From: Aboorva Devarajan
Date: Sat Aug 16 2025 - 00:02:02 EST


Hi all,

This patch series addresses false positives in the generic mm selftests
and skips tests that cannot run correctly due to missing features or system
limitations.


v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250729053403.1071807-1-aboorvad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Changes in v4:

- Rebased onto the latest mm-new branch, top commit of the base is commit 916e1f041670 ("drivers/base: move memory_block_add_nid() into the caller"). Dropped the v3 patches that had already been merged and re-applied them to the mm-new branch.
- Only Patch 4 is updated to address review comments, all other patches remain unchanged from v3.
