After the last architecture switched to generic hard irqs the config
options HAVE_GENERIC_HARDIRQS & GENERIC_HARDIRQS and the related code
for !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed.

Add <asm/neon.h> containing kernel_neon_begin/kernel_neon_end function
declarations and corresponding definitions in fpsimd.c
These are needed to wrap uses of NEON in kernel mode. The names are
identical to the ones used in arm/ so code using intrinsics or
vectorized by GCC can be shared between arm and arm64.

Bring Transparent HugePage support to ARM. The size of a
transparent huge page depends on the normal page size. A
transparent huge page is always represented as a pmd.
If PAGE_SIZE is 4KB, THPs are 2MB.
If PAGE_SIZE is 64KB, THPs are 512MB.

The buddy allocator has a default MAX_ORDER of 11, which is too
low to allocate enough memory for 512MB Transparent HugePages if
our base page size is 64KB.
This patch introduces MAX_ZONE_ORDER and sets it to 14 when 64KB
pages are used in conjuction with THP, otherwise the default value
of 11 is used.

Add huge page support to ARM64, different huge page sizes are
supported depending on the size of normal pages:
PAGE_SIZE is 4KB:
2MB - (pmds) these can be allocated at any time.
1024MB - (puds) usually allocated on bootup with the command line
with something like: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=6
PAGE_SIZE is 64KB:
512MB - (pmds) usually allocated on bootup via command line.

As is done for other architectures, sort the exception table at
build-time rather than during boot.
Since sortextable appears to be a standalone C program relying on the

order to allow cross-compilation on machines that aren't running a

An architecture should not unconditionally enable 'GENERIC_GPIO'
without providing an implementation. In case of arm64, selecting
ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB is the right solution, because it
lets us enable GPIOLIB when configuring the kernel, and that
implicitly turns on GENERIC_GPIO.

other patches merged through the arm-soc tree. In combination with

Further, we now have a separate platform for virtual machines and qemu

Versatile Express reference implementation. Obviously, this new
platform is multiplatform capable so it can be combined with existing
machines in the same kernel."

The arch_timer driver supports a superset of the functionality of the
arm_generic driver, and is not tied to a particular arch.
This patch moves arm64 to use the arch_timer driver, gaining additional
functionality in doing so, and removes the (now unused) arm_generic
driver. Timer-related hooks specific to arm64 are moved into
arch/arm64/kernel/time.c.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."
