Merge tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2024-03-14-09-36' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Kuan-Wei Chiu has developed the well-named series "lib min_heap: Min
heap optimizations".
- Kuan-Wei Chiu has also sped up the library sorting code in the series
"lib/sort: Optimize the number of swaps and comparisons".
- Alexey Gladkov has added the ability for code running within an IPC
namespace to alter its IPC and MQ limits. The series is "Allow to
change ipc/mq sysctls inside ipc namespace".
- Geert Uytterhoeven has contributed some dhrystone maintenance work in
the series "lib: dhry: miscellaneous cleanups".
- Ryusuke Konishi continues nilfs2 maintenance work in the series
"nilfs2: eliminate kmap and kmap_atomic calls"
"nilfs2: fix kernel bug at submit_bh_wbc()"
- Nathan Chancellor has updated our build tools requirements in the
series "Bump the minimum supported version of LLVM to 13.0.1".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum continues with the selftests maintenance work in
the series "selftests/mm: Improve run_vmtests.sh".
- Oleg Nesterov has done some maintenance work against the signal code
in the series "get_signal: minor cleanups and fix".
Plus the usual shower of singleton patches in various parts of the tree.
Please see the individual changelogs for details.
