Linus Torvalds 5147da902e Merge branch 'exit-cleanups-for-v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "While looking at some issues related to the exit path in the kernel I
  found several instances where the code is not using the existing
  abstractions properly.

  This set of changes introduces force_fatal_sig a way of sending a
  signal and not allowing it to be caught, and corrects the misuse of
  the existing abstractions that I found.

  A lot of the misuse of the existing abstractions are silly things such
  as doing something after calling a no return function, rolling BUG by
  hand, doing more work than necessary to terminate a kernel thread, or
  calling do_exit(SIGKILL) instead of calling force_sig(SIGKILL).

  In the review a deficiency in force_fatal_sig and force_sig_seccomp
  where ptrace or sigaction could prevent the delivery of the signal was
  found. I have added a change that adds SA_IMMUTABLE to change that
  makes it impossible to interrupt the delivery of those signals, and
  allows backporting to fix force_sig_seccomp

  And Arnd found an issue where a function passed to kthread_run had the
  wrong prototype, and after my cleanup was failing to build."
