The SafeSetID LSM has functionality for restricting setuid() calls based
on its configured security policies. This patch adds the analogous
functionality for setgid() calls. This is mostly a copy-and-paste change
with some code deduplication, plus slight modifications/name changes to
the policy-rule-related structs (now contain GID rules in addition to
the UID ones) and some type generalization since SafeSetID now needs to
deal with kgid_t and kuid_t types.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's quite a lot of code here, but much of it is due to the
addition of a new PMU driver as well as some arm64-specific selftests
which is an area where we've traditionally been lagging a bit.
In terms of exciting features, this includes support for the Memory
Tagging Extension which narrowly missed 5.9, hopefully allowing
userspace to run with use-after-free detection in production on CPUs
that support it. Work is ongoing to integrate the feature with KASAN
for 5.11.
Another change that I'm excited about (assuming they get the hardware
right) is preparing the ASID allocator for sharing the CPU page-table
with the SMMU. Those changes will also come in via Joerg with the
IOMMU pull.
We do stray outside of our usual directories in a few places, mostly
due to core changes required by MTE. Although much of this has been
Acked, there were a couple of places where we unfortunately didn't get
any review feedback.
Other than that, we ran into a handful of minor conflicts in -next,
but nothing that should post any issues.
Summary:
- Userspace support for the Memory Tagging Extension introduced by
Armv8.5. Kernel support (via KASAN) is likely to follow in 5.11.
- Selftests for MTE, Pointer Authentication and FPSIMD/SVE context

There are several :c:type: definitions there, in order to

Those are broken when docs are built with Sphinx 3.x, as
it would require :c:struct: instead.
For Sphinx < 3.x, the automarkup.py extension is able to do the
replacement already, and a future improvement on it should make
it also work with Sphinx 3.x.
So, get rid of the usage of the :c:type: macro there.

Dictionaries are only used for SUBSYSTEM and DEVICE properties. The
current implementation stores the property names each time they are
used. This requires more space than otherwise necessary. Also,
because the dictionary entries are currently considered optional,
it cannot be relied upon that they are always available, even if the
writer wanted to store them. These issues will increase should new
dictionary properties be introduced.
Rather than storing the subsystem and device properties in the
dict ring, introduce a struct dev_printk_info with separate fields
to store only the property values. Embed this struct within the
struct printk_info to provide guaranteed availability.

Following the structure used in sysctl/kernel.rst, this updates
abi.rst to use ReStructured Text more fully and updates the entries to
match current kernels:
* the list of files is now the table of contents;
* links are used to point to other documentation and other sections;
* all the existing entries are no longer present, so this removes
them;
* document vsyscall32.
Mentions of the kernel version are dropped. Since the document is
entirely rewritten, I've replaced the copyright statement.

The V4 filesystem format contains known weaknesses in the on-disk format
that make metadata verification diffiult. In addition, the format does
not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We
should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack
surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5.
Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first
period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw
support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone
who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will
be removed from the kernel. Dates for these events have been added to
the upstream kernel.

Add support for extending the newest data block. For this, introduce
a new finalization state (desc_finalized) denoting a committed
descriptor that cannot be extended.
Until a record is finalized, a writer can reopen that record to
append new data. Reopening a record means transitioning from the
desc_committed state back to the desc_reserved state.
A writer can explicitly finalize a record if there is no intention
of extending it. Also, records are automatically finalized when a
new record is reserved. This relieves writers of needing to
explicitly finalize while also making such records available to
readers sooner. (Readers can only traverse finalized records.)
Four new memory barrier pairs are introduced. Two of them are
insignificant additions (data_realloc:A/desc_read:D and
data_realloc:A/data_push_tail:B) because they are alternate path
memory barriers that exactly match the purpose, pairing, and
context of the two existing memory barrier pairs they provide an
alternate path for. The other two new memory barrier pairs are
significant additions:
desc_reopen_last:A / _prb_commit:B - When reopening a descriptor,
ensure the state transitions back to desc_reserved before
fully trusting the descriptor data.
_prb_commit:B / desc_reserve:D - When committing a descriptor,
ensure the state transitions to desc_committed before checking
the head ID to see if the descriptor needs to be finalized.
