Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"The bulk is in-kernel pointer authentication, activity monitors and
lots of asm symbol annotations. I also queued the sys_mremap() patch
commenting the asymmetry in the address untagging.
Summary:
- In-kernel Pointer Authentication support (previously only offered
to user space).
- ARM Activity Monitors (AMU) extension support allowing better CPU
utilisation numbers for the scheduler (frequency invariance).
- Memory hot-remove support for arm64.
- Lots of asm annotations (SYM_*) in preparation for the in-kernel
Branch Target Identification (BTI) support.
- arm64 perf updates: ARMv8.5-PMU 64-bit counters, refactoring the
PMU init callbacks, support for new DT compatibles.
- IPv6 header checksum optimisation.
- Fixes: SDEI (software delegated exception interface) double-lock on
hibernate with shared events.
- Minor clean-ups and refactoring: cpu_ops accessor,
cpu_do_switch_mm() converted to C, cpufeature finalisation helper.
- sys_mremap() comment explaining the asymmetric address untagging
behaviour"
