Perf and PMU updates:
- Add support for new (v3) Hisilicon SLLC and DDRC PMUs
- Add support for Arm-NI PMU integrations that share interrupts between
clock domains within a given instance
- Allow SPE to be configured with a lower sample period than the
minimum recommendation advertised by PMSIDR_EL1.Interval
- Add suppport for Arm's "Branch Record Buffer Extension" (BRBE)
- Adjust the perf watchdog period according to cpu frequency changes
- Minor driver fixes and cleanups
Hardware features:
- Support for MTE store-only checking (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY)
- Support for reporting the non-address bits during a synchronous MTE
tag check fault (FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR)
- Optimise the TLBI when folding/unfolding contiguous PTEs on hardware
with FEAT_BBM (break-before-make) level 2 and no TLB conflict aborts
Software features:
- Enable HAVE_LIVEPATCH after implementing arch_stack_walk_reliable()
and using the text-poke API for late module relocations
- Force VMAP_STACK always on and change arm64_efi_rt_init() to use
arch_alloc_vmap_stack() in order to avoid KASAN false positives
ACPI:
- Improve SPCR handling and messaging on systems lacking an SPCR table
Debug:
- Simplify the debug exception entry path
- Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros
Kselftests:
- Cleanups and improvements for SME, SVE and FPSIMD tests
Miscellaneous:
- Optimise loop to reduce redundant operations in contpte_ptep_get()
- Remove ISB when resetting POR_EL0 during signal handling
- Mark the kernel as tainted on SEA and SError panic
- Remove redundant gcs_free() call

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"A quick summary: perf support for Branch Record Buffer Extensions
(BRBE), typical PMU hardware updates, small additions to MTE for
store-only tag checking and exposing non-address bits to signal
handlers, HAVE_LIVEPATCH enabled on arm64, VMAP_STACK forced on.
There is also a TLBI optimisation on hardware that does not require
break-before-make when changing the user PTEs between contiguous and
non-contiguous.

KSelfTest ARM64
===============
- These tests are arm64 specific and so not built or run but just skipped
completely when env-variable ARCH is found to be different than 'arm64'
and `uname -m` reports other than 'aarch64'.
- Holding true the above, ARM64 KSFT tests can be run within the KSelfTest
framework using standard Linux top-level-makefile targets:
$ make TARGETS=arm64 kselftest-clean
$ make TARGETS=arm64 kselftest
or
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=arm64 \
INSTALL_PATH=<your-installation-path> install
or, alternatively, only specific arm64/ subtargets can be picked:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=arm64 ARM64_SUBTARGETS="tags signal" \
INSTALL_PATH=<your-installation-path> install
Further details on building and running KFST can be found in:
Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst
