docs: reporting-issues.rst: improved process esp. for stable regressions
Provide a shorter and easier process for users that deal with
regressions in stable and longterm kernels, as those should be reported
quickly.
To realize this in the least-confusing way and without having steps
multiple times in different places, split the 'search for existing
reports' into two. That has the additinal benefit that users will search
for them quickly when going through the step by step guide and thus will
save them trouble if the find reports.

Documentation/features: mark BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH doesn't apply to ARM64
BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH is used on x86 to do batched tlb shootdown by
sending one IPI to TLB flush all entries after unmapping pages rather
than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry.
On arm64, tlb shootdown is done by hardware. Flush instructions are
innershareable. The local flushes are limited to the boot (1 per CPU)
and when a task is getting a new ASID.
So marking this feature as "TODO" is not proper. ".." isn't good as
well. So this patch adds a "N/A" for this kind of features which are
not needed on some architectures.

scripts: kernel-doc: fix attribute capture in function parsing
Currently, kernel-doc warns for function prototype parsing on the
presence of attributes "__attribute_const__" and "__flatten" in the
definition.
There are 166 occurrences in ~70 files in the kernel tree for
"__attribute_const__" and 5 occurrences in 4 files for "__flatten".
Out of 166, there are 3 occurrences in three different files with
"__attribute_const__" and a preceding kernel-doc; and, 1 occurrence in
./mm/percpu.c for "__flatten" with a preceding kernel-doc. All other
occurrences have no preceding kernel-doc.
Add support for "__attribute_const__" and "__flatten" attributes.
A quick evaluation by running 'kernel-doc -none' on kernel-tree reveals
that no additional warning or error has been added or removed by the fix.

the checkpatch documentation that is currently being built up.

checkpatch: add verbose mode
Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch.pl to emit additional verbose
test descriptions. The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled
by the flag -v or --verbose.
The test descriptions are parsed from the checkpatch documentation
file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`. The test
descriptions in the docs are kept in a fixed format grouped by
usage. Some examples of this format are:
**LINE_SPACING**
Vertical space is wasted given the limited number of lines an
editor window can display when multiple blank lines are used.
**MISSING_SIGN_OFF**
The patch is missing a Signed-off-by line. A signed-off-by
line should be added according to Developer's certificate of
Origin.
To avoid lengthy output, the verbose description is printed only
for the first instance of a particular message type.
The --verbose option cannot be used along with the --terse option.
Verbose mode can be used with the --list-types option.
The --list-types output also supports color coding now.

detail:
- Fully serialize manager and worker creation, fixing races due to
that.
- Clean up some naming that had gone stale.
- SQPOLL fixes.
- Fix race condition around task_work rework that went into this
merge window.
- Implement unshare. Used for when the original task does unshare(2)
or setuid/seteuid and friends, drops the original workers and forks
new ones.
- Drop the only remaining piece of state shuffling we had left, which
was cred. Move it into issue instead, and we can drop all of that
code too.
- Kill f_op->flush() usage. That was such a nasty hack that we had
out of necessity, we no longer need it.
- Following from ->flush() removal, we can also drop various bits of
ctx state related to SQPOLL and cancelations.
- Fix an issue with IOPOLL retry, which originally was fallout from a
filemap change (removing iov_iter_revert()), but uncovered an issue
with iovec re-import too late.
- Fix an issue with system suspend.
- Use xchg() for fallback work, instead of cmpxchg().
- Properly destroy io-wq on exec.
- Add create_io_thread() core helper, and use that in io-wq and
io_uring. This allows us to remove various silly completion events
related to thread setup.
- A few error handling fixes.
This should be the grunt of fixes necessary for the new workers, next
week should be quieter. We've got a pending series from Pavel on
cancelations, and how tasks and rings are indexed. Outside of that,
should just be minor fixes. Even with these fixes, we're still killing

It doesn't make sense to wait for more events to come in, if we can't
even flush the overflow we already have to the ring. Return -EBUSY for
that condition, just like we do for attempts to submit with overflow
pending.

io_uring: move to using create_io_thread()
This allows us to do task creation and setup without needing to use
completions to try and synchronize with the starting thread. Get rid of
the old io_wq_fork_thread() wrapper, and the 'wq' and 'worker' startup
completion events - we can now do setup before the task is running.
