Subject: [PATCH] arm64: mte: Do not warn if the page is already tagged in
copy_highpage()
The arm64 copy_highpage() assumes that the destination page is newly
allocated and not MTE-tagged (PG_mte_tagged unset) and warns
accordingly. However, following commit 060913999d7a ("mm: migrate:
support poisoned recover from migrate folio"), folio_mc_copy() is called
before __folio_migrate_mapping(). If the latter fails (-EAGAIN), the
copy will be done again to the same destination page. Since
copy_highpage() already set the PG_mte_tagged flag, this second copy
will warn.
Replace the WARN_ON_ONCE(page already tagged) in the arm64
copy_highpage() with a comment.

Subject: [PATCH] xfs: always warn about deprecated mount options
The deprecation of the 'attr2' mount option in 6.18 wasn't entirely
successful because nobody noticed that the kernel never printed a
warning about attr2 being set in fstab if the only xfs filesystem is the
root fs; the initramfs mounts the root fs with no mount options; and the
init scripts only conveyed the fstab options by remounting the root fs.
Fix this by making it complain all the time.

Subject: [PATCH] arch_topology: Fix incorrect error check in
topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
Fix incorrect use of PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
which causes the code to proceed with NULL clock pointers. The current
logic uses !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) which evaluates to true for both
valid pointers and NULL, leading to potential NULL pointer dereference
in clk_get_rate().
Per include/linux/err.h documentation, PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(ptr) returns:
"The error code within @ptr if it is an error pointer; 0 otherwise."
This means PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() returns 0 for both valid pointers AND NULL
pointers. Therefore !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) evaluates to true (proceed)
when cpu_clk is either valid or NULL, causing clk_get_rate(NULL) to be
called when of_clk_get() returns NULL.
Replace with !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(cpu_clk) which only proceeds for valid
pointers, preventing potential NULL pointer dereference in clk_get_rate().

IOW ovl_check_encode_origin derefs inode->i_sb->s_root, after it was set
to NULL in the unmount path.
Fix it by protecting calling exportfs_encode_fid() from
show_mark_fhandle() with s_umount lock.
This form of fix was suggested by Amir in [1].

Subject: [PATCH] arch_topology: Fix incorrect error check in
topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
Fix incorrect use of PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() in topology_parse_cpu_capacity()
which causes the code to proceed with NULL clock pointers. The current
logic uses !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) which evaluates to true for both
valid pointers and NULL, leading to potential NULL pointer dereference
in clk_get_rate().
Per include/linux/err.h documentation, PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(ptr) returns:
"The error code within @ptr if it is an error pointer; 0 otherwise."
This means PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() returns 0 for both valid pointers AND NULL
pointers. Therefore !PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(cpu_clk) evaluates to true (proceed)
when cpu_clk is either valid or NULL, causing clk_get_rate(NULL) to be
called when of_clk_get() returns NULL.
Replace with !IS_ERR_OR_NULL(cpu_clk) which only proceeds for valid
pointers, preventing potential NULL pointer dereference in clk_get_rate().

No, I asked that it not be backported:

Hi
Guido Berhoerster asked in Debian (https://bugs.debian.org/1118660) to
consider adding support for bluetooth device of BlazarIW, BlazarU and
Gale Peak2 cores, which landed in 6.13-rc1, via d88a8bb8bbbe
("Bluetooth: btintel: Add DSBR support for BlazarIW, BlazarU and
GaP").
While it is not exactly a bugfix, as things were not working
beforehand as well, this type of hardware might be very common during
the lifecycle of users for 6.12.y stable series.
Can you consider picking the commit for 6.12.y?
Regards,
Salvatore
