Pull mm updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yosry Ahmed brought back some cgroup v1 stats in OOM logs

 - Yosry has also eliminated cgroup's atomic rstat flushing

 - Nhat Pham adds the new cachestat() syscall. It provides userspace
   with the ability to query pagecache status - a similar concept to
   mincore() but more powerful and with improved usability

 - Mel Gorman provides more optimizations for compaction, reducing the
   prevalence of page rescanning

 - Lorenzo Stoakes has done some maintanance work on the
   get_user_pages() interface

 - Liam Howlett continues with cleanups and maintenance work to the
   maple tree code. Peng Zhang also does some work on maple tree

 - Johannes Weiner has done some cleanup work on the compaction code

 - David Hildenbrand has contributed additional selftests for
   get_user_pages()

 - Thomas Gleixner has contributed some maintenance and optimization
   work for the vmalloc code

 - Baolin Wang has provided some compaction cleanups,

 - SeongJae Park continues maintenance work on the DAMON code

 - Huang Ying has done some maintenance on the swap code's usage of
   device refcounting

 - Christoph Hellwig has some cleanups for the filemap/directio code

 - Ryan Roberts provides two patch series which yield some
   rationalization of the kernel's access to pte entries - use the
   provided APIs rather than open-coding accesses

 - Lorenzo Stoakes has some fixes to the interaction between pagecache
   and directio access to file mappings

 - John Hubbard has a series of fixes to the MM selftesting code

 - ZhangPeng continues the folio conversion campaign

 - Hugh Dickins has been working on the pagetable handling code, mainly
   with a view to reducing the load on the mmap_lock

 - Catalin Marinas has reduced the arm64 kmalloc() minimum alignment
   from 128 to 8

 - Domenico Cerasuolo has improved the zswap reclaim mechanism by
   reorganizing the LRU management

 - Matthew Wilcox provides some fixups to make gfs2 work better with the
   buffer_head code

 - Vishal Moola also has done some folio conversion work

 - Matthew Wilcox has removed the remnants of the pagevec code - their
   functionality is migrated over to struct folio_batch
