Pull futex updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Standardize on ktime_t in restart_block::time as well (Thomas
Weißschuh)
- Futex selftests:
- Add robust list testcases (André Almeida)
- Formatting fixes/cleanups (Carlos Llamas)
* tag 'locking-futex-2025-12-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
futex: Store time as ktime_t in restart block
selftests/futex: Create test for robust list
selftests/futex: Skip tests if shmget unsupported
selftests/futex: Add newline to ksft_exit_fail_msg()
selftests/futex: Remove unused test_futex_mpol()
To reduce the boilerplate code, refactor futex_wait test to use
kselftest_harness header instead of futex's logging header.

There are three different strategies to uniquely identify a futex in the
kernel:
- Private futexes: uses the pointer to mm_struct and the page address
- Shared futexes: checks if the page containing the address is a PageAnon:
- If it is, uses the same data as a private futexes
- If it isn't, uses an inode sequence number from struct inode and
the page's index
Create a selftest to check those three paths and basic wait/wake
mechanism.
