Merge tag 'vfs-6.7.xattr' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull vfs xattr updates from Christian Brauner:
 "The 's_xattr' field of 'struct super_block' currently requires a
  mutable table of 'struct xattr_handler' entries (although each handler
  itself is const). However, no code in vfs actually modifies the
  tables.

  This changes the type of 's_xattr' to allow const tables, and modifies
  existing file systems to move their tables to .rodata. This is
  desirable because these tables contain entries with function pointers
  in them; moving them to .rodata makes it considerably less likely to
  be modified accidentally or maliciously at runtime"

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 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.
