08ab786556 rust: bindgen: upgrade to 0.65.1
In LLVM 16, anonymous items may return names like `(unnamed union at ..)`
rather than empty names [1], which breaks Rust-enabled builds because
bindgen assumed an empty name instead of detecting them via
`clang_Cursor_isAnonymous` [2]:

    $ make rustdoc LLVM=1 CLIPPY=1 -j$(nproc)
      RUSTC L rust/core.o
      BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_generated.rs
      BINDGEN rust/bindings/bindings_helpers_generated.rs
      BINDGEN rust/uapi/uapi_generated.rs
    thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9
    ...
    thread 'main' panicked at '"ftrace_branch_data_union_(anonymous_at__/_/include/linux/compiler_types_h_146_2)" is not a valid Ident', .../proc-macro2-1.0.24/src/fallback.rs:693:9
    ...

This was fixed in bindgen 0.62.0. Therefore, upgrade bindgen to
a more recent version, 0.65.1, to support LLVM 16.

Since bindgen 0.58.0 changed the `--{white,black}list-*` flags to
`--{allow,block}list-*` [3], update them on our side too.

In addition, bindgen 0.61.0 moved its CLI utility into a binary crate
called `bindgen-cli` [4]. Thus update the installation command in the
Quick Start guide.

Moreover, bindgen 0.61.0 changed the default functionality to bind
`size_t` to `usize` [5] and added the `--no-size_t-is-usize` flag
to not bind `size_t` as `usize`. Then bindgen 0.65.0 removed
the `--size_t-is-usize` flag [6]. Thus stop passing the flag to bindgen.

Finally, bindgen 0.61.0 added support for the `noreturn` attribute (in
its different forms) [7]. Thus remove the infinite loop in our Rust
panic handler after calling `BUG()`, since bindgen now correctly
generates a `BUG()` binding that returns `!` instead of `()`.

89eed1ab11 rust: upgrade to Rust 1.71.1
This is the second upgrade to the Rust toolchain, from 1.68.2 to 1.71.1
(i.e. the latest).

See the upgrade policy [1] and the comments on the first upgrade in
commit 3ed03f4da0 ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2").

# Unstable features

No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized.

Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside
the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.

Please see [2] for details.

# Required changes

For the upgrade, this patch requires the following changes:

  - Removal of the `__rust_*` allocator functions, together with
    the addition of the `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable` static.
    See [3] for details.

  - Some more compiler builtins added due to `<f{32,64}>::midpoint()`
    that got added in Rust 1.71 [4].

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded
at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

    # Apply this patch.
    git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch

    # Get the difference with respect to the new version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

Add AMD back to the embargoed-hardware-issues.rst list.  There was
confusion about a recent issue that ended up being due to third-party's
misrepresentation, not AMD, so add AMD back to the list to get notified
properly as they understand the proper procedures to follow.

Because the linux-distros group forces reporters to release information

bugs fixed despite not actually being kernel developers, the kernel
security team recommends not interacting with them at all as this just
causes confusion and the early-release of reported security problems.

b45d8f3871 docs: remove the tips on how to submit patches from MAINTAINERS
Having "how to submit patches" in MAINTAINTERS seems out of place.
We have a whole section of documentation about it, duplication
is harmful and a lot of the text looks really out of date.

Sections 1, 2 and 4 look really, really old and not applicable
to the modern process.

Section 3 is obvious but also we have build bots now.

Section 5 is a bit outdated (diff -u?!). But I like the part
about factoring out shared code, so add that to process docs.

Section 6 is unnecessary?

Section 7 is covered by more appropriate docs.

a9025a5f16 ARM: New SoC support for 6.5
There are two new SoC families this time, and both appear fairly similar:
 The Nuvoton MA35D1 and the STMicroelectronics STM32MP2 are both dual-core
 Cortex-A35 based chips for the low-power industrial embedded market,
 and they mark the first 64-bit product in a widely used family of 32-bit
 Arm MCUs and SoCs.
 
 The way into the kernel is completely different here: The team at ST has
 a long history of working upstream with their STM32MP1 and other SoCs,
 and they produced a complete port to arm64 together with the initial
 announcement. Nuvoton also has multiple SoC product lines with current
 or previous upstream support, but those are maintained by third parties
 and are unrelated. The patch series from Nuvoton's Jacky Huang had to
 go through many revisisions to get to this point and is still missing
 a few drivers including the serial port for the moment.
 
 The branch contains the devicetree files as well as all the code changes,
 in order to have something that can be tested standalone.

eed892da9c docs: handling-regressions: rework section about fixing procedures
This basically rewrites the 'Prioritize work on fixing regressions'
section of Documentation/process/handling-regressions.rst for various
reasons. Among them: some things were too demanding, some didn't align
well with the usual workflows, and some apparently were not clear enough
-- and of course a few things were missing that would be good to have in
there.

Linus for example recently stated that regressions introduced during the
past year should be handled similarly to regressions from the current
cycle, if it's a clear fix with no semantic subtlety. His exact
wording[1] didn't fit well into the text structure, but the author tried
to stick close to the apparent intention.

It was a noble goal from the original author to state "[prevent
situations that might force users to] continue running an outdated and
thus potentially insecure kernel version for more than two weeks after a
regression's culprit was identified"; this directly led to the goal "fix
regression in mainline within one week, if the issue made it into a
stable/longterm kernel", because the stable team needs time to pick up
and prepare a new release. But apparently all that was a bit too
demanding.

That "one week" target for example doesn't align well with the usual
habits of the subsystem maintainers, which normally send their fixes to
Linus once a week; and it doesn't align too well with stable/longterm
releases either, which often enter a -rc phase on Mondays or Tuesdays
and then are released two to three days later. And asking developers to
create, review, and mainline fixes within one week might be too much to
ask for in general. Hence tone the general goal down to three weeks and
use an approach that better aligns with the usual merging and release
habits.

While at it, also make the rules of thumb a bit easier to follow by
grouping them by topic (e.g. generic things, timing, procedures, ...).

Also add text for a few cases where recent discussions showed they need
covering. Among them are multiple points that better explain the
relations to stable and longterm kernels and the team that manages them;
they and the group seperators are the primary reason why this whole
section sadly grew somewhat in the rewrite.

The group about those relations led to one addition the author came up
with without any precedent from Linus: the text now tells developers to
add a stable tag for any regression that made it into a proper mainline
release during the past 12 months. This is meant to ensure the stable
team will definitely notice any fixes for recent regressions. That
includes those introduced shortly before a new mainline release and
found right after it; without such a rule the stable team might miss the
fix, which then would only reach users after weeks or months with later
releases.

Note, the aspect "Do not consider regressions from the current cycle as
something that can wait till the cycle's end [...]" might look like an
addition, but was kinda was in the old text as well -- but only
indirectly. That apparently was too subtle, as many developers seem to
assume waiting till the end of the cycle is fine (even for build
fixes).

In practice this was especially problematic when a cause of a regression
made it into a proper release (either directly or through a backport). A
revert performed by Linus shortly before the 6.3 release illustrated
that[2], as the developer of the culprit had been willing to revert the
culprit about three weeks earlier already -- but didn't do so when a fix
came into sight and a maintainer suggested it can wait. Due to that the
issue in the end plagued users of 6.2.y at least two weeks longer than
necessary, as the fix in the end didn't become ready in time. This issue
in fact could have been resolved one or two additional weeks earlier, if
the developer had reverted the culprit shortly after it had been
identified (which even the old version of the text suggest to do in such
cases).

3ed03f4da0 rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2
This is the first upgrade to the Rust toolchain since the initial Rust
merge, from 1.62.0 to 1.68.2 (i.e. the latest).

# Context

The kernel currently supports only a single Rust version [1] (rather
than a minimum) given our usage of some "unstable" Rust features [2]
which do not promise backwards compatibility.

The goal is to reach a point where we can declare a minimum version for
the toolchain. For instance, by waiting for some of the features to be
stabilized. Therefore, the first minimum Rust version that the kernel
will support is "in the future".

# Upgrade policy

Given we will eventually need to reach that minimum version, it would be
ideal to upgrade the compiler from time to time to be as close as
possible to that goal and find any issues sooner. In the extreme, we
could upgrade as soon as a new Rust release is out. Of course, upgrading
so often is in stark contrast to what one normally would need for GCC
and LLVM, especially given the release schedule: 6 weeks for Rust vs.
half a year for LLVM and a year for GCC.

Having said that, there is no particular advantage to updating slowly
either: kernel developers in "stable" distributions are unlikely to be
able to use their distribution-provided Rust toolchain for the kernel
anyway [3]. Instead, by routinely upgrading to the latest instead,
kernel developers using Linux distributions that track the latest Rust
release may be able to use those rather than Rust-provided ones,
especially if their package manager allows to pin / hold back /
downgrade the version for some days during windows where the version may
not match. For instance, Arch, Fedora, Gentoo and openSUSE all provide
and track the latest version of Rust as they get released every 6 weeks.

Then, when the minimum version is reached, we will stop upgrading and
decide how wide the window of support will be. For instance, a year of
Rust versions. We will probably want to start small, and then widen it
over time, just like the kernel did originally for LLVM, see commit
3519c4d6e0 ("Documentation: add minimum clang/llvm version").

# Unstable features stabilized

This upgrade allows us to remove the following unstable features since
they were stabilized:

  - `feature(explicit_generic_args_with_impl_trait)` (1.63).
  - `feature(core_ffi_c)` (1.64).
  - `feature(generic_associated_types)` (1.65).
  - `feature(const_ptr_offset_from)` (1.65, *).
  - `feature(bench_black_box)` (1.66, *).
  - `feature(pin_macro)` (1.68).

The ones marked with `*` apply only to our old `rust` branch, not
mainline yet, i.e. only for code that we may potentially upstream.

With this patch applied, the only unstable feature allowed to be used
outside the `kernel` crate is `new_uninit`, though other code to be
upstreamed may increase the list.

Please see [2] for details.

# Other required changes

Since 1.63, `rustdoc` triggers the `broken_intra_doc_links` lint for
links pointing to exported (`#[macro_export]`) `macro_rules`. An issue
was opened upstream [4], but it turns out it is intended behavior. For
the moment, just add an explicit reference for each link. Later we can
revisit this if `rustdoc` removes the compatibility measure.

Nevertheless, this was helpful to discover a link that was pointing to
the wrong place unintentionally. Since that one was actually wrong, it
is fixed in a previous commit independently.

Another change was the addition of `cfg(no_rc)` and `cfg(no_sync)` in
upstream [5], thus remove our original changes for that.

Similarly, upstream now tests that it compiles successfully with
`#[cfg(not(no_global_oom_handling))]` [6], which allow us to get rid
of some changes, such as an `#[allow(dead_code)]`.

In addition, remove another `#[allow(dead_code)]` due to new uses
within the standard library.

Finally, add `try_extend_trusted` and move the code in `spec_extend.rs`
since upstream moved it for the infallible version.

# `alloc` upgrade and reviewing

There are a large amount of changes, but the vast majority of them are
due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once.

There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from
upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates
needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer
infallible APIs coming from upstream.

Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative
approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and
the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only,
especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match
the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream.

Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in
the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot
potentially unintended changes to our additions.

To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following
to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream
Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after
applying this patch:

    # Get the difference with respect to the old version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

    # Apply this patch.
    git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch

    # Get the difference with respect to the new version.
    git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc)
    git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc |
        cut -d/ -f3- |
        grep -Fv README.md |
        xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH
    git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch
    git -C linux restore rust/alloc

Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first
approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second
approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.

Linus Torvalds
6e98b09da9 Networking changes for 6.4.
Core
 ----
 
  - Introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Increasing the
    default value allows for better BIG TCP performances.
 
  - Reduce compound page head access for zero-copy data transfers.
 
  - RPS/RFS improvements, avoiding unneeded NET_RX_SOFTIRQ when possible.
 
  - Threaded NAPI improvements, adding defer skb free support and unneeded
    softirq avoidance.
 
  - Address dst_entry reference count scalability issues, via false
    sharing avoidance and optimize refcount tracking.
 
  - Add lockless accesses annotation to sk_err[_soft].
 
  - Optimize again the skb struct layout.
 
  - Extends the skb drop reasons to make it usable by multiple
    subsystems.
 
  - Better const qualifier awareness for socket casts.
 
 BPF
 ---
 
  - Add skb and XDP typed dynptrs which allow BPF programs for more
    ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data and variable-sized
    accesses.
 
  - Add a new BPF netfilter program type and minimal support to hook
    BPF programs to netfilter hooks such as prerouting or forward.
 
  - Add more precise memory usage reporting for all BPF map types.
 
  - Adds support for using {FOU,GUE} encap with an ipip device operating
    in collect_md mode and add a set of BPF kfuncs for controlling encap
    params.
 
  - Allow BPF programs to detect at load time whether a particular kfunc
    exists or not, and also add support for this in light skeleton.
 
  - Bigger batch of BPF verifier improvements to prepare for upcoming BPF
    open-coded iterators allowing for less restrictive looping capabilities.
 
  - Rework RCU enforcement in the verifier, add kptr_rcu and enforce BPF
    programs to NULL-check before passing such pointers into kfunc.
 
  - Add support for kptrs in percpu hashmaps, percpu LRU hashmaps and in
    local storage maps.
 
  - Enable RCU semantics for task BPF kptrs and allow referenced kptr
    tasks to be stored in BPF maps.
 
  - Add support for refcounted local kptrs to the verifier for allowing
    shared ownership, useful for adding a node to both the BPF list and
    rbtree.
 
  - Add BPF verifier support for ST instructions in convert_ctx_access()
    which will help new -mcpu=v4 clang flag to start emitting them.
 
  - Add ARM32 USDT support to libbpf.
 
  - Improve bpftool's visual program dump which produces the control
    flow graph in a DOT format by adding C source inline annotations.
 
 Protocols
 ---------
 
  - IPv4: Allow adding to IPv4 address a 'protocol' tag. Such value
    indicates the provenance of the IP address.
 
  - IPv6: optimize route lookup, dropping unneeded R/W lock acquisition.
 
  - Add the handshake upcall mechanism, allowing the user-space
    to implement generic TLS handshake on kernel's behalf.
 
  - Bridge: support per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression, increasing
    resilience to nodes failures.
 
  - SCTP: add support for Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Queueing
    schedulers.
 
  - MPTCP: delay first subflow allocation up to its first usage. This
    will allow for later better LSM interaction.
 
  - xfrm: Remove inner/outer modes from input/output path. These are
    not needed anymore.
 
  - WiFi:
    - reduced neighbor report (RNR) handling for AP mode
    - HW timestamping support
    - support for randomized auth/deauth TA for PASN privacy
    - per-link debugfs for multi-link
    - TC offload support for mac80211 drivers
    - mac80211 mesh fast-xmit and fast-rx support
    - enable Wi-Fi 7 (EHT) mesh support
 
 Netfilter
 ---------
 
  - Add nf_tables 'brouting' support, to force a packet to be routed
    instead of being bridged.
 
  - Update bridge netfilter and ovs conntrack helpers to handle
    IPv6 Jumbo packets properly, i.e. fetch the packet length
    from hop-by-hop extension header. This is needed for BIT TCP
    support.
 
  - The iptables 32bit compat interface isn't compiled in by default
    anymore.
 
  - Move ip(6)tables builtin icmp matches to the udptcp one.
    This has the advantage that icmp/icmpv6 match doesn't load the
    iptables/ip6tables modules anymore when iptables-nft is used.
 
  - Extended netlink error report for netdevice in flowtables and
    netdev/chains. Allow for incrementally add/delete devices to netdev
    basechain. Allow to create netdev chain without device.
 
 Driver API
 ----------
 
  - Remove redundant Device Control Error Reporting Enable, as PCI core
    has already error reporting enabled at enumeration time.
 
  - Move Multicast DB netlink handlers to core, allowing devices other
    then bridge to use them.
 
  - Allow the page_pool to directly recycle the pages from safely
    localized NAPI.
 
  - Implement lockless TX queue stop/wake combo macros, allowing for
    further code de-duplication and sanitization.
 
  - Add YNL support for user headers and struct attrs.
 
  - Add partial YNL specification for devlink.
 
  - Add partial YNL specification for ethtool.
 
  - Add tc-mqprio and tc-taprio support for preemptible traffic classes.
 
  - Add tx push buf len param to ethtool, specifies the maximum number
    of bytes of a transmitted packet a driver can push directly to the
    underlying device.
 
  - Add basic LED support for switch/phy.
 
  - Add NAPI documentation, stop relaying on external links.
 
  - Convert dsa_master_ioctl() to netdev notifier. This is a preparatory
    work to make the hardware timestamping layer selectable by user
    space.
 
  - Add transceiver support and improve the error messages for CAN-FD
    controllers.

c0d747a5b2 Documentation/process: always CC responsible lists
The "Select the recipients for your patch" part about CC-ing mailing
lists is a bit vague and might be understood that only some lists should
be Cc-ed.  That's not what most of the maintainers expect.  For given
code, associated mailing list must always be CC-ed, because the list is
used for reviewing and testing patches.  Example are the Devicetree
bindings patches, which are tested iff Devicetree mailing list is CC-ed.

0d828200ad docs: process: allow Closes tags with links
Since v6.3, checkpatch.pl now complains about the use of "Closes:" tags
followed by a link [1].  It also complains if a "Reported-by:" tag is
followed by a "Closes:" one [2].

As detailed in the first patch, this "Closes:" tag is used for a bit of
time, mainly by DRM and MPTCP subsystems.  It is used by some bug trackers
to automate the closure of issues when a patch is accepted.  It is even
planned to use this tag with bugzilla.kernel.org [3].

The first patch updates the documentation to explain what is this
"Closes:" tag and how/when to use it.  The second patch modifies
checkpatch.pl to stop complaining about it.

The DRM maintainers and their mailing list have been added in Cc as they
are probably interested by these two patches as well.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/3b036087d80b8c0e07a46a1dbaaf4ad0d018f8d5.1674217480.git.linux@leemhuis.info/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/bb5dfd55ea2026303ab2296f4a6df3da7dd64006.1674217480.git.linux@leemhuis.info/
[3] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20230315181205.f3av7h6owqzzw64p@meerkat.local/


This patch (of 5):

Making sure a bug tracker is up to date is not an easy task.  For example,
a first version of a patch fixing a tracked issue can be sent a long time
after having created the issue.  But also, it can take some time to have
this patch accepted upstream in its final form.  When it is done, someone
-- probably not the person who accepted the patch -- has to remember about
closing the corresponding issue.

This task of closing and tracking the patch can be done automatically by
bug trackers like GitLab [1], GitHub [2] and hopefully soon [3]
bugzilla.kernel.org when the appropriated tag is used.  The two first ones
accept multiple tags but it is probably better to pick one.

According to commit 76f381bb77 ("checkpatch: warn when unknown tags are used for links"),
the "Closes" tag seems to have been used in the past by a few people and
it is supported by popular bug trackers. Here is how it has been used in
the past:

 $ git log --no-merges --format=email -P --grep='^Closes: http' | \
       grep '^Closes: http' | cut -d/ -f3-5 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
    391 gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel
     79 github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next
      8 gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm
      3 gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd
      2 gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa
      1 patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/73320
      1 gitlab.freedesktop.org/lima/linux
      1 gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/nouveau
      1 github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux
      1 bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1579
      1 bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1543
      1 bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1436
      1 bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1427
      1 bugs.debian.org/625804

Likely here, the "Closes" tag was only properly used with GitLab and
GitHub.  We can also see that it has been used quite a few times (and
still used recently) and this is then not a "random tag that makes no
sense" like it was the case with "BugLink" recently [4].  It has also been
misused but that was a long time ago, when it was common to use many
different random tags.

checkpatch.pl script should then stop complaining about this "Closes" tag.
As suggested by Thorsten [5], if this tag is accepted, it should first be
described in the documentation.  This is what is done here in this patch.

To avoid confusion, the "Closes" should be used with any public bug
report.  No need to check if the underlying bug tracker supports
automations.  Having this tag with any kind of public bug reports allows
bots like regzbot to clearly identify patches fixing a specific bug and
avoid false-positives, e.g.  patches mentioning it is related to an issue
but not fixing it.  As suggested by Thorsten [6] again, if we follow the
same logic, the "Closes" tag should then be used after a "Reported-by"
one.

Note that thanks to this "Closes" tag, the mentioned bug trackers can also
locate where a patch has been applied in different branches and
repositories.  If only the "Link" tag is used, the tracking can also be
done but the ticket will not be closed and a manual operation will be
needed.  Also, these bug trackers have some safeguards: the closure is
only done if a commit having the "Closes:" tag is applied in a specific
branch.  It will then not be closed if a random commit having the same tag
is published elsewhere.  Also in case of closure, a notification is sent
to the owners.

10a29eb658 Documentation/process: Add Linux Kernel Contribution Maturity Model
As a follow-up to a discussion at the 2021 Maintainer's Summit on the
topic of maintainer recruitment and retention, the TAB took on the
task of creating a document which to help companies and other
organizations to grow in their ability to engage with the Linux Kernel
development community, using the Maturity Model[2] framework.

The goal is to encourage, in a management-friendly way, companies to
allow their engineers to contribute with the upstream Linux Kernel
development community, so we can grow the "talent pipeline" for
contributors to become respected leaders, and eventually kernel
maintainers.

44ac5abac8 Documentation/security-bugs: move from admin-guide/ to process/
Jiri Kosina, Jonathan Corbet, and Willy Tarreau all expressed a desire
to move this document under process/.

Create a new section for security issues in the index and group it with
embargoed-hardware-issues.

I'm doing this at the start of the series to make all the subsequent
changes show up in 'git blame'.

Existing references were updated using:

  git grep -l security-bugs ':!Documentation/translations/' | xargs sed -i 's|admin-guide/security-bugs|process/security-bugs|g'
  git grep -l security-bugs Documentation/translations/ | xargs sed -i 's|Documentation/admin-guide/security-bugs|Documentation/process/security-bugs|g'
  git grep -l security-bugs Documentation/translations/ | xargs sed -i '/Original:/s|\.\./admin-guide/security-bugs|\.\./process/security-bugs|g'

Notably, the page is not moved in the translations (due to my lack of
knowledge of these languages), but the translations have been updated
to point to the new location of the original document where these
references exist.

9b12f050c7 char: pcmcia: remove all the drivers
These char PCMCIA drivers are buggy[1] and receive only minimal care. It

completely. Let's start with these char broken one.

Note that I also removed a UAPI header: include/uapi/linux/cm4000_cs.h.
I found only coccinelle tests mentioning some ioctl constants from that
file. But they are not actually used. Anyway, should someone complain,
we may reintroduce the header (or its parts).
