Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "There's good stuff across the board, including some nice mm
  improvements for CPUs with the 'noabort' BBML2 feature and a clever
  patch to allow ptdump to play nicely with block mappings in the
  vmalloc area.
  Confidential computing:
   - Add support for accepting secrets from firmware (e.g. ACPI CCEL)
     and mapping them with appropriate attributes.
  CPU features:
   - Advertise atomic floating-point instructions to userspace
   - Extend Spectre workarounds to cover additional Arm CPU variants
   - Extend list of CPUs that support break-before-make level 2 and
     guarantee not to generate TLB conflict aborts for changes of
     mapping granularity (BBML2_NOABORT)
   - Add GCS support to our uprobes implementation.
  Documentation:
   - Remove bogus SME documentation concerning register state when
     entering/exiting streaming mode.
  Entry code:
   - Switch over to the generic IRQ entry code (GENERIC_IRQ_ENTRY)
   - Micro-optimise syscall entry path with a compiler branch hint.
  Memory management:
   - Enable huge mappings in vmalloc space even when kernel page-table
     dumping is enabled
   - Tidy up the types used in our early MMU setup code
   - Rework rodata= for closer parity with the behaviour on x86
   - For CPUs implementing BBML2_NOABORT, utilise block mappings in the
     linear map even when rodata= applies to virtual aliases
   - Don't re-allocate the virtual region between '_text' and '_stext',
     as doing so confused tools parsing /proc/vmcore.
  Miscellaneous:
   - Clean-up Kconfig menuconfig text for architecture features
   - Avoid redundant bitmap_empty() during determination of supported
     SME vector lengths
   - Re-enable warnings when building the 32-bit vDSO object
   - Avoid breaking our eggs at the wrong end.
  Perf and PMUs:
   - Support for v3 of the Hisilicon L3C PMU
   - Support for Hisilicon's MN and NoC PMUs
   - Support for Fujitsu's Uncore PMU
   - Support for SPE's extended event filtering feature
   - Preparatory work to enable data source filtering in SPE
   - Support for multiple lanes in the DWC PCIe PMU
   - Support for i.MX94 in the IMX DDR PMU driver
   - MAINTAINERS update (Thank you, Yicong)
   - Minor driver fixes (PERF_IDX2OFF() overflow, CMN register offsets).
  Selftests:
   - Add basic LSFE check to the existing hwcaps test
   - Support nolibc in GCS tests
   - Extend SVE ptrace test to pass unsupported regsets and invalid
     vector lengths
   - Minor cleanups (typos, cosmetic changes).
  System registers:
   - Fix ID_PFR1_EL1 definition
   - Fix incorrect signedness of some fields in ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1
   - Sync TCR_EL1 definition with the latest Arm ARM (L.b)
   - Be stricter about the input fed into our AWK sysreg generator
     script
   - Typo fixes and removal of redundant definitions.
  ACPI, EFI and PSCI:
   - Decouple Arm's "Software Delegated Exception Interface" (SDEI)
     support from the ACPI GHES code so that it can be used by platforms
     booted with device-tree
   - Remove unnecessary per-CPU tracking of the FPSIMD state across EFI
     runtime calls
   - Fix a node refcount imbalance in the PSCI device-tree code.
  CPU Features:
   - Ensure register sanitisation is applied to fields in ID_AA64MMFR4
   - Expose AIDR_EL1 to userspace via sysfs, primarily so that KVM
     guests can reliably query the underlying CPU types from the VMM
   - Re-enabling of SME support (CONFIG_ARM64_SME) as a result of fixes
     to our context-switching, signal handling and ptrace code"
