Subject: [GIT PULL for v6.7] vfs xattr updates
Hey Linus,
/* Summary */
The 's_xattr' field of 'struct super_block' currently requires a mutable
table of 'struct xattr_handler' entries (although each handler itself is
const). However, no code in vfs actually modifies the tables.
This changes the type of 's_xattr' to allow const tables, and modifies
existing file systems to move their tables to .rodata. This is desirable
because these tables contain entries with function pointers in them;
moving them to .rodata makes it considerably less likely to be modified
accidentally or maliciously at runtime.
/* Testing */
clang: Debian clang version 16.0.6 (16)
gcc: gcc (Debian 13.2.0-5) 13.2.0
All patches are based on v6.6-rc2 and have been sitting in linux-next.
No build failures or warnings were observed.
/* Conflicts */
At the time of creating this PR no merge conflicts were reported from
linux-next and no merge conflicts showed up doing a test-merge with
current mainline.
The following changes since commit ce9ecca0238b140b88f43859b211c9fdfd8e5b70:
