Linus Torvalds 5694cecdb0 arm64 festive updates for 4.21
In the end, we ended up with quite a lot more than I expected:
 
 - Support for ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication in userspace (CRIU and
   kernel-side support to come later)
 
 - Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC that
   is currently undergoing review
 
 - Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec
   payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec
   dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from
   userspace. Kdump will come later (requires updates to libfdt).
 
 - Optimisation of our dynamic CPU feature framework, so that all
   detected features are enabled via a single stop_machine() invocation
 
 - KPTI whitelisting of Cortex-A CPUs unaffected by Meltdown, so that
   they can benefit from global TLB entries when KASLR is not in use
 
 - 52-bit virtual addressing for userspace (kernel remains 48-bit)
 
 - Patch in LSE atomics for per-cpu atomic operations
 
 - Custom preempt.h implementation to avoid unconditional calls to
   preempt_schedule() from preempt_enable()
 
 - Support for the new 'SB' Speculation Barrier instruction
 
 - Vectorised implementation of XOR checksumming and CRC32 optimisations
 
 - Workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum #1165522
 
 - Improved compatibility with Clang/LLD
 
 - Support for TX2 system PMUS for profiling the L3 cache and DMC
 
 - Reflect read-only permissions in the linear map by default
 
 - Ensure MMIO reads are ordered with subsequent calls to Xdelay()
 
 - Initial support for memory hotplug
 
 - Tweak the threshold when we invalidate the TLB by-ASID, so that
   mremap() performance is improved for ranges spanning multiple PMDs.
 
 - Minor refactoring and cleanups
