Linus Torvalds da23ea194d Significant patch series in this pull request:
- The 4 patch series "mseal cleanups" from Lorenzo Stoakes erforms some
   mseal cleaning with no intended functional change.
 
 - The 3 patch series "Optimizations for khugepaged" from David
   Hildenbrand improves khugepaged throughput by batching PTE operations
   for large folios.  This gain is mainly for arm64.
 
 - The 8 patch series "x86: enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for ftrace and
   kprobes" from Mike Rapoport provides a bugfix, additional debug code and
   cleanups to the execmem code.
 
 - The 7 patch series "mm/shmem, swap: bugfix and improvement of mTHP
   swap in" from Kairui Song provides bugfixes, cleanups and performance
   improvememnts to the mTHP swapin code.
