* Move jiffies converters out of kernel/sysctl.c Moved the jiffies converters into kernel/time/jiffies.c and replaced the pipe-max-size proc_handler converter with a macro based version. This is all part of the effort to relocate non-sysctl logic out of kernel/sysctl.c into more relevant subsystems. No functional changes. * Generalize proc handler converter creation Removed duplicated sysctl converter logic by consolidating it in macros. These are used inside sysctl core as well as in pipe.c and jiffies.c. Converter kernel and user space pointer args are now automatically const qualified for the convenience of the caller. No functional changes. * Miscellaneous Fixed kernel-doc format warnings, removed unnecessary __user qualifiers, and moved the nmi_watchdog sysctl into .rodata. * Testing This series was run through sysctl selftests/kunit test suite in x86_64. It went into linux-next after rc2, giving it a good 4/5 weeks of testing. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGzBAABCgAdFiEErkcJVyXmMSXOyyeQupfNUreWQU8FAmktuJMACgkQupfNUreW QU9l8Qv+Noh/wLTqBEmHCrQ8k19YCNlBHO6a10Q5bFiAiGdTAMCZ7oFzoAwAjv5y pLtzS75G89zP0O6wgkxTsmoDNi4MRJenOCyjyEDFYvrK+qSTm0CWs0sZCsHqX4Dg 7M+7PVK/EbMO5509J2ae6cYS9pjfwg3EBQZ978b/FATkuhRjxOIJhIv3ZoaFjme4 0q/xqHw+oms5CUL035BfqtkoskIiRT19DAvM/DEjc2ByaHCTGURv00XLvSDHaRer O0Z8nXaxOOCscLunZbC3UL+hC7tB0nPE+XSzm9ylBEM7bTxeZmtvx2G6ru0+873U Sp+BwpFhe0RmzBFlclkd7UPtvGlFAY2QgAfpSaiLsodkoX0mctquTgpy99LhxKej EEyjl9tPVrYoH4MG562bZPGrQHtV4vnR9DXYx56vYtY2Fyr1GZmWawQoMZsHe9AU cVw5HrfeKeHBhk9hi3ZvT9z96ns3YBmIHnYNDeMy+mF/i+cVu///GwgGuFqUqKag 3eWcTaPh =DXVD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sysctl-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sysctl/sysctl Pull sysctl updates from Joel Granados: - Move jiffies converters out of kernel/sysctl.c Move the jiffies converters into kernel/time/jiffies.c and replace the pipe-max-size proc_handler converter with a macro based version.
