 "Features:

   - Optimize close_range() from O(range size) to O(active FDs) by using
     find_next_bit() on the open_fds bitmap instead of linearly scanning
     the entire requested range. This is a significant improvement for
     large-range close operations on sparse file descriptor tables.

   - Add FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute for fs-verity files, retrievable
     via FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR and file_getattr(). The flag is read-only.
     Add tracepoints for fs-verity enable and verify operations,
     replacing the previously removed debug printk's.

   - Prevent nfsd from exporting special kernel filesystems like pidfs
     and nsfs. These filesystems have custom ->open() and ->permission()
     export methods that are designed for open_by_handle_at(2) only and
     are incompatible with nfsd. Update the exportfs documentation
     accordingly.

  Fixes:

   - Fix KMSAN uninit-value in ovl_fill_real() where strcmp() was used
     on a non-null-terminated decrypted directory entry name from
     fscrypt. This triggered on encrypted lower layers when the
     decrypted name buffer contained uninitialized tail data.

     The fix also adds VFS-level name_is_dot(), name_is_dotdot(), and
     name_is_dot_dotdot() helpers, replacing various open-coded "." and
     ".." checks across the tree.

   - Fix read-only fsflags not being reset together with xflags in
     vfs_fileattr_set(). Currently harmless since no read-only xflags
     overlap with flags, but this would cause inconsistencies for any
     future shared read-only flag

   - Return -EREMOTE instead of -ESRCH from PIDFD_GET_INFO when the
     target process is in a different pid namespace. This lets userspace
     distinguish "process exited" from "process in another namespace",
     matching glibc's pidfd_getpid() behavior

  Cleanups:

   - Use C-string literals in the Rust seq_file bindings, replacing the
     kernel::c_str!() macro (available since Rust 1.77)

   - Fix typo in d_walk_ret enum comment, add porting notes for the
     readlink_copy() calling convention change"
