Pull ARM64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Generic execve, kernel_thread, fork/vfork/clone.

 - Preparatory patches for KVM support (initialising EL2 mode for later
   installing KVM support, hypervisor stub).

 - Signal handling corner case fix (alternative signal stack set up for
   a SEGV handler, which is raised in response to RLIMIT_STACK being
   reached).

 - Sub-nanosecond timer error fix.

<title>tracing,x86: Add a TSC trace_clock</title>

<id>8cbd9cc6254065c97c4bac42daa55ba1abe73a8e</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.

Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.

v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

<title>arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly code</title>

<id>aeed41a9371ee02257b608eb06a9058507a7d0f4</id>
<content type='text'>
An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h
is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have
even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this:

ENTRY(func1)
	mov	x0, xzr
ENDPROC(func1)
	// fall through
ENTRY(func2)
	mov	x0, #1
	ret
ENDPROC(func2)

Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another
architecture doesn't look completely sane either.

The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion
of proper AArch64 NOPs.
