Merge tag 'mm-stable-2023-06-24-19-15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton: - Yosry Ahmed brought back some cgroup v1 stats in OOM logs - Yosry has also eliminated cgroup's atomic rstat flushing - Nhat Pham adds the new cachestat() syscall. It provides userspace with the ability to query pagecache status - a similar concept to mincore() but more powerful and with improved usability - Mel Gorman provides more optimizations for compaction, reducing the prevalence of page rescanning - Lorenzo Stoakes has done some maintanance work on the get_user_pages() interface - Liam Howlett continues with cleanups and maintenance work to the maple tree code. Peng Zhang also does some work on maple tree - Johannes Weiner has done some cleanup work on the compaction code - David Hildenbrand has contributed additional selftests for get_user_pages() - Thomas Gleixner has contributed some maintenance and optimization work for the vmalloc code - Baolin Wang has provided some compaction cleanups, - SeongJae Park continues maintenance work on the DAMON code - Huang Ying has done some maintenance on the swap code's usage of device refcounting - Christoph Hellwig has some cleanups for the filemap/directio code - Ryan Roberts provides two patch series which yield some rationalization of the kernel's access to pte entries - use the provided APIs rather than open-coding accesses - Lorenzo Stoakes has some fixes to the interaction between pagecache and directio access to file mappings - John Hubbard has a series of fixes to the MM selftesting code - ZhangPeng continues the folio conversion campaign - Hugh Dickins has been working on the pagetable handling code, mainly with a view to reducing the load on the mmap_lock - Catalin Marinas has reduced the arm64 kmalloc() minimum alignment from 128 to 8 - Domenico Cerasuolo has improved the zswap reclaim mechanism by reorganizing the LRU management - Matthew Wilcox provides some fixups to make gfs2 work better with the buffer_head code - Vishal Moola also has done some folio conversion work - Matthew Wilcox has removed the remnants of the pagevec code - their functionality is migrated over to struct folio_batch * tag 'mm-stable-2023-06-24-19-15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (380 commits) mm/hugetlb: remove hugetlb_set_page_subpool() mm: nommu: correct the range of mmap_sem_read_lock in task_mem() hugetlb: revert use of page_cache_next_miss() Revert "page cache: fix page_cache_next/prev_miss off by one" mm/vmscan: fix root proactive reclaim unthrottling unbalanced node mm: memcg: rename and document global_reclaim() mm: kill [add|del]_page_to_lru_list() mm: compaction: convert to use a folio in isolate_migratepages_block() mm: zswap: fix double invalidate with exclusive loads mm: remove unnecessary pagevec includes mm: remove references to pagevec mm: rename invalidate_mapping_pagevec to mapping_try_invalidate mm: remove struct pagevec net: convert sunrpc from pagevec to folio_batch i915: convert i915_gpu_error to use a folio_batch pagevec: rename fbatch_count() mm: remove check_move_unevictable_pages() drm: convert drm_gem_put_pages() to use a folio_batch i915: convert shmem_sg_free_table() to use a folio_batch scatterlist: add sg_set_folio() ...
