Merge tag 'mm-hotfixes-stable-2025-04-19-21-24' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull misc hotfixes from Andrew Morton:
 "16 hotfixes. 2 are cc:stable and the remainder address post-6.14
  issues or aren't considered necessary for -stable kernels.

  All patches are basically for MM although five are alterations to
  MAINTAINERS"

[ Basic counting skills are clearly not a strictly necessary requirement
  for kernel maintainers.     - Linus ]
