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

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "A bunch of good stuff in here. Worth noting is that we've pulled in
  the x86/mm branch from -tip so that we can make use of the core
  ioremap changes which allow us to put down huge mappings in the
  vmalloc area without screwing up the TLB. Much of the positive
  diffstat is because of the rseq selftest for arm64.

  Summary:

   - Wire up support for qspinlock, replacing our trusty ticket lock
     code

   - Add an IPI to flush_icache_range() to ensure that stale
     instructions fetched into the pipeline are discarded along with the
     I-cache lines

   - Support for the GCC "stackleak" plugin

   - Support for restartable sequences, plus an arm64 port for the
     selftest

   - Kexec/kdump support on systems booting with ACPI

   - Rewrite of our syscall entry code in C, which allows us to zero the
     GPRs on entry from userspace

   - Support for chained PMU counters, allowing 64-bit event counters to
     be constructed on current CPUs

   - Ensure scheduler topology information is kept up-to-date with CPU
     hotplug events

   - Re-enable support for huge vmalloc/IO mappings now that the core
     code has the correct hooks to use break-before-make sequences

   - Miscellaneous, non-critical fixes and cleanups"
