KVM/arm64 fixes for 6.12, take #1

- Fix pKVM error path on init, making sure we do not change critical
system registers as we're about to fail

- Make sure that the host's vector length is at capped by a value
common to all CPUs

- Fix kvm_has_feat*() handling of "negative" features, as the current
code is pretty broken

- Promote Joey to the status of official reviewer, while James steps
down -- hopefully only temporarly

ASoC: Fixes for v6.12

A bunch of fixes here that came in during the merge window and the first
week of release, plus some new quirks and device IDs. There's nothing
major here, it's a bit bigger than it might've been due to there being
no fixes sent during the merge window due to your vacation.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.12.blocksize' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull vfs blocksize updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the vfs infrastructure as well as the xfs bits to enable
support for block sizes (bs) larger than page sizes (ps) plus a few
fixes to related infrastructure.

There has been efforts over the last 16 years to enable enable Large
Block Sizes (LBS), that is block sizes in filesystems where bs > page
size. Through these efforts we have learned that one of the main
blockers to supporting bs > ps in filesystems has been a way to
allocate pages that are at least the filesystem block size on the page
cache where bs > ps.

Thanks to various previous efforts it is possible to support bs > ps
in XFS with only a few changes in XFS itself. Most changes are to the
page cache to support minimum order folio support for the target block
size on the filesystem.

A motivation for Large Block Sizes today is to support high-capacity
(large amount of Terabytes) QLC SSDs where the internal Indirection
Unit (IU) are typically greater than 4k to help reduce DRAM and so in
turn cost and space. In practice this then allows different
architectures to use a base page size of 4k while still enabling
support for block sizes aligned to the larger IUs by relying on high
order folios on the page cache when needed.

It also allows to take advantage of the drive's support for atomics
larger than 4k with buffered IO support in Linux. As described this
year at LSFMM, supporting large atomics greater than 4k enables
databases to remove the need to rely on their own journaling, so they
can disable double buffered writes, which is a feature different cloud
providers are already enabling through custom storage solutions"

Merge patch series "enable bs > ps in XFS"

Pankaj Raghav (Samsung) <kernel@pankajraghav.com> says:

This is the 13th version of the series that enables block size > page size
(Large Block Size) experimental support in XFS. Please consider this for
the inclusion in 6.12.

The context and motivation can be seen in cover letter of the RFC v1 [0].
We also recorded a talk about this effort at LPC [1], if someone would
like more context on this effort.

Thanks to David Howells, the page cache changes have also been tested on
top of AFS[2] with mapping_min_order set.

A lot of emphasis has been put on testing using kdevops, starting with an XFS
baseline [3]. The testing has been split into regression and progression.

Regression testing:
In regression testing, we ran the whole test suite to check for regressions on
existing profiles due to the page cache changes.

I also ran split_huge_page_test selftest on XFS filesystem to check for
huge page splits in min order chunks is done correctly.

No regressions were found with these patches added on top.

Progression testing:
For progression testing, we tested for 8k, 16k, 32k and 64k block sizes. To
compare it with existing support, an ARM VM with 64k base page system (without
our patches) was used as a reference to check for actual failures due to LBS
support in a 4k base page size system.

No new failures were found with the LBS support.

We've done some preliminary performance tests with fio on XFS on 4k block size
against pmem and NVMe with buffered IO and Direct IO on vanilla Vs + these
patches applied, and detected no regressions.

We ran sysbench on postgres and mysql for several hours on LBS XFS
without any issues.

We also wrote an eBPF tool called blkalgn [5] to see if IO sent to the device
is aligned and at least filesystem block size in length.

For those who want this in a git tree we have this up on a kdevops
large-block-minorder-for-next-v13 tag [6].
