Linus Torvalds 4ba380f616 arm64 updates for 5.5: 
- On ARMv8 CPUs without hardware updates of the access flag, avoid
   failing cow_user_page() on PFN mappings if the pte is old. The patches
   introduce an arch_faults_on_old_pte() macro, defined as false on x86.
   When true, cow_user_page() makes the pte young before attempting
   __copy_from_user_inatomic().
 
 - Covert the synchronous exception handling paths in
   arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S to C.
 
 - FTRACE_WITH_REGS support for arm64.
 
 - ZONE_DMA re-introduced on arm64 to support Raspberry Pi 4
 
 - Several kselftest cases specific to arm64, together with a MAINTAINERS
   update for these files (moved to the ARM64 PORT entry).
 
 - Workaround for a Neoverse-N1 erratum where the CPU may fetch stale
   instructions under certain conditions.
 
 - Workaround for Cortex-A57 and A72 errata where the CPU may
   speculatively execute an AT instruction and associate a VMID with the
   wrong guest page tables (corrupting the TLB).
 
 - Perf updates for arm64: additional PMU topologies on HiSilicon
   platforms, support for CCN-512 interconnect, AXI ID filtering in the
   IMX8 DDR PMU, support for the CCPI2 uncore PMU in ThunderX2.
 
 - GICv3 optimisation to avoid a heavy barrier when accessing the
   ICC_PMR_EL1 register.
 
 - ELF HWCAP documentation updates and clean-up.
 
 - SMC calling convention conduit code clean-up.
 
 - KASLR diagnostics printed during boot
 
 - NVIDIA Carmel CPU added to the KPTI whitelist
 
 - Some arm64 mm clean-ups: use generic free_initrd_mem(), remove stale
   macro, simplify calculation in __create_pgd_mapping(), typos.
 
 - Kconfig clean-ups: CMDLINE_FORCE to depend on CMDLINE, choice for
   endinanness to help with allmodconfig.

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Apart from the arm64-specific bits (core arch and perf, new arm64
  selftests), it touches the generic cow_user_page() (reviewed by
  Kirill) together with a macro for x86 to preserve the existing
  behaviour on this architecture.

  Summary:

   - On ARMv8 CPUs without hardware updates of the access flag, avoid
     failing cow_user_page() on PFN mappings if the pte is old. The
     patches introduce an arch_faults_on_old_pte() macro, defined as
     false on x86. When true, cow_user_page() makes the pte young before
     attempting __copy_from_user_inatomic().

=======================================
Silicon Errata and Software Workarounds
=======================================
Author: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
Date : 27 November 2015
It is an unfortunate fact of life that hardware is often produced with
so-called "errata", which can cause it to deviate from the architecture
under specific circumstances. For hardware produced by ARM, these
errata are broadly classified into the following categories:
========== ========================================================
Category A A critical error without a viable workaround.
Category B A significant or critical error with an acceptable
workaround.
Category C A minor error that is not expected to occur under normal
operation.
========== ========================================================
For more information, consult one of the "Software Developers Errata
Notice" documents available on infocenter.arm.com (registration
required).
As far as Linux is concerned, Category B errata may require some special
treatment in the operating system. For example, avoiding a particular
sequence of code, or configuring the processor in a particular way. A
less common situation may require similar actions in order to declassify
a Category A erratum into a Category C erratum. These are collectively
known as "software workarounds" and are only required in the minority of
cases (e.g. those cases that both require a non-secure workaround *and*
can be triggered by Linux).
For software workarounds that may adversely impact systems unaffected by
the erratum in question, a Kconfig entry is added under "Kernel
Features" -> "ARM errata workarounds via the alternatives framework".
These are enabled by default and patched in at runtime when an affected
CPU is detected. For less-intrusive workarounds, a Kconfig option is not
available and the code is structured (preferably with a comment) in such
a way that the erratum will not be hit.
This approach can make it slightly onerous to determine exactly which
errata are worked around in an arbitrary kernel source tree, so this
file acts as a registry of software workarounds in the Linux Kernel and
will be updated when new workarounds are committed and backported to
stable kernels.
