Linus Torvalds a4fdb2a46f arm64 updates for 4.3:
- Support for new architectural features introduced in ARMv8.1:
   * Privileged Access Never (PAN) to catch user pointer dereferences in
     the kernel
   * Large System Extension (LSE) for building scalable atomics and locks
     (depends on locking/arch-atomic from tip, which is included here)
   * Hardware Dirty Bit Management (DBM) for updating clean PTEs
     automatically
 
 - Move our PSCI implementation out into drivers/firmware/, where it can
   be shared with arch/arm/. RMK has also pulled this component branch
   and has additional patches moving arch/arm/ over. MAINTAINERS is
   updated accordingly.
 
 - Better BUG implementation based on the BRK instruction for trapping
 
 - Leaf TLB invalidation for unmapping user pages
 
 - Support for PROBE_ONLY PCI configurations
 
 - Various cleanups and non-critical fixes, including:
   * Always flush FP/SIMD state over exec()
   * Restrict memblock additions based on range of linear mapping
   * Ensure *(LIST_POISON) generates a fatal fault
   * Context-tracking syscall return no longer corrupts return value when
     not forced on.
   * Alternatives patching synchronisation/stability improvements
   * Signed sub-word cmpxchg compare fix (tickled by HAVE_CMPXCHG_LOCAL)
   * Force SMP=y
   * Hide direct DCC access from userspace
   * Fix EFI stub memory allocation when DRAM starts at 0x0
