that has no MMU implementation, but there are still a
     few architectures (arm, m68k, riscv, sh and xtensa) that support
     CPUs with and without an MMU.

   - A series to add a generic ticket spinlock that can be shared by
     most architectures with a working cmpxchg or ll/sc type atomic,
     including the conversion of riscv, csky and openrisc. This series
     is also a prerequisite for the loongarch64 architecture port that
     will come as a separate pull request.

   - A cleanup of some exported uapi header files to ensure they can be
     included from user space without relying on other kernel headers"

<content type='text'>
include/{linux,asm-generic}/export.h defines a weak symbol, __crc_*
as a placeholder.

Genksyms writes the version CRCs into the linker script, which will be
used for filling the __crc_* symbols. The linker script format depends
on CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS. If it is enabled, __crc_* holds the offset
to the reference of CRC.

It is time to get rid of this complexity.

Now that modpost parses text files (.*.cmd) to collect all the CRCs,
it can generate C code that will be linked to the vmlinux or modules.

Generate a new C file, .vmlinux.export.c, which contains the CRCs of
symbols exported by vmlinux. It is compiled and linked to vmlinux in
scripts/link-vmlinux.sh.

Put the CRCs of symbols exported by modules into the existing *.mod.c
files. No additional build step is needed for modules. As before,
*.mod.c are compiled and linked to *.ko in scripts/Makefile.modfinal.

No linker magic is used here. The new C implementation works in the
same way, whether CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled or not.
CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is no longer needed.

Previously, Kbuild invoked additional $(LD) to update the CRCs in
objects, but this step is unneeded too.

asm-generic: New generic ticket-based spinlock

This contains a new ticket-based spinlock that uses only generic
atomics and doesn't require as much from the memory system as qspinlock
does in order to be fair.  It also includes a bit of documentation about
the qspinlock and qrwlock fairness requirements.

This will soon be used by a handful of architectures that don't meet the
qspinlock requirements.

Because GCC-12 is fully stupid about array bounds and it's just really
hard to get a solid array definition from a linker script, flip the
array order to avoid needing negative offsets :-/

This makes the whole relational pointer magic a little less obvious, but
alas.
