Merge tag 'slab-for-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:

 - Make kvmalloc() more suitable for callers that need it to succeed,
   but without unnecessary overhead by reclaim and compaction to get a
   physically contiguous allocation.

   Instead fall back to vmalloc() more easily by default, unless
   instructed by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL to prefer kmalloc() harder. This
   should allow the removal of a xfs-specific workaround (Michal Hocko)

 - Remove potentially excessive warnings due to memory pressure when
   allocating structures for per-object allocation profiling metadata
   (Usama Arif)

Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
