Further perf/core patches will depend on:

  d3f7b1bb2040 ("mm/gup: fix gup_fast with dynamic page table folding")

which is already in Linus' tree.

+(a) value = 0; respective fallback tunnels are created when module is
+loaded in every net namespaces (backward compatible behavior).
+(b) value = 1; [kcmd value: initns] respective fallback tunnels are
+created only in init net namespace and every other net namespace will
+not have them.
+(c) value = 2; [kcmd value: none] fallback tunnels are not created
+when a module is loaded in any of the net namespace. Setting value to
+"2" is pointless after boot if these modules are built-in, so there is
+a kernel command-line option that can change this default. Please refer to
+Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt for additional details.

+Not creating fallback tunnels gives control to userspace to create
+whatever is needed only and avoid creating devices which are redundant.
