Linus Torvalds e831101a73 arm64 updates for 4.8:
- Kexec support for arm64
 - Kprobes support
 - Expose MIDR_EL1 and REVIDR_EL1 CPU identification registers to sysfs
 - Trapping of user space cache maintenance operations and emulation in
   the kernel (CPU errata workaround)
 - Clean-up of the early page tables creation (kernel linear mapping, EFI
   run-time maps) to avoid splitting larger blocks (e.g. pmds) into
   smaller ones (e.g. ptes)
 - VDSO support for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in clock_gettime()
 - ARCH_HAS_KCOV enabled for arm64
 - Optimise IP checksum helpers
 - SWIOTLB optimisation to only allocate/initialise the buffer if the
   available RAM is beyond the 32-bit mask
 - Properly handle the "nosmp" command line argument
 - Fix for the initialisation of the CPU debug state during early boot
 - vdso-offsets.h build dependency workaround
 - Build fix when RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled with MODULES off
