Hi Linus,

Could you consider this pull request for 5.12-rc1?

This contains a somewhat important but rarely reproduced fix
reported month ago for platforms which have weak memory model
(e.g. arm64). The root cause is that test_bit/set_bit atomic
operations are actually implemented in relaxed forms, and
uninitialized fields governed by an atomic bit could be observed
in advance due to memory reordering thus memory barrier pairs
should be used. There is also a trivial fix of crafted blkszbits
generated by syzkaller.

All commits have been tested and have been in linux-next for
more than a week. This merges cleanly with master.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
