This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Convert 9p to the new mount API. This patch consolidates all parsing
into fs/9p/v9fs.c, which stores all results into a filesystem context
which can be passed to the various transports as needed.
Some of the parsing helper functions such as get_cache_mode() have been
eliminated in favor of using the new mount API's enum param type,
for simplicity.

While developing a 9P server (https://github.com/Barre/ZeroFS) and
testing it under high-load, I was running into allocation failures.
The failures occur even with plenty of free memory available because
kmalloc requires contiguous physical memory.
This results in errors like:
ls: page allocation failure: order:7, mode:0x40c40(GFP_NOFS|__GFP_COMP)
This patch introduces a transport capability flag (supports_vmalloc)
that indicates whether a transport can work with vmalloc'd buffers
(non-physically contiguous memory). Transports requiring DMA should
leave this flag as false.
The fd-based transports (tcp, unix, fd) set this flag to true, and
p9_fcall_init will use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc for these
transports. This allows the allocator to fall back to vmalloc when
contiguous physical memory is not available.
Additionally, if kmem_cache_alloc fails, the code falls back to
kvmalloc for transports that support it.

A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the USB 9pfs transport layer
where inconsistent size validation between packet header parsing and
actual data copying allows a malicious USB host to overflow heap buffers.
The issue occurs because:
- usb9pfs_rx_header() validates only the declared size in packet header
- usb9pfs_rx_complete() uses req->actual (actual received bytes) for
memcpy
This allows an attacker to craft packets with small declared size
(bypassing validation) but large actual payload (triggering overflow
in memcpy).
Add validation in usb9pfs_rx_complete() to ensure req->actual does not
exceed the buffer capacity before copying data.

On the linux-next, next-20241108 vanilla kernel, the coccinelle tool gave the
following error report:
./net/9p/trans_usbg.c:912:5-11: ERROR: allocation function on line 911 returns
NULL not ERR_PTR on failure
kzalloc() failure is fixed to handle the NULL return case on the memory exhaustion.

Add the new gadget function for 9pfs transport. This function is
defining an simple 9pfs transport interface that consists of one in and
one out endpoint. The endpoints transmit and receive the 9pfs protocol
payload when mounting a 9p filesystem over usb.
