Linux fixes page-table accounting on memory hot-remove
Constructor and destructor mismatches left NR_PAGETABLE wrong when freeing hot-removed tables on x86, arm64, and RISC-V.

By oopsAndrew Jones's v6 series maps IMSIC MSI targets like DMA, letting 64-bit RISC-V turn on IOMMU_DMA, iommufd, and device assignment.
By oopsA redesigned MSI path lets 64-bit RISC-V translate interrupt targets like DMA, unlocking default IOMMU paging and userspace device assignment.
By kexecAndrew Jones posts v4 work to translate device MSIs through the IOMMU, opening default IOMMU_DMA and userspace PCIe assignment on 64-bit RISC-V.
By oopsA 19-patch series from Qualcomm lets RISC-V translate device MSIs like DMA traffic and opens the door to PCIe device assignment in KVM guests.
By kexecA memory-safety race in page-table dumping leads the week’s traffic, alongside a long-lived taskstats truncation, RISC-V IOMMU progress, and a push to delete a BROKEN Qualcomm crypto driver.
