Linus Torvalds 2605e80d34 arm64 updates for 6.5:
- Support for the Armv8.9 Permission Indirection Extensions. While this
   feature doesn't add new functionality, it enables future support for
   Guarded Control Stacks (GCS) and Permission Overlays.
 
 - User-space support for the Armv8.8 memcpy/memset instructions.
 
 - arm64 perf: support the HiSilicon SoC uncore PMU, Arm CMN sysfs
   identifier, support for the NXP i.MX9 SoC DDRC PMU, fixes and
   cleanups.
 
 - Removal of superfluous ISBs on context switch (following retrospective
   architecture tightening).
 
 - Decode the ISS2 register during faults for additional information to
   help with debugging.
 
 - KPTI clean-up/simplification of the trampoline exit code.
 
 - Addressing several -Wmissing-prototype warnings.
 
 - Kselftest improvements for signal handling and ptrace.
 
 - Fix TPIDR2_EL0 restoring on sigreturn
 
 - Clean-up, robustness improvements of the module allocation code.
 
 - More sysreg conversions to the automatic register/bitfields
   generation.
 
 - CPU capabilities handling cleanup.
 
 - Arm documentation updates: ACPI, ptdump.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
