Linus Torvalds c620f7bd0b arm64 updates for 5.2
Mostly just incremental improvements here:
 
 - Introduce AT_HWCAP2 for advertising CPU features to userspace
 
 - Expose SVE2 availability to userspace
 
 - Support for "data cache clean to point of deep persistence" (DC PODP)
 
 - Honour "mitigations=off" on the cmdline and advertise status via sysfs
 
 - CPU timer erratum workaround (Neoverse-N1 #1188873)
 
 - Introduce perf PMU driver for the SMMUv3 performance counters
 
 - Add config option to disable the kuser helpers page for AArch32 tasks
 
 - Futex modifications to ensure liveness under contention
 
 - Rework debug exception handling to seperate kernel and user handlers
 
 - Non-critical fixes and cleanup

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.
