Merge tag 'overflow-v5.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux

Pull overflow updates from Kees Cook:
 "These changes come in roughly two halves: support of Gustavo A. R.
  Silva's struct_size() work via additional helpers for catching
  overflow allocation size calculations, and conversions of selftests to
  KUnit (which includes some tweaks for UML + Clang):

   - Convert overflow selftest to KUnit

   - Convert stackinit selftest to KUnit

   - Implement size_t saturating arithmetic helpers

   - Allow struct_size() to be used in initializers"

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.
