Currently, whether the alloc/free stack traces collection is enabled by
default for hardware tag-based KASAN depends on CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL.
The intention for this dependency was to only enable collection on slow
debug kernels due to a significant perf and memory impact.
As it turns out, CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL is not considered a debug option
and is enabled on many productions kernels including Android and Ubuntu.
As the result, this dependency is pointless and only complicates the
code and documentation.
Having stack traces collection disabled by default would make the
hardware mode work differently to to the software ones, which is
confusing.
This change removes the dependency and enables stack traces collection
by default.
Looking into the future, this default might makes sense for production
kernels, assuming we implement a fast stack trace collection approach.

Merge KASAN updates from Andrew Morton.
This adds a new hardware tag-based mode to KASAN. The new mode is
similar to the existing software tag-based KASAN, but relies on arm64
Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) to perform memory and pointer tagging
(instead of shadow memory and compiler instrumentation).

"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:
- kernel-doc markup fixes
- ReST fixes
- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of

After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).
As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.
The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.
PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

Pull kselftest updates from Shuah Khan:
- speed up headers_install done during selftest build
- add generic make nesting support
- add support to select individual tests:
Selftests build/install generates run_kselftest.sh script to run
selftests on a target system. Currently the script doesn't have
support for selecting individual tests. Add support for it.
With this enhancement, user can select test collections (or tests)
individually. e.g:
run_kselftest.sh -c seccomp -t timers:posix_timers -t timers:nanosleep
Additionally adds a way to list all known tests with "-l", usage with
"-h", and perform a dry run without running tests with "-n".

Which Sphinx 3, :c:type: can't be used anymore for structs,
as this should be used only for typedefs.
Rely on automarkup.py for struct references.
This file has an special case, though: it uses the tag also
to point to an array. Let's use, instead, :c:expr: for such
purpose, as it should do the right thing.
