Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton: "Quite a lot of kexec work this time around. Many singleton patches in many places. The notable patch series are: - nilfs2 folio conversion from Matthew Wilcox in 'nilfs2: Folio conversions for file paths'. - Additional nilfs2 folio conversion from Ryusuke Konishi in 'nilfs2: Folio conversions for directory paths'. - IA64 remnant removal in Heiko Carstens's 'Remove unused code after IA-64 removal'. - Arnd Bergmann has enabled the -Wmissing-prototypes warning everywhere in 'Treewide: enable -Wmissing-prototypes'. This had some followup fixes: - Nathan Chancellor has cleaned up the hexagon build in the series 'hexagon: Fix up instances of -Wmissing-prototypes'. - Nathan also addressed some s390 warnings in 's390: A couple of fixes for -Wmissing-prototypes'. - Arnd Bergmann addresses the same warnings for MIPS in his series 'mips: address -Wmissing-prototypes warnings'. - Baoquan He has made kexec_file operate in a top-down-fitting manner similar to kexec_load in the series 'kexec_file: Load kernel at top of system RAM if required' - Baoquan He has also added the self-explanatory 'kexec_file: print out debugging message if required'. - Some checkstack maintenance work from Tiezhu Yang in the series 'Modify some code about checkstack'. - Douglas Anderson has disentangled the watchdog code's logging when multiple reports are occurring simultaneously. The series is 'watchdog: Better handling of concurrent lockups'. - Yuntao Wang has contributed some maintenance work on the crash code in 'crash: Some cleanups and fixes'" * tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2024-01-09-10-33' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (157 commits) crash_core: fix and simplify the logic of crash_exclude_mem_range() x86/crash: use SZ_1M macro instead of hardcoded value x86/crash: remove the unused image parameter from prepare_elf_headers() kdump: remove redundant DEFAULT_CRASH_KERNEL_LOW_SIZE scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: strip unexpected CR from lines watchdog: if panicking and we dumped everything, don't re-enable dumping watchdog/hardlockup: use printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() to serialize reporting watchdog/softlockup: use printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave() to serialize reporting watchdog/hardlockup: adopt softlockup logic avoiding double-dumps kexec_core: fix the assignment to kimage->control_page x86/kexec: fix incorrect end address passed to kernel_ident_mapping_init() lib/trace_readwrite.c:: replace asm-generic/io with linux/io nilfs2: cpfile: fix some kernel-doc warnings stacktrace: fix kernel-doc typo scripts/checkstack.pl: fix no space expression between sp and offset x86/kexec: fix incorrect argument passed to kexec_dprintk() x86/kexec: use pr_err() instead of kexec_dprintk() when an error occurs nilfs2: add missing set_freezable() for freezable kthread kernel: relay: remove relay_file_splice_read dead code, doesn't work docs: submit-checklist: remove all of "make namespacecheck" ...

+2.1 Mount options
+-----------------
+=================== =========================================================
+errors=%s Specify whether squashfs errors trigger a kernel panic
+ or not
+
+ ========== =============================================
+ continue errors don't trigger a panic (default)
+ panic trigger a panic when errors are encountered,
+ similar to several other filesystems (e.g.
+ btrfs, ext4, f2fs, GFS2, jfs, ntfs, ubifs)
+
+ This allows a kernel dump to be saved,
+ useful for analyzing and debugging the
+ corruption.
+ ========== =============================================
+threads=%s Select the decompression mode or the number of threads
+
+ If SQUASHFS_CHOICE_DECOMP_BY_MOUNT is set:
+
+ ========== =============================================
+ single use single-threaded decompression (default)
+
+ Only one block (data or metadata) can be
+ decompressed at any one time. This limits
+ CPU and memory usage to a minimum, but it
+ also gives poor performance on parallel I/O
+ workloads when using multiple CPU machines
+ due to waiting on decompressor availability.
+ multi use up to two parallel decompressors per core
+
+ If you have a parallel I/O workload and your
+ system has enough memory, using this option
+ may improve overall I/O performance. It
+ dynamically allocates decompressors on a
+ demand basis.
+ percpu use a maximum of one decompressor per core
+
+ It uses percpu variables to ensure
+ decompression is load-balanced across the
+ cores.
+ 1|2|3|... configure the number of threads used for
+ decompression
+
+ The upper limit is num_online_cpus() * 2.
+ ========== =============================================
+
+ If SQUASHFS_CHOICE_DECOMP_BY_MOUNT is **not** set and
+ SQUASHFS_DECOMP_MULTI, SQUASHFS_MOUNT_DECOMP_THREADS are
+ both set:
+
+ ========== =============================================
+ 2|3|... configure the number of threads used for
+ decompression
+
+ The upper limit is num_online_cpus() * 2.
