[GIT PULL] Core MM updates for 7.4 (new MM tree)

[GIT PULL] Core MM updates for 7.4 (new MM tree)

[David Hildenbrand (Arm)]

Hi Linus,

As discussed at the Maintainer Summit, this is the first pull request from
the new core MM tree. I'm a bit late due to travel.

This cycle was primarily used to set up the core MM tree, move some
smaller MM components into it, and establish the MM integration workflow
for linux-next.

For 7.4, MM updates will reach you through the slab, memblock, Andrew's
MM, and my core MM trees.

For the next cycle (7.5), we plan to route fewer patches through Andrew's
tree and start merging the MM component trees (memblock, slab, core) into
the new MM integration tree for upstreaming.

In subsequent cycles, we'll gradually move more components from
Andrew's MM tree into existing or new MM component trees, with the
eventual goal of having a single MM integration tree for you to pull
from.

I'm using merge commits to:

 - Merge patch series, with the adjusted cover letter in the merge
   commit message.

 - Merge topic branches, with a summary of the changes in the merge
   commit message.

The signed tag contains a high-level summary of the changes.

Please let me know if anything looks odd or if you would prefer different
summaries.

There are no known conflicts with other trees.

Cheers,

David
