Linus Torvalds ea1cc20cd4 Merge tag 'v6.6-rc7.vfs.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs fix from Christian Brauner:
 "An openat() call from io_uring triggering an audit call can apparently
  cause the refcount of struct filename to be incremented from multiple
  threads concurrently during async execution, triggering a refcount
  underflow and hitting a BUG_ON(). That bug has been lurking around
  since at least v5.16 apparently.

  Switch to an atomic counter to fix that. The underflow check is
  downgraded from a BUG_ON() to a WARN_ON_ONCE() but we could easily
  remove that check altogether tbh"

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 Restructured Text 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.
