Pull arm64 festive updates from Will Deacon:
 "In the end, we ended up with quite a lot more than I expected:

   - Support for ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication in userspace (CRIU and
     kernel-side support to come later)

   - Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC
     that is currently undergoing review

   - Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec
     payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec
     dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from
     userspace. Kdump will come later (requires updates to libfdt).

   - Optimisation of our dynamic CPU feature framework, so that all
     detected features are enabled via a single stop_machine()
     invocation

   - KPTI whitelisting of Cortex-A CPUs unaffected by Meltdown, so that
     they can benefit from global TLB entries when KASLR is not in use

   - 52-bit virtual addressing for userspace (kernel remains 48-bit)

   - Patch in LSE atomics for per-cpu atomic operations

   - Custom preempt.h implementation to avoid unconditional calls to
     preempt_schedule() from preempt_enable()

   - Support for the new 'SB' Speculation Barrier instruction

   - Vectorised implementation of XOR checksumming and CRC32
     optimisations

   - Workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum #1165522

   - Improved compatibility with Clang/LLD

   - Support for TX2 system PMUS for profiling the L3 cache and DMC

   - Reflect read-only permissions in the linear map by default

   - Ensure MMIO reads are ordered with subsequent calls to Xdelay()

   - Initial support for memory hotplug

   - Tweak the threshold when we invalidate the TLB by-ASID, so that
     mremap() performance is improved for ranges spanning multiple PMDs.

   - Minor refactoring and cleanups"

On the affected Cortex-A76 cores (r0p0 to r3p0), if a virtual address
for a cacheable mapping of a location is being accessed by a core while
another core is remapping the virtual address to a new physical page
using the recommended break-before-make sequence, then under very rare
circumstances TLBI+DSB completes before a read using the translation
being invalidated has been observed by other observers. The workaround
repeats the TLBI+DSB operation and is shared with the Qualcomm Falkor
erratum 1009

Arm v8 architecture supports multiple page sizes - 4k, 16k and
64k. Based on the active page size, the Linux port supports
corresponding hugepage sizes at PMD and PUD(4k only) levels.

In addition, the architecture also supports caching larger sized
ranges (composed of multiple entries) at the PTE and PMD level in the
TLBs using the contiguous bit. The Linux port makes use of this
architectural support to enable additional hugepage sizes.

Describe the two different types of hugepages supported by the arm64
kernel and the hugepage sizes enabled by each.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:
   - VHE optimizations

   - EL2 address space randomization

   - speculative execution mitigations ("variant 3a", aka execution past
     invalid privilege register access)

   - bugfixes and cleanups

  PPC:
   - improvements for the radix page fault handler for HV KVM on POWER9

  s390:
   - more kvm stat counters

   - virtio gpu plumbing

   - documentation

   - facilities improvements

  x86:
   - support for VMware magic I/O port and pseudo-PMCs

   - AMD pause loop exiting

   - support for AMD core performance extensions

   - support for synchronous register access

   - expose nVMX capabilities to userspace

   - support for Hyper-V signaling via eventfd

   - use Enlightened VMCS when running on Hyper-V

   - allow userspace to disable MWAIT/HLT/PAUSE vmexits

   - usual roundup of optimizations and nested virtualization bugfixes

  Generic:
   - API selftest infrastructure (though the only tests are for x86 as
     of now)"
