5c81691bb6 docs: admin-guide/blockdev: Remove digraph of node-states
While node-states-8.dot has two digraphs, the dot(1) command can
not properly handle multiple graphs in a DOT file and the
kernel-doc page at

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/blockdev/drbd/figures.html

fails to render the graphs.

It turned out that the digraph of node_states can be removed.

Quote from Joel's reflection:

    On reflection, the digraph node_states can be removed entirely.
    It is too basic to contain any useful information. In addition
    it references "ioctl_set_state". The ioctl configuration
    interface for DRBD has long been removed. In fact, it was never
    in the upstream version of DRBD.

Remove node_states and rename the DOT file peer_states-8.dot.

755804d169 zram: introduce an aged idle interface
This change introduces an aged idle interface to the existing idle sysfs
file for zram.

When CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled the idle file now also
accepts an integer argument.  This integer is the age (in seconds) of
pages to mark as idle.  The idle file still supports 'all' as it always
has.  This new approach allows for much more control over which pages
get marked as idle.

ac73e3dc8a Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:

 - a few random little subsystems

 - almost all of the MM patches which are staged ahead of linux-next
   material. I'll trickle to post-linux-next work in as the dependents
   get merged up.

Subsystems affected by this patch series: kthread, kbuild, ide, ntfs,
ocfs2, arch, and mm (slab-generic, slab, slub, dax, debug, pagecache,
gup, swap, shmem, memcg, pagemap, mremap, hmm, vmalloc, documentation,
kasan, pagealloc, memory-failure, hugetlb, vmscan, z3fold, compaction,
oom-kill, migration, cma, page-poison, userfaultfd, zswap, zsmalloc,
uaccess, zram, and cleanups).

194e28da1a zram: add stat to gather incompressible pages since zram set up
Currently, zram supports the stat via /sys/block/zram/mm_stat to represent
how many of incompressible pages are stored at the moment but it couldn't
show how many times incompressible pages were wrote down since zram set
up.  It's also good indication to see how zram is effective in the system.

0d8359620d zram: support page writeback
There is demand to writeback specific process pages to backing store
instead of all idles pages in the system due to storage wear out concerns
and to launching latency of apps which are most of the time idle but are
critical for resume latency.

This patch extends the writeback knob to support a specific page
writeback.

Remove use of "rdev" from blockdev/ramdisk.rst and update

"rdev" is considered antiquated, ancient, archaic, obsolete, deprecated
{choose any or all}.

"rdev" was removed from util-linux in 2010:

c0ad0befed Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: DRBD driver
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
