memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry-&gt;d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call.  As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file.  Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.

Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event-&gt;cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently
dropped the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.
With the invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race
against renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause
use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now
that cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file
operations needs to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's
check the superblock and dentry type.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:

 - Fix a recent regression where a sleeping kernfs function is called
   with css_set_lock (spinlock) held

 - Revert the commit to enable cgroup1 support for cgroup_get_from_fd/file()

   Multiple users assume that the lookup only works for cgroup2 and
   breaks when fed a cgroup1 file. Instead, introduce a separate set of
   functions to lookup both v1 and v2 and use them where the user
   explicitly wants to support both versions.

 - Compat update for tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bperf_cgroup.bpf.c.

 - Add Josef Bacik as a blkcg maintainer.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

 - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

 - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

 - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

 - migration enhancements from Peter Xu

 - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

 - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

 - THP &amp; KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

 - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

 - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

 - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

 - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

 - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

 - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

This reverts commit f3a2aebdd6fb90e444d595e46de64e822af419da.

The commit enabled looking up v1 cgroups via cgroup_get_from_file().
However, there are multiple users, including CLONE_INTO_CGROUP, which have
been assuming that it would only look up v2 cgroups. Returning v1 cgroups
breaks them.

Let's revert the commit and retry later with a separate lookup interface
which allows both v1 and v2.

<content type='text'>
The commit 74e4b956eb1c incorrectly wrapped kernfs_walk_and_get
(might_sleep) under css_set_lock (spinlock). css_set_lock is needed by
__cset_cgroup_from_root to ensure stable cset-&gt;cgrp_links but not for
kernfs_walk_and_get.

We only need to make sure that the returned root_cgrp won't be freed
under us. This is given in the case of global root because it is static
(cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp). When the root_cgrp is lower in the hierarchy, it
is pinned by cgroup_ns-&gt;root_cset (and `current` task cannot switch
namespace asynchronously so ns_proxy pins cgroup_ns).

Note this reasoning won't hold for root cgroups in v1 hierarchies,
therefore create a special-cased helper function just for the default
hierarchy.

The commit 74e4b956eb1c incorrectly wrapped kernfs_walk_and_get
(might_sleep) under css_set_lock (spinlock). css_set_lock is needed by
__cset_cgroup_from_root to ensure stable cset-&gt;cgrp_links but not for
kernfs_walk_and_get.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Debuggability:

   - Change most occurances of BUG_ON() to WARN_ON_ONCE()

   - Reorganize &amp; fix TASK_ state comparisons, turn it into a bitmap

   - Update/fix misc scheduler debugging facilities

  Load-balancing &amp; regular scheduling:

   - Improve the behavior of the scheduler in presence of lot of
     SCHED_IDLE tasks - in particular they should not impact other
     scheduling classes.

   - Optimize task load tracking, cleanups &amp; fixes

   - Clean up &amp; simplify misc load-balancing code

  Freezer:

   - Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be
     simpler in general, by replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN &amp;
     fixing/adjusting all the fallout.

  Deadline scheduler:

   - Fix the DL capacity-aware code

   - Factor out dl_task_is_earliest_deadline() &amp;

   - Relax/optimize locking in task_non_contending()

  Cleanups:

   - Factor out the update_current_exec_runtime() helper
