Linus Torvalds 410feb75de arm64 updates for 4.18:
- Spectre v4 mitigation (Speculative Store Bypass Disable) support for
   arm64 using SMC firmware call to set a hardware chicken bit
 
 - ACPI PPTT (Processor Properties Topology Table) parsing support and
   enable the feature for arm64
 
 - Report signal frame size to user via auxv (AT_MINSIGSTKSZ). The
   primary motivation is Scalable Vector Extensions which requires more
   space on the signal frame than the currently defined MINSIGSTKSZ
 
 - ARM perf patches: allow building arm-cci as module, demote dev_warn()
   to dev_dbg() in arm-ccn event_init(), miscellaneous cleanups
 
 - cmpwait() WFE optimisation to avoid some spurious wakeups
 
 - L1_CACHE_BYTES reverted back to 64 (for performance reasons that have
   to do with some network allocations) while keeping ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN
   to 128. cache_line_size() returns the actual hardware Cache Writeback
   Granule
 
 - Turn LSE atomics on by default in Kconfig
 
 - Kernel fault reporting tidying
 
 - Some #include and miscellaneous cleanups

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Apart from the core arm64 and perf changes, the Spectre v4 mitigation
  touches the arm KVM code and the ACPI PPTT support touches drivers/
  (acpi and cacheinfo). I should have the maintainers' acks in place.

  Summary:

   - Spectre v4 mitigation (Speculative Store Bypass Disable) support
     for arm64 using SMC firmware call to set a hardware chicken bit

   - ACPI PPTT (Processor Properties Topology Table) parsing support and
     enable the feature for arm64

   - Report signal frame size to user via auxv (AT_MINSIGSTKSZ). The
     primary motivation is Scalable Vector Extensions which requires
     more space on the signal frame than the currently defined
     MINSIGSTKSZ

   - ARM perf patches: allow building arm-cci as module, demote
     dev_warn() to dev_dbg() in arm-ccn event_init(), miscellaneous
     cleanups

   - cmpwait() WFE optimisation to avoid some spurious wakeups

   - L1_CACHE_BYTES reverted back to 64 (for performance reasons that
     have to do with some network allocations) while keeping
     ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to 128. cache_line_size() returns the actual
     hardware Cache Writeback Granule

   - Turn LSE atomics on by default in Kconfig

   - Kernel fault reporting tidying

   - Some #include and miscellaneous cleanups"
