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

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "A larger-than-usual batch of arm64 fixes for -rc3.

  The bulk of the fixes are dealing with a bunch of issues with the
  build system from the compat vDSO, which unfortunately led to some
  significant Makefile rework to manage the horrible combinations of
  toolchains that we can end up needing to drive simultaneously.

  We came close to disabling the thing entirely, but Vincenzo was quick
  to spin up some patches and I ended up picking up most of the bits
  that were left [*]. Future work will look at disentangling the header
  files properly.

  Other than that, we have some important fixes all over, including one
  papering over the miscompilation fallout from forcing
  CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y, which I'm still unhappy about. Harumph.

  We've still got a couple of open issues, so I'm expecting to have some
  more fixes later this cycle.

  Summary:

   - Numerous fixes to the compat vDSO build system, especially when
     combining gcc and clang

   - Fix parsing of PAR_EL1 in spurious kernel fault detection

   - Partial workaround for Neoverse-N1 erratum #1542419

   - Fix IRQ priority masking on entry from compat syscalls

   - Fix advertisment of FRINT HWCAP to userspace

   - Attempt to workaround inlining breakage with '__always_inline'

   - Fix accidental freeing of parent SVE state on fork() error path

   - Add some missing NULL pointer checks in instruction emulation init

   - Some formatting and comment fixes"

    but they were already in linux-next by then and he didn't rebase
    just to add those.

README

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.
