Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner:

- Consolidate the VDSO datastore further and provide support for
mlock_all() and prefaulting.

- Provide 32-bit legacy time related functionality only if
CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME is enabled. The config switch exists,
but architecture code still exposes the legacy functionality even
disabled.

Clean this up by adding the missing guards and validating at build
time that the VDSO is legacy free if disabled.

- Consolidate the VDSO related config options in core and drivers,
which removes some non-sensical dependencies and quite an amount of
#ifdeffery.

- Clean up the PAGE_SIZE definition maze

vDSO: Make clockmode constants available without CONFIG_GENERIC_GETTIMEOFDAY

Some code, for example clocksource drivers, may want to use the vDSO

But the symbols are completely hidden in that case, making ugly

Merge tag 'locking-core-2026-06-14' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Futex updates:

- Optimize futex hash bucket access patterns (Peter Zijlstra)

- Large series to address the robust futex unlock race for real, by
Thomas Gleixner:

"The robust futex unlock mechanism is racy in respect to the
clearing of the robust_list_head::list_op_pending pointer because
unlock and clearing the pointer are not atomic.

The race window is between the unlock and clearing the pending op
pointer. If the task is forced to exit in this window, exit will
access a potentially invalid pending op pointer when cleaning up
the robust list.

That happens if another task manages to unmap the object
containing the lock before the cleanup, which results in an UAF.

In the worst case this UAF can lead to memory corruption when
unrelated content has been mapped to the same address by the time
the access happens.

User space can't solve this problem without help from the kernel.
This series provides the kernel side infrastructure to help it
along:

1) Combined unlock, pointer clearing, wake-up for the
contended case

2) VDSO based unlock and pointer clearing helpers with a
fix-up function in the kernel when user space was interrupted
within the critical section.

percpu: Sanitize __percpu_qual include hell

Slapping __percpu_qual into the next available header is sloppy at best.

It's required by __percpu which is defined in compiler_types.h and that is
meant to be included without requiring a boatload of other headers so that
a struct or function declaration can contain a __percpu qualifier w/o
further prerequisites.

This implicit dependency on linux/percpu.h makes that impossible and causes
a major problem when trying to separate headers.

Create asm/percpu_types.h and move it there. Include that from
compiler_types.h and the whole recursion problem goes away.

Fix up UM so it uses the generic header and includes it in the UM_HOST
build, which pulls in compiler_types.h. The USER_CFLAGS fix was suggested
by Richard.

- "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)

A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
quote Christoph:

"The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
code.

Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
overhead"
