There's various scenarios where we need to know whether we are in the

All namespaces expose that information. Let's do that too.

For a while now we have supported file handles for pidfds. This has
proven to be very useful.
Extend the concept to cover namespaces as well. After this patchset it
is possible to encode and decode namespace file handles using the
commong name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() apis.
Namespaces file descriptors can already be derived from pidfds which
means they aren't subject to overmount protection bugs. IOW, it's
irrelevant if the caller would not have access to an appropriate
/proc/<pid>/ns/ directory as they could always just derive the namespace
based on a pidfd already.
It has the same advantage as pidfds. It's possible to reliably and for
the lifetime of the system refer to a namespace without pinning any
resources and to compare them.
Permission checking is kept simple. If the caller is located in the
namespace the file handle refers to they are able to open it otherwise
they must hold privilege over the owning namespace of the relevant
namespace.
Both the network namespace and the mount namespace already have an
associated cookie that isn't recycled and is fully exposed to userspace.
Move this into ns_common and use the same id space for all namespaces so
they can trivially and reliably be compared.
There's more coming based on the iterator infrastructure but the series
is large enough and focuses on file handles.
Extensive selftests included.

Pidfd file handles are exhaustive meaning they don't require a handle on
another pidfd to pass to open_by_handle_at() so it can derive the
filesystem to decode in. Instead it can be derived from the file
handle itself. The same is possible for namespace file handles.

A while ago we added support for file handles to pidfs so pidfds can be
encoded and decoded as file handles. Userspace has adopted this quickly
and it's proven very useful. Implement file handles for namespaces as
well.
A process is not always able to open /proc/self/ns/. That requires
procfs to be mounted and for /proc/self/ or /proc/self/ns/ to not be
overmounted. However, userspace can always derive a namespace fd from
a pidfd. And that always works for a task's own namespace.
There's no need to introduce unnecessary behavioral differences between
/proc/self/ns/ fds, pidfd-derived namespace fds, and file-handle-derived
namespace fds. So namespace file handles are always decodable if the
caller is located in the namespace the file handle refers to.
This also allows a task to e.g., store a set of file handles to its
namespaces in a file on-disk so it can verify when it gets rexeced that
they're still valid and so on. This is akin to the pidfd use-case.
Or just plainly for namespace comparison reasons where a file handle to
the task's own namespace can be easily compared against others.

KVM: arm64: nv: Fix ATS12 handling of single-stage translation
Volodymyr reports that using a Xen DomU as a nested guest (where
HCR_EL2.E2H == 0), ATS12 results in a translation that stops at
the L2's S1, which isn't something you'd normally expects.
Comparing the code against the spec proves to be illuminating,
and suggests that the author of such code must have been tired,
cross-eyed, drunk, or maybe all of the above.
The gist of it is that, apart from HCR_EL2.VM or HCR_EL2.DC being
0, only the use of the EL2&0 translation regime limits the walk
to S1 only, and that we must finish the S2 walk in any other case.
Which solves the above issue, as E2H==0 indicates that ATS12 walks
the EL1&0 translation regime.
Volodymyr reports (again!) that under some circumstances (E2H==0,
walking S1 PTs), PAR_EL1 doesn't report the value of the latest
walk in the CPU register, but that instead the value is written to
the backing store.
Further investigation indicates that the root cause of this is
that a group of registers (PAR_EL1, TPIDR*_EL{0,1}, the *32_EL2 dregs)
should always be considered as "on CPU", as they are not remapped
between EL1 and EL2.
We fail to treat them accordingly, and end-up considering that
the register (PAR_EL1 in this example) should be written to memory
instead of in the register.
While it would be possible to quickly work around it, it is obvious
that the way we track these things at the moment is pretty horrible,
and could do with some improvement.
Revamp the whole thing by:
- defining a location for a register (memory, cpu), potentially
depending on the state of the vcpu
- define a transformation for this register (mapped register, potential
translation, special register needing some particular attention)
- convey this information in a structure that can be easily passed
around
As a result, the accessors themselves become much simpler, as the
state is explicit instead of being driven by hard-to-understand
conventions.
We get rid of the "pure EL2 register" notion, which wasn't very
useful, and add sanitisation of the values by applying the RESx
masks as required, something that was missing so far.
And of course, we add the missing registers to the list, with the
indication that they are always loaded.

ublk selftests: add --no_ublk_fixed_fd for not using registered ublk char device
Add a new command line option --no_ublk_fixed_fd that excludes the ublk
control device (/dev/ublkcN) from io_uring's registered files array.
When this option is used, only backing files are registered starting
from index 1, while the ublk control device is accessed using its raw
file descriptor.
Add ublk_get_registered_fd() helper function that returns the appropriate
file descriptor for use with io_uring operations.
Key optimizations implemented:
- Cache UBLKS_Q_NO_UBLK_FIXED_FD flag in ublk_queue.flags to avoid
reading dev->no_ublk_fixed_fd in fast path
- Cache ublk char device fd in ublk_queue.ublk_fd for fast access
- Update ublk_get_registered_fd() to use ublk_queue * parameter
- Update io_uring_prep_buf_register/unregister() to use ublk_queue *
- Replace ublk_device * access with ublk_queue * access in fast paths

plain ublk char device mode.

ublk: avoid ublk_io_release() called after ublk char dev is closed
When running test_stress_04.sh, the following warning is triggered:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 135 at drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1933 ublk_ch_release+0x423/0x4b0 [ublk_drv]
This happens when the daemon is abruptly killed:
- some references may still be held, because registering IO buffer
doesn't grab ublk char device reference
OR
- io->task_registered_buffers won't be cleared because io buffer is
released from non-daemon context
For zero-copy and auto buffer register modes, I/O reference crosses
syscalls, so IO reference may not be dropped naturally when ublk server is
killed abruptly. However, when releasing io_uring context, it is guaranteed
that the reference is dropped finally, see io_sqe_buffers_unregister() from
io_ring_ctx_free().
Fix this by adding ublk_drain_io_references() that:
- Waits for active I/O references dropped in async way by scheduling
work function, for avoiding ublk dev and io_uring file's release
dependency
- Reinitializes io->ref and io->task_registered_buffers to clean state
This ensures the reference count state is clean when ublk_queue_reinit()
is called, preventing the warning and potential use-after-free.

io_uring/kbuf: always use READ_ONCE() to read ring provided buffer lengths
Since the buffers are mapped from userspace, it is prudent to use
READ_ONCE() to read the value into a local variable, and use that for
any other actions taken. Having a stable read of the buffer length
avoids worrying about it changing after checking, or being read multiple
times.
Similarly, the buffer may well change in between it being picked and
being committed. Ensure the looping for incremental ring buffer commit
stops if it hits a zero sized buffer, as no further progress can be made
at that point.

====================
Locking fixes for fbnic driver
Address a few locking issues that were reported on the fbnic driver.
Specifically in one case we were seeing locking leaks due to us not
releasing the locks in certain exception paths. In another case we were
using phylink_resume outside of a section in which we held the RTNL mutex
and as a result we were throwing an assert.
====================
A bit of digging showed that we were invoking the phylink_resume as a part
of the fbnic_up path when we were enabling the service task while not
holding the RTNL lock. We should be enabling this sooner as a part of the
ndo_open path and then just letting the service task come online later.
This will help to enforce the correct locking and brings the phylink
interface online at the same time as the network interface, instead of at a
later time.
I tested this on QEMU to verify this was working by putting the system to
sleep using "echo mem > /sys/power/state" to put the system to sleep in the
guest and then using the command "system_wakeup" in the QEMU monitor.

handle that I am swapping the placement of the unlock and the exception
handling jump to label so that we don't trigger a deadlock by holding the
lock longer than we need to.
In addition this change applies the same ordering to the rtnl_lock/unlock

it adheres to a consistent pattern.

fs/smb: Fix inconsistent refcnt update
A possible inconsistent update of refcount was identified in `smb2_compound_op`.
Such inconsistent update could lead to possible resource leaks.
Why it is a possible bug:
1. In the comment section of the function, it clearly states that the
reference to `cfile` should be dropped after calling this function.
2. Every control flow path would check and drop the reference to
`cfile`, except the patched one.
3. Existing callers would not handle refcount update of `cfile` if
-ENOMEM is returned.
To fix the bug, an extra goto label "out" is added, to make sure that the
cleanup logic would always be respected. As the problem is caused by the
allocation failure of `vars`, the cleanup logic between label "finished"
and "out" can be safely ignored. According to the definition of function
`is_replayable_error`, the error code of "-ENOMEM" is not recoverable.
Therefore, the replay logic also gets ignored.
