[GIT PULL] random number generator updates for 6.11-rc1
From: Jason A. Donenfeld

Hi Linus,
Here's the vDSO getrandom() work we've been discussing for the last few weeks.
Thank you very much for your input on this and for working with me to get this
where it is. I'm happy with the set of compromises, and I think this wound up
in a decent place. A blurb for the merge message:
This is a short series adding getrandom() support to the vDSO. First, it adds a
new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which lets the kernel zero out
pages anytime under memory pressure, which enables allocating memory that never
gets swapped to disk but also doesn't count as being mlocked. Then, the vDSO
implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a generic manner and hooked into
random.c. Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for
this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already.) Finally, two
vDSO selftests are added.
Each version of this series has been in linux-next for a little bit, and there
are no major reported issues, though there may be a trivial merge conflict.
Please pull, and thanks again for your input on this.
Thanks,
Jason
