One of the recurring complaints from both maintainers and CI system
operators is that performing git-am on received patches is difficult
without knowing the parent object in the git history on which the
patches are based. Without this information, there is a high likelihood
that git-am will fail due to conflicts, which is particularly
frustrating to CI operators.
Git versions starting with v2.9.0 are able to automatically include
base-commit information using the --base flag of git-format-patch.
Document this usage in process/submitting-patches, and add the rationale
for its inclusion, plus instructions for those not using git on where
the "base-commit:" trailer should go.

The 'functions' directive is not only for functions, but also works for
structs/unions. So the name is misleading. This patch renames it to
'identifiers', which specific the functions/types to be included in

all documentation are updated.

"The main thing here is a long-awaited workaround for a CPU erratum on

future if performance numbers show up indicating a significant cost
for real workloads.

Commit 8974558f49 ("mm, page_owner, debug_pagealloc: save and dump
freeing stack trace") enhanced page_owner to also store freeing stack
trace, when debug_pagealloc is also enabled. KASAN would also like to
do this [1] to improve error reports to debug e.g. UAF issues.
Kirill has suggested that the freeing stack trace saving should be also
possible to be enabled separately from KASAN or debug_pagealloc, i.e.
with an extra boot option. Qian argued that we have enough options
already, and avoiding the extra overhead is not worth the complications
in the case of a debugging option. Kirill noted that the extra stack
handle in struct page_owner requires 0.1% of memory.
This patch therefore enables free stack saving whenever page_owner is
enabled, regardless of whether debug_pagealloc or KASAN is also enabled.
KASAN kernels booted with page_owner=on will thus benefit from the
improved error reports.

Miguel Ojeda comments on the eventual [[fallthrough]] syntax:
"Note that C17/C18 does not have [[fallthrough]].
C++17 introduced it, as it is mentioned above. I would keep the
__attribute__((fallthrough)) -> [[fallthrough]] change you did,
though, since that is indeed the standard syntax (given the paragraph
references C++17).
I was told by Aaron Ballman (who is proposing them for C) that it is
more or less likely that it becomes standardized in C2x. However, it
is still not added to the draft (other attributes are already,
though). See N2268 and N2269:

Merge tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"A larger-than-usual batch of arm64 fixes for -rc3.
The bulk of the fixes are dealing with a bunch of issues with the
build system from the compat vDSO, which unfortunately led to some
significant Makefile rework to manage the horrible combinations of
toolchains that we can end up needing to drive simultaneously.
We came close to disabling the thing entirely, but Vincenzo was quick
to spin up some patches and I ended up picking up most of the bits
that were left [*]. Future work will look at disentangling the header
files properly.
Other than that, we have some important fixes all over, including one
papering over the miscompilation fallout from forcing
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y, which I'm still unhappy about. Harumph.
We've still got a couple of open issues, so I'm expecting to have some
more fixes later this cycle.
Summary:
- Numerous fixes to the compat vDSO build system, especially when
combining gcc and clang
- Fix parsing of PAR_EL1 in spurious kernel fault detection
- Partial workaround for Neoverse-N1 erratum #1542419
- Fix IRQ priority masking on entry from compat syscalls
- Fix advertisment of FRINT HWCAP to userspace
- Attempt to workaround inlining breakage with '__always_inline'
- Fix accidental freeing of parent SVE state on fork() error path
- Add some missing NULL pointer checks in instruction emulation init
- Some formatting and comment fixes"
