Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "Many singleton patches against the MM code. The patch series which are
  included in this merge do the following:

   - Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
     series 'Fixes and cleanups to compaction'

   - Joel Fernandes has a patchset ('Optimize mremap during mutual
     alignment within PMD') which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
     pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
     implementation which Linus suggested

   - More DAMON/DAMOS maintenance and feature work from SeongJae Park i
     the following patch series:

	mm/damon: misc fixups for documents, comments and its tracepoint
	mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions
	mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access rate
	mm/damon: implement DAMOS apply intervals
	mm/damon/core-test: Fix memory leaks in core-test
	mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: Do DAMOS tried regions update for only one apply interval

   - In the series 'Do not try to access unaccepted memory' Adrian
     Hunter provides some fixups for the recently-added 'unaccepted
     memory' feature. To increase the feature's checking coverage. 'Plug
     a few gaps where RAM is exposed without checking if it is
     unaccepted memory'

   - In the series 'cleanups for lockless slab shrink' Qi Zheng has done
     some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab
     shrinking code

   - Qi Zheng has redone the earlier (and reverted) attempt to make slab
     shrinking lockless in the series 'use refcount+RCU method to
     implement lockless slab shrink'

   - David Hildenbrand contributes some maintenance work for the rmap
     code in the series 'Anon rmap cleanups'

   - Kefeng Wang does more folio conversions and some maintenance work
     in the migration code. Series 'mm: migrate: more folio conversion
     and unification'

   - Matthew Wilcox has fixed an issue in the buffer_head code which was
     causing long stalls under some heavy memory/IO loads. Some cleanups
     were added on the way. Series 'Add and use bdev_getblk()'

     manipulation' Zi Yan has fixed a potential issue with the direct
     manipulation of hugetlb page frames

   - In the series 'mm: hugetlb: Skip initialization of gigantic tail
     struct pages if freed by HVO' has improved our handling of gigantic
     pages in the hugetlb vmmemmep optimizaton code. This provides
     significant boot time improvements when significant amounts of
     gigantic pages are in use

     added statistics for memcg v1 users which are available (and
     useful) under memcg v2

   - Florent Revest has enhanced the MDWE (Memory-Deny-Write-Executable)
     prctl so that userspace may direct the kernel to not automatically
     propagate the denial to child processes. The series is named 'MDWE
     without inheritance'

   - Kefeng Wang has provided the series 'mm: convert numa balancing
     functions to use a folio' which does what it says

   - In the series 'mm/ksm: add fork-exec support for prctl' Stefan
     Roesch makes is possible for a process to propagate KSM treatment
     across exec()

   - Huang Ying has enhanced memory tiering's calculation of memory
     distances. This is used to permit the dax/kmem driver to use 'high
     bandwidth memory' in addition to Optane Data Center Persistent
     Memory Modules (DCPMM). The series is named 'memory tiering:
     calculate abstract distance based on ACPI HMAT'

@@ -227,3 +227,92 @@ Before Linux 3.11 pagemap bits 55-60 were used for "page-shift" (which is
 always 12 at most architectures). Since Linux 3.11 their meaning changes
 after first clear of soft-dirty bits. Since Linux 4.2 they are used for
 flags unconditionally.
+
+Pagemap Scan IOCTL
+==================
+
+The ``PAGEMAP_SCAN`` IOCTL on the pagemap file can be used to get or optionally
+clear the info about page table entries. The following operations are supported
+in this IOCTL:
+
+- Scan the address range and get the memory ranges matching the provided criteria.
+  This is performed when the output buffer is specified.
+- Write-protect the pages. The ``PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING`` is used to write-protect
+  the pages of interest. The ``PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC`` aborts the operation if
+  non-Async Write Protected pages are found. The ``PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING`` can be
+  used with or without ``PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC``.
+- Both of those operations can be combined into one atomic operation where we can
+  get and write protect the pages as well.
+
+Following flags about pages are currently supported:
+
+- ``PAGE_IS_WPALLOWED`` - Page has async-write-protection enabled
+- ``PAGE_IS_WRITTEN`` - Page has been written to from the time it was write protected
+- ``PAGE_IS_FILE`` - Page is file backed
+- ``PAGE_IS_PRESENT`` - Page is present in the memory
+- ``PAGE_IS_SWAPPED`` - Page is in swapped
+- ``PAGE_IS_PFNZERO`` - Page has zero PFN
+- ``PAGE_IS_HUGE`` - Page is THP or Hugetlb backed
+
+The ``struct pm_scan_arg`` is used as the argument of the IOCTL.
+
+ 1. The size of the ``struct pm_scan_arg`` must be specified in the ``size``
+    field. This field will be helpful in recognizing the structure if extensions
+    are done later.
+ 2. The flags can be specified in the ``flags`` field. The ``PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING``
+    and ``PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC`` are the only added flags at this time. The get
+    operation is optionally performed depending upon if the output buffer is
+    provided or not.
+ 3. The range is specified through ``start`` and ``end``.
+ 4. The walk can abort before visiting the complete range such as the user buffer
+    can get full etc. The walk ending address is specified in``end_walk``.
+ 5. The output buffer of ``struct page_region`` array and size is specified in
+    ``vec`` and ``vec_len``.
+ 6. The optional maximum requested pages are specified in the ``max_pages``.
+ 7. The masks are specified in ``category_mask``, ``category_anyof_mask``,
+    ``category_inverted`` and ``return_mask``.
+
+Find pages which have been written and WP them as well::
+
+   struct pm_scan_arg arg = {
+   .size = sizeof(arg),
+   .flags = PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC | PM_SCAN_CHECK_WPASYNC,
+   ..
+   .category_mask = PAGE_IS_WRITTEN,
+   .return_mask = PAGE_IS_WRITTEN,
+   };
+
+Find pages which have been written, are file backed, not swapped and either
+present or huge::
+
+   struct pm_scan_arg arg = {
+   .size = sizeof(arg),
+   .flags = 0,
+   ..
+   .category_mask = PAGE_IS_WRITTEN | PAGE_IS_SWAPPED,
+   .category_inverted = PAGE_IS_SWAPPED,
+   .category_anyof_mask = PAGE_IS_PRESENT | PAGE_IS_HUGE,
+   .return_mask = PAGE_IS_WRITTEN | PAGE_IS_SWAPPED |
+                  PAGE_IS_PRESENT | PAGE_IS_HUGE,
+   };
+
+The ``PAGE_IS_WRITTEN`` flag can be considered as a better-performing alternative
+of soft-dirty flag. It doesn't get affected by VMA merging of the kernel and hence
+the user can find the true soft-dirty pages in case of normal pages. (There may
+still be extra dirty pages reported for THP or Hugetlb pages.)
+
+"PAGE_IS_WRITTEN" category is used with uffd write protect-enabled ranges to
+implement memory dirty tracking in userspace:
+
+ 1. The userfaultfd file descriptor is created with ``userfaultfd`` syscall.
+ 2. The ``UFFD_FEATURE_WP_UNPOPULATED`` and ``UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC`` features
+    are set by ``UFFDIO_API`` IOCTL.
+ 3. The memory range is registered with ``UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_WP`` mode
+    through ``UFFDIO_REGISTER`` IOCTL.
+ 4. Then any part of the registered memory or the whole memory region must
+    be write protected using ``PAGEMAP_SCAN`` IOCTL with flag ``PM_SCAN_WP_MATCHING``
+    or the ``UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT`` IOCTL can be used. Both of these perform the
+    same operation. The former is better in terms of performance.
+ 5. Now the ``PAGEMAP_SCAN`` IOCTL can be used to either just find pages which
+    have been written to since they were last marked and/or optionally write protect
+    the pages as well.
