[patch V5 00/20] sched: Rewrite MM CID management

[Thomas Gleixner]

This is a follow up on the V4 series which can be found here:

    https://lore.kernel.org/20251104075053.700034556@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

The V1 cover letter contains a detailed analyisis of the issues:

    https://lore.kernel.org/20251015164952.694882104@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

TLDR: The CID management is way to complex and adds significant overhead
into scheduler hotpaths.

The series rewrites MM CID management in a more simplistic way which
focusses on low overhead in the scheduler while maintaining per task CIDs
as long as the number of threads is not exceeding the number of possible
CPUs.

The series is based on the V6 series of the rseq rewrite:

    https://lore.kernel.org/20251027084220.785525188@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

which is also available from git:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git core/rseq

The series on top of the tip core/rseq branch is available from git as
well:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/devel.git rseq/cid

Changes vs. V4:

   - Zero mm_cid::transit on init - Mathieu

   - Rephrase change logs - Mathiue

   - Picked up Reviewed/Acked-by tags

Delta patch to V4 below.

Thanks,
