Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "I'm sad to say that we've got an unusually large arm64 fixes pull for
  rc7 which addresses numerous significant instrumentation issues with
  our entry code.

  Without these patches, lockdep is hopelessly unreliable in some
  configurations [1,2] and syzkaller is therefore not a lot of use
  because it's so noisy.

  Although much of this has always been broken, it appears to have been
  exposed more readily by other changes such as 044d0d6de9 ("lockdep:
  Only trace IRQ edges") and general lockdep improvements around IRQ
  tracing and NMIs.

  Fixing this properly required moving much of the instrumentation hooks
  from our entry assembly into C, which Mark has been working on for the
  last few weeks. We're not quite ready to move to the recently added
  generic functions yet, but the code here has been deliberately written
  to mimic that closely so we can look at cleaning things up once we
  have a bit more breathing room.

  Having said all that, the second version of these patches was posted
  last week and I pushed it into our CI (kernelci and cki) along with a
  commit which forced on PROVE_LOCKING, NOHZ_FULL and
  CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE. The result? We found a real bug in the
  md/raid10 code [3].

  Oh, and there's also a really silly typo patch that's unrelated.

  Summary:

   - Fix numerous issues with instrumentation and exception entry

   - Fix hideous typo in unused register field definition"

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 Restructured Text 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.
