Linux kernel stable tree
bb902cb47c
This patch adds accounting flags to fs_context and legacy_fs_context
allocation sites so that kernel could correctly charge these objects.
We have written a PoC to demonstrate the effect of the missing-charging
bugs. The PoC takes around 1,200MB unaccounted memory, while it is
charged for only 362MB memory usage. We evaluate the PoC on QEMU x86_64
v5.2.90 + Linux kernel v5.10.19 + Debian buster. All the limitations
including ulimits and sysctl variables are set as default. Specifically,
the hard NOFILE limit and nr_open in sysctl are both 1,048,576.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
