linux

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Kexec support for arm64

 - Kprobes support

 - Expose MIDR_EL1 and REVIDR_EL1 CPU identification registers to sysfs

 - Trapping of user space cache maintenance operations and emulation in
   the kernel (CPU errata workaround)

 - Clean-up of the early page tables creation (kernel linear mapping,
   EFI run-time maps) to avoid splitting larger blocks (e.g.  pmds) into
   smaller ones (e.g.  ptes)

 - VDSO support for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in clock_gettime()

 - ARCH_HAS_KCOV enabled for arm64

 - Optimise IP checksum helpers

 - SWIOTLB optimisation to only allocate/initialise the buffer if the
   available RAM is beyond the 32-bit mask

 - Properly handle the "nosmp" command line argument

 - Fix for the initialisation of the CPU debug state during early boot

 - vdso-offsets.h build dependency workaround

 - Build fix when RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled with MODULES off
