Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-coregrafted

Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g.
   SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs

 - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI
   abstractions

 - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is
   disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality

 - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware
   Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS
   entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly

* tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
  MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader
  CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload
  firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes
  rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32
  kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs
  drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF

+=========
+dm-stripe
+=========
+
+Device-Mapper's "striped" target is used to create a striped (i.e. RAID-0)
+device across one or more underlying devices. Data is written in "chunks",
+with consecutive chunks rotating among the underlying devices. This can
+potentially provide improved I/O throughput by utilizing several physical
+devices in parallel.
+
+Parameters: <num devs> <chunk size> [<dev path> <offset>]+
+    <num devs>:
+	Number of underlying devices.
+    <chunk size>:
+	Size of each chunk of data. Must be at least as
+        large as the system's PAGE_SIZE.
+    <dev path>:
+	Full pathname to the underlying block-device, or a
+	"major:minor" device-number.
+    <offset>:
+	Starting sector within the device.
+
+One or more underlying devices can be specified. The striped device size must
+be a multiple of the chunk size multiplied by the number of underlying devices.
+
+
+Example scripts
+===============
+
+::
+
+  #!/usr/bin/perl -w
+  # Create a striped device across any number of underlying devices. The device
+  # will be called "stripe_dev" and have a chunk-size of 128k.
+

+  my ($min_dev_size, $stripe_dev_size, $i);
+
+  if (!$num_devs) {
+          die("Specify at least one device\n");
+  }

+  $min_dev_size = `blockdev --getsz $devs[0]`;
