Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "An unfortunately large collection of arm64 fixes for -rc5.

  Some of this is absolutely trivial, but the alternatives, vDSO and CPU
  errata workaround fixes are significant. At least people are finding
  and fixing these things, I suppose.

   - Fix workaround for CPU erratum #1418040 to disable the compat vDSO

   - Fix Oops when single-stepping with KGDB

   - Fix memory attributes for hypervisor device mappings at EL2

   - Fix memory leak in PSCI and remove useless variable assignment

   - Fix up some comments and asm labels in our entry code

   - Fix broken register table formatting in our generated html docs

   - Fix missing NULL sentinel in CPU errata workaround list

   - Fix patching of branches in alternative instruction sections"

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.
