Linus Torvalds 7278212738 Modules fixes for 6.16-rc6 
This includes 2 fixes: one introduced in the current release cycle (v6.16-rc1)
 and another introduced back in v6.4-rc1. Both have been in linux-next since
 next-250701 and have passed the modules ci tests using kdevops. Finally, as Petr
 and Luis mentioned in previous pull requests, add myself (Daniel Gomez) to the
 list of modules maintainers.
 
 The first was reported by Intel's kernel test robot, and it addresses a crash
 exposed by Sebastian's commit c50d295c37 ("rds: Use nested-BH locking for
 rds_page_remainder") by allowing relocations for the per-CPU section even if it
 lacks the SHF_ALLOC flag. Petr and Sebastian went down to the archive history
 (before Git) and found the commit that broke it b3b91325f3c7 ("Don't relocate
 non-allocated regions in modules.").
 
 The second fix, reported and fixed by Petr (with additional cleanup), resolves a
 memory leak by ensuring proper deallocation if module loading fails. We couldn't
 find a reproducer other than forcing it manually or leveraging eBPF. So, I
 tested it by enabling error injection in the codetag functions through the error
 path that produces the leak and made it fail until execmem is unable to allocate
 more memory.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
