Hi Linus,

please pull the latest slab updates from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab.git tags/slab-for-6.5

the changes are summarized below. There will be a (not completely trivial) conflict
with the mm tree. Stephen's resolution [1] is ok; I would personally move the flags
SLAB_NO_MERGE modification hunk above the minalign hunk for better logical separation,
but correctness wise there's no difference.

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

* SLAB deprecation

Following the discussion at LSF/MM 2023 [1] and no objections, the SLAB
allocator is deprecated by renaming the config option (to make its users
notice) to CONFIG_SLAB_DEPRECATED with updated help text. SLUB should be
used instead. Existing defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB are also updated.

* SLAB_NO_MERGE kmem_cache flag, by Jesper Dangaard Brouer

There are (very limited) cases where kmem_cache merging is undesirable, and
existing ways to prevent it are hacky. Introduce a new flag to do that
cleanly and convert the existing hacky users. Btrfs plans to use this for
debug kernel builds (that use case is always fine), networking for
performance reasons (that should be very rare).

* Replace the usage of weak PRNGs, by David Keisar Schmidt

In addition to using stronger RNGs for the security related features, the
code is a bit cleaner.

* Misc code cleanups, by SeongJae Parki, Xiongwei Song, Zhen Lei, and
zhaoxinchao.
