[GIT PULL] slab updates for 6.17

[Vlastimil Babka]

Hi Linus,

please pull the latest slab updates from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab.git tags/slab-for-6.17

We've hit a last-minute snag last week when lkp reported [1] the commit
"mm, slab: use frozen pages for large kmalloc" exposed a pre-existing bug
in siw_tcp_sendpages(). Pedro has been fixing it [2] so hopefully that will
result in a PR soon, which you can pull before this one - or perhaps take
the fix directly. If that gets stuck for some reason and taking the fix
later would be unacceptable, I can do another PR with my commit taken out.

Thanks,
Vlastimil

======================================

* Convert struct slab to its own flags instead of referencing page flags,
  which is another preparation step before separating it from struct page
  completely. Along with that, a bunch of documentation fixes and cleanups.
  (Matthew Wilcox)

* Convert large kmalloc to use frozen pages in order to be consistent with
  non-large kmalloc slabs (Vlastimil Babka)

* MAINTAINERS updates (Matthew Wilcox, Lorenzo Stoakes)

* Restore NUMA policy support for large kmalloc, broken by mistake in v6.1
