Merge tag 'nfsd-6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cel/linux

Pull nfsd updates from Chuck Lever:
"This release completes the SunRPC thread scheduler work that was begun
in v6.6. The scheduler can now find an svc thread to wake in constant
time and without a list walk. Thanks again to Neil Brown for this
overhaul.

Lorenzo Bianconi contributed infrastructure for a netlink-based NFSD
control plane. The long-term plan is to provide the same functionality
as found in /proc/fs/nfsd, plus some interesting additions, and then
migrate the NFSD user space utilities to netlink.

A long series to overhaul NFSD's NFSv4 operation encoding was applied
in this release. The goals are to bring this family of encoding
functions in line with the matching NFSv4 decoding functions and with
the NFSv2 and NFSv3 XDR functions, preparing the way for better memory
safety and maintainability.

A further improvement to NFSD's write delegation support was
contributed by Dai Ngo. This adds a CB_GETATTR callback, enabling the
server to retrieve cached size and mtime data from clients holding
write delegations. If the server can retrieve this information, it
does not have to recall the delegation in some cases.

The usual panoply of bug fixes and minor improvements round out this
release. As always I am grateful to all contributors, reviewers, and
testers"

lib: add light-weight queuing mechanism.

lwq is a FIFO single-linked queue that only requires a spinlock
for dequeueing, which happens in process context. Enqueueing is atomic
with no spinlock and can happen in any context.

This is particularly useful when work items are queued from BH or IRQ
context, and when they are handled one at a time by dedicated threads.

Avoiding any locking when enqueueing means there is no need to disable
BH or interrupts, which is generally best avoided (particularly when
there are any RT tasks on the machine).

This solution is superior to using "list_head" links because we need
half as many pointers in the data structures, and because list_head
lists would need locking to add items to the queue.

This solution is superior to a bespoke solution as all locking and
container_of casting is integrated, so the interface is simple.

Despite the similar name, this solution meets a distinctly different
need to kfifo. kfifo provides a fixed sized circular buffer to which
data can be added at one end and removed at the other, and does not
provide any locking. lwq does not have any size limit and works with
data structures (objects?) rather than data (bytes).

A unit test for basic functionality, which runs at boot time, is included.
