Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree

 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features.  The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)

 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT

 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64

 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)

 - KASan support for arm64

 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)

 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)

 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework

 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware

 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
   entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)

 - Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64

 - defconfig updates

Now that we strictly forbid absolute relocations in libstub code,
make sure that we don't emit any when CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is enabled,
by stripping the kcrctab sections from the object file. This fixes
a build problem under CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y.

Now that we added special handling to the C files in libstub, move
the one remaining arm64 specific EFI stub C file to libstub as
well, so that it gets the same treatment. This should prevent future
changes from resulting in binaries that may execute incorrectly in
UEFI context.

With efi-entry.S the only remaining EFI stub source file under
arch/arm64, we can also simplify the Makefile logic somewhat.

Since arm64 does not use a builtin decompressor, the EFI stub is built
into the kernel proper. So far, this has been working fine, but actually,
since the stub is in fact a PE/COFF relocatable binary that is executed
at an unknown offset in the 1:1 mapping provided by the UEFI firmware, we
should not be seamlessly sharing code with the kernel proper, which is a
position dependent executable linked at a high virtual offset.

So instead, separate the contents of libstub and its dependencies, by
putting them into their own namespace by prefixing all of its symbols
with __efistub. This way, we have tight control over what parts of the
kernel proper are referenced by the stub.

that its original purpose was to prevent this from happening in the

<title>arm64/efi: Fix boot crash by not padding between EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME regions</title>

<content type='text'>
The new Properties Table feature introduced in UEFIv2.5 may
split memory regions that cover PE/COFF memory images into
separate code and data regions. Since these regions only differ
in the type (runtime code vs runtime data) and the permission
bits, but not in the memory type attributes (UC/WC/WT/WB), the
spec does not require them to be aligned to 64 KB.

Since the relative offset of PE/COFF .text and .data segments
cannot be changed on the fly, this means that we can no longer
pad out those regions to be mappable using 64 KB pages.
Unfortunately, there is no annotation in the UEFI memory map
that identifies data regions that were split off from a code
region, so we must apply this logic to all adjacent runtime
regions whose attributes only differ in the permission bits.

So instead of rounding each memory region to 64 KB alignment at
both ends, only round down regions that are not directly
preceded by another runtime region with the same type
attributes. Since the UEFI spec does not mandate that the memory
map be sorted, this means we also need to sort it first.

Note that this change will result in all EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME
regions whose start addresses are not aligned to the OS page
size to be mapped with executable permissions (i.e., on kernels
compiled with 64 KB pages). However, since these mappings are
only active during the time that UEFI Runtime Services are being
invoked, the window for abuse is rather small.

<title>x86, efi, kasan: #undef memset/memcpy/memmove per arch</title>

<content type='text'>
In not-instrumented code KASAN replaces instrumented memset/memcpy/memmove
with not-instrumented analogues __memset/__memcpy/__memove.

However, on x86 the EFI stub is not linked with the kernel.  It uses
not-instrumented mem*() functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/string.c

So we don't replace them with __mem*() variants in EFI stub.

On ARM64 the EFI stub is linked with the kernel, so we should replace
mem*() functions with __mem*(), because the EFI stub runs before KASAN
sets up early shadow.

So let's move these #undef mem* into arch's asm/efi.h which is also
included by the EFI stub.

Also, this will fix the warning in 32-bit build reported by kbuild test
robot:

	efi-stub-helper.c:599:2: warning: implicit declaration of function 'memcpy'

With the libfdt include fixups to use "" instead of &lt;&gt; in the
latest dtc import in commit 4760597 (scripts/dtc: Update to upstream
version 9d3649bd3be245c9), it is no longer necessary to add explicit
include paths to use libfdt. Remove these across the kernel.

<title>efi/libstub: Retrieve FDT size when loaded from UEFI config table</title>

When allocating memory for the copy of the FDT that the stub
modifies and passes to the kernel, it uses the current size as
an estimate of how much memory to allocate, and increases it page
by page if it turns out to be too small. However, when loading
the FDT from a UEFI configuration table, the estimated size is
left at its default value of zero, and the allocation loop runs
starting from zero all the way up to the allocation size that
finally fits the updated FDT.

Instead, retrieve the size of the FDT from the FDT header when
loading it from the UEFI config table.

Pull EFI fixes from Matt Fleming:

" - Fix regression in DMI sysfs code for handling "End of Table" entry
    and a type bug that could lead to integer overflow. (Ivan Khoronzhuk)

  - Fix boundary checking in efi_high_alloc() which can lead to memory
    corruption in the EFI boot stubs. (Yinghai Lu)"
