Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
- Support for new architectural features introduced in ARMv8.1:
* Privileged Access Never (PAN) to catch user pointer dereferences in
the kernel
* Large System Extension (LSE) for building scalable atomics and locks
(depends on locking/arch-atomic from tip, which is included here)
* Hardware Dirty Bit Management (DBM) for updating clean PTEs
automatically
- Move our PSCI implementation out into drivers/firmware/, where it can
be shared with arch/arm/. RMK has also pulled this component branch
and has additional patches moving arch/arm/ over. MAINTAINERS is
updated accordingly.
- Better BUG implementation based on the BRK instruction for trapping
- Leaf TLB invalidation for unmapping user pages
- Support for PROBE_ONLY PCI configurations
- Various cleanups and non-critical fixes, including:
* Always flush FP/SIMD state over exec()
* Restrict memblock additions based on range of linear mapping
* Ensure *(LIST_POISON) generates a fatal fault
* Context-tracking syscall return no longer corrupts return value when
not forced on.
* Alternatives patching synchronisation/stability improvements
* Signed sub-word cmpxchg compare fix (tickled by HAVE_CMPXCHG_LOCAL)
* Force SMP=y
* Hide direct DCC access from userspace
* Fix EFI stub memory allocation when DRAM starts at 0x0
* tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (92 commits)
