Pull IPE fixes from Fan Wu: "Two fixes for use-after-free issues found by recent LLM-assisted code analysis. - move successful policy load auditing under the new policy directory's inode lock, preventing a concurrent policy deletion from freeing the policy while it is still being audited - protect the dm-verity root hash with RCU, preventing policy evaluation from racing with root hash replacement during preresume" * tag 'ipe-pr-20260925' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wufan/ipe: ipe: protect the dm-verity root hash with RCU ipe: fix use-after-free when auditing a newly loaded policy

+What: devfs
+Date: July 2005 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.18
+Contact: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
+Description:
+ devfs has been unmaintained for a number of years, has unfixable
+ races, contains a naming policy within the kernel that is
+ against the LSB, and can be replaced by using udev.
+
+ The files fs/devfs/*, include/linux/devfs_fs*.h were removed,
+ along with the assorted devfs function calls throughout the
+ kernel tree.
