Merge tag 'v6.6-fs.proc.uapi' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull procfs fixes from Christian Brauner:
 "Mode changes to files under /proc/<pid>/ aren't supported ever since
  commit 6d76fa58b0 ("Don't allow chmod() on the /proc/<pid>/ files").

  Due to an oversight in commit 1b3044e39a ("procfs: fix pthread
  cross-thread naming if !PR_DUMPABLE") in switching from REG to NOD,
  mode changes on /proc/thread-self/comm were accidently allowed.

  Similar, mode changes for all files beneath /proc/<pid>/net/ are
  blocked but mode changes on /proc/<pid>/net itself were accidently
  allowed.

  Both issues come down to not using the generic proc_setattr() helper
  which blocks all mode changes. This is rectified with this pull
  request.

  This also removes a strange nolibc test that abused /proc/<pid>/net
  for testing mode changes. Using procfs for this test never made a lot
  of sense given procfs has special semantics for almost everything
  anway.

  Both changes are minor user-visible changes. It is however very
  unlikely that mode changes on proc/<pid>/net and
  /proc/thread-self/comm are something that userspace relies on"

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.
