[PATCH v4 00/15] mm/shmem: various (urgent?) fixes

["David Hildenbrand (Arm)" <david@kernel.org>]

Hi,

Thanks everyone for the fast review and tests!

I'm planning on picking these myself and routing them through mm-core.

This is a handful of fixes for shmem/tmpfs. I sneaked in a related
hugetlb fix that stalled upstream.

Some of the stuff is more urgent (patch #1, F_SEAL_EXEC, truncation
hangs), others are less urgent but still rather unpleasant.

The majority are fixes from Anthropic that I cleaned up or reworked.
While doing that, I found a bunch of other issues and tried to fix them
somewhat cleanly.

Mote details, including other issues not fixed by this series can be
found in the cover letter of v1.
