- New architecture features
* Support for Armv8.5 E0PD, which benefits KASLR in the same way as
KPTI but without the overhead. This allows KPTI to be disabled on
CPUs that are not affected by Meltdown, even is KASLR is enabled.
* Initial support for the Armv8.5 RNG instructions, which claim to
provide access to a high bandwidth, cryptographically secure hardware
random number generator. As well as exposing these to userspace, we
also use them as part of the KASLR seed and to seed the crng once
all CPUs have come online.
* Advertise a bunch of new instructions to userspace, including support
for Data Gathering Hint, Matrix Multiply and 16-bit floating point.
- Kexec
* Cleanups in preparation for relocating with the MMU enabled
* Support for loading crash dump kernels with kexec_file_load()
- Perf and PMU drivers
* Cleanups and non-critical fixes for a couple of system PMU drivers
- FPU-less (aka broken) CPU support
* Considerable fixes to support CPUs without the FP/SIMD extensions,
including their presence in heterogeneous systems. Good luck finding
a 64-bit userspace that handles this.
- Modern assembly function annotations
* Start migrating our use of ENTRY() and ENDPROC() over to the
new-fangled SYM_{CODE,FUNC}_{START,END} macros, which are intended to
aid debuggers
- Kbuild
* Cleanup detection of LSE support in the assembler by introducing
'as-instr'
* Remove compressed Image files when building clean targets
- IP checksumming
* Implement optimised IPv4 checksumming routine when hardware offload
is not in use. An IPv6 version is in the works, pending testing.
- Hardware errata
* Work around Cortex-A55 erratum #1530923
- Shadow call stack
* Work around some issues with Clang's integrated assembler not liking
our perfectly reasonable assembly code
* Avoid allocating the X18 register, so that it can be used to hold the
shadow call stack pointer in future
- ACPI
* Fix ID count checking in IORT code. This may regress broken firmware
that happened to work with the old implementation, in which case we'll
have to revert it and try something else
* Fix DAIF corruption on return from GHES handler with pseudo-NMIs
- Miscellaneous
* Whitelist some CPUs that are unaffected by Spectre-v2
* Reduce frequency of ASID rollover when KPTI is compiled in but
inactive
* Reserve a couple of arch-specific PROT flags that are already used by
Sparc and PowerPC and are planned for later use with BTI on arm64
* Preparatory cleanup of our entry assembly code in preparation for
moving more of it into C later on
* Refactoring and cleanup

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"The changes are a real mixed bag this time around.
The only scary looking one from the diffstat is the uapi change to
asm-generic/mman-common.h, but this has been acked by Arnd and is
actually just adding a pair of comments in an attempt to prevent
allocation of some PROT values which tend to get used for
arch-specific purposes. We'll be using them for Branch Target
Identification (a CFI-like hardening feature), which is currently
under review on the mailing list.
