The series is now in Linus's tree so should be in v6.16-rc1. But during testing in linux-next we found some ugly corners (unexpected nesting). I was able to fix those issues by making the arm64 implementation more permissive (like the other arches). But this is quite fragile IMHO. So I'd rather fix the root cause and ensure that lazy mmu mode never nests, and more importantly, that code never makes pgtable modifications expecting them to be immediate, not knowing that it's actually in lazy mmu mode so the changes get deferred. The first 2 patches are unrelated, very obvious bug fixes. They don't affect arm64 because arm64 only uses lazy mmu for kernel mappings. But I noticed them during code review and think they should be fixed. The next 3 patches are aimed at solving the nesting issue. And the final patch is reverting the "permissive" fix I did for arm64, which is no longer needed after the previous 3 patches. I've labelled this RFC for now because it depends on the arm64 lazy mmu patches in Linus's master, so it won't apply to mm-unstable. But I'm keen to get review and siince I'm touching various arches and modifying some core mm stuff, I thought that might take a while so thought I'd beat the rush and get a first version out early. I've build-tested all the affected arches. And I've run mm selftests for the arm64 build, with no issues (with DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and KFENCE enabled). Applies against Linus's master branch (f66bc387efbe).
