Subject: Merge branches 'expcb.2026.07.24a', 'misc.2026.07.30a',
 'rcu-tasks.2026.07.30a', 'srcu.2026.08.11a' and 'torture.2026.08.14a' into
 HEAD

Changes:

Make expedited grace periods expedite normal RCU callbacks

Miscellaneous fixes:
 * Improve diagnostic output with character task states.
 * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design.
 * Move from kmalloc() to kmalloc_obj().
 * Documentation updates.
 * Improve handling of RCU deferred quiescent states.
 * Clean up unused function arguments and structure fields.
 * Reduce show_rcu_gp_kthreads() stack space.

Tasks RCU updates:
 * Clean up after SRCU re-implementation of Tasks Trace RCU.
 * Mark accesses to inform KCSAN of concurrency design.
 * Add ->lazy_timer status to diagnostic output.
 * Remove an unnecessary memory barrier.
 * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN.
 * Documentation updates.
 * Convert cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() from macro to static inline
   function.

SRCU updates:
 * Add Rust helpers for SRCU.
 * Avoid losing queued work at cleanup_srcu_struct() time.

Torture-test updates:
 * Preparation work for immediate RCU priority deboosting.
 * Test RCU readers from real interrupt handlers (as opposed to softirq).
 * Simplify code through use of cpumask_next_wrap().
 * Improve diagnostic output with character task states.
 * Add rcutorture.nwriters parameter to allow lightweight stall testing,
   and rcutorture.stall_only to make doing so easier.
 * Test an RCU Tasks Trace grace period implying an RCU grace period.
 * Make RCU Tasks Trace torturing track reader batches.
 * Fix a data race, courtesy of KCSAN.
 * Plug a shuffle_tmp_mask memory leak on kthread spawn failure.

+==================================================
+TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) Userspace API
+==================================================
+
+include/uapi/linux/tee.h defines the generic interface to a TEE.
+
+User space (the client) connects to the driver by opening /dev/tee[0-9]* or
+/dev/teepriv[0-9]*.
+
+- TEE_IOC_SHM_ALLOC allocates shared memory and returns a file descriptor
+  which user space can mmap. When user space doesn't need the file
+  descriptor any more, it should be closed. When shared memory isn't needed
+  any longer it should be unmapped with munmap() to allow the reuse of
+  memory.
+
+- TEE_IOC_VERSION lets user space know which TEE this driver handles and
+  its capabilities.
+
+- TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION opens a new session to a Trusted Application.
+
+- TEE_IOC_INVOKE invokes a function in a Trusted Application.
+
+- TEE_IOC_CANCEL may cancel an ongoing TEE_IOC_OPEN_SESSION or TEE_IOC_INVOKE.
+
+- TEE_IOC_CLOSE_SESSION closes a session to a Trusted Application.
+
+There are two classes of clients, normal clients and supplicants. The latter is
+a helper process for the TEE to access resources in Linux, for example file
+system access. A normal client opens /dev/tee[0-9]* and a supplicant opens
+/dev/teepriv[0-9].
+
+Much of the communication between clients and the TEE is opaque to the
+driver. The main job for the driver is to receive requests from the
+clients, forward them to the TEE and send back the results. In the case of
+supplicants the communication goes in the other direction, the TEE sends
+requests to the supplicant which then sends back the result.
