Rename the storage_get_func_atomic flag to a more generic non_sleepable flag that tracks whether a helper or kfunc may be called from a non-sleepable context. This makes the flag more broadly applicable beyond just storage_get helpers. See [0] for more context. The flag is now set unconditionally for all helpers and kfuncs when: - RCU critical section is active. - Preemption is disabled. - IRQs are disabled. - In a non-sleepable context within a sleepable program (e.g., timer callbacks), which is indicated by !in_sleepable(). Previously, the flag was only set for storage_get helpers in these contexts. With this change, it can be used by any code that needs to differentiate between sleepable and non-sleepable contexts at the per-instruction level. The existing usage in do_misc_fixups() for storage_get helpers is preserved by checking is_storage_get_function() before using the flag.

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 reStructuredText 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.
