Linus Torvalds 0bdf4a8bf0 s390 updates for 6.3 merge window part 2
- Add empty command line parameter handling stubs to kernel for all command
   line parameters which are handled in the decompressor. This avoids
   invalid "Unknown kernel command line parameters" messages from the
   kernel, and also avoids that these will be incorrectly passed to user
   space. This caused already confusion, therefore add the empty stubs
 
 - Add missing phys_to_virt() handling to machine check handler
 
 - Introduce and use a union to be used for zcrypt inline assemblies. This
   makes sure that only a register wide member of the union is passed as
   input and output parameter to inline assemblies, while usual C code uses
   other members of the union to access bit fields of it
 
 - Add and use a READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() macro, which can be used to
   atomically read a 128-bit value from memory. This replaces the (mis-)use
   of the 128-bit cmpxchg operation to do the same in cpum_sf code.
   Currently gcc does not generate the used lpq instruction if __READ_ONCE()
   is used for aligned 128-bit accesses, therefore use this s390 specific
   helper
 
 - Simplify machine check handler code if a task needs to be killed because
   of e.g. register corruption due to a machine malfunction
 
 - Perform CPU reset to clear pending interrupts and TLB entries on an
   already stopped target CPU before delegating work to it
 
 - Generate arch/s390/boot/vmlinux.map link map for the decompressor, when
   CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is enabled for debugging purposes
 
 - Fix segment type handling for dcssblk devices. It incorrectly always
   returned type "READ/WRITE" even for read-only segements, which can result
   in a kernel panic if somebody tries to write to a read-only device
 
 - Sort config S390 select list again
 
 - Fix two kprobe reenter bugs revealed by a recently added kprobe kunit

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
