Linus Torvalds 04759194dc arm64 updates for 4.14:
- VMAP_STACK support, allowing the kernel stacks to be allocated in
   the vmalloc space with a guard page for trapping stack overflows. One
   of the patches introduces THREAD_ALIGN and changes the generic
   alloc_thread_stack_node() to use this instead of THREAD_SIZE (no
   functional change for other architectures)
 
 - Contiguous PTE hugetlb support re-enabled (after being reverted a
   couple of times). We now have the semantics agreed in the generic mm
   layer together with API improvements so that the architecture code can
   detect between contiguous and non-contiguous huge PTEs
 
 - Initial support for persistent memory on ARM: DC CVAP instruction
   exposed to user space (HWCAP) and the in-kernel pmem API implemented
 
 - raid6 improvements for arm64: faster algorithm for the delta syndrome
   and implementation of the recovery routines using Neon
 
 - FP/SIMD refactoring and removal of support for Neon in interrupt
   context. This is in preparation for full SVE support
 
 - PTE accessors converted from inline asm to cmpxchg so that we can
   use LSE atomics if available (ARMv8.1)
 
 - Perf support for Cortex-A35 and A73
 
 - Non-urgent fixes and cleanups
