Early feedback:

Building arm:allmodconfig ... failed

Error log:

include/linux/minmax.h:20:35: error: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

This will likely affect affects all branches where commit 6c77676645ad
("iov_iter: Fix iter_xarray_get_pages{,_alloc}()") was backported.

The fix is upstream commit 1c27f1fc1549 ("iov_iter: fix build issue due
to possible type mis-match").
