selftests/bpf: Reject graph kptr use after RCU unlockgrafted
Add a sleepable verifier test that loads a graph-node local kptr in an explicit RCU read-side critical section, then passes its node to bpf_rbtree_remove() after the section ends. Before the verifier fix, the stale NON_OWN_REF flag makes the node look like a live borrowed reference and the program is accepted. After the fix, the pointer is demoted without NON_OWN_REF and the graph kfunc argument is rejected. Also exercise a graph kptr loaded while a spin lock provides implicit RCU protection. The pointer must be invalidated when the lock is released, which guards the required ordering between non-owning-reference invalidation and RCU demotion. Update the existing fault-protected load test state description. The post-unlock pointer no longer carries NON_OWN_REF, but remains readable because the load is rewritten to use BPF_PROBE_MEM.

+Checking for needed translation updates
+=======================================
+
+This script helps track the translation status of the documentation in
+different locales, i.e., whether the documentation is up-to-date with
+the English counterpart.
+
+How it works
+------------
+
+It uses ``git log`` command to track the latest English commit from the
+translation commit (order by author date) and the latest English commits
+from HEAD. If any differences occur, the file is considered as out-of-date,
+then commits that need to be updated will be collected and reported.
+
+Features implemented
+
+- check all files in a certain locale
+- check a single file or a set of files
+- provide options to change output format
+- track the translation status of files that have no translation
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+::
+
+ tools/docs/checktransupdate.py --help
+
+Please refer to the output of argument parser for usage details.
+
+Samples
+
+- ``tools/docs/checktransupdate.py -l zh_CN``
+ This will print all the files that need to be updated in the zh_CN locale.
+- ``tools/docs/checktransupdate.py Documentation/translations/zh_CN/dev-tools/testing-overview.rst``
+ This will only print the status of the specified file.
+
+Then the output is something like:
+
+::
+
+ Documentation/dev-tools/kfence.rst
+ No translation in the locale of zh_CN
+
+ Documentation/translations/zh_CN/dev-tools/testing-overview.rst
+ commit 42fb9cfd5b18 ("Documentation: dev-tools: Add link to RV docs")
+ 1 commits needs resolving in total
+
+Features to be implemented
+
+- files can be a folder instead of only a file
