- Removal of the tremendously unpopular read_barrier_depends() barrier,
which is a NOP on all architectures apart from Alpha, in favour of
allowing architectures to override READ_ONCE() and do whatever dance
they need to do to ensure address dependencies provide LOAD ->
LOAD/STORE ordering. This work also offers a potential solution if
compilers are shown to convert LOAD -> LOAD address dependencies into
control dependencies (e.g. under LTO), as weakly ordered architectures
will effectively be able to upgrade READ_ONCE() to smp_load_acquire().
The latter case is not used yet, but will be discussed further at LPC.
- Make the MSI/IOMMU input/output ID translation PCI agnostic, augment
the MSI/IOMMU ACPI/OF ID mapping APIs to accept an input ID
bus-specific parameter and apply the resulting changes to the device
ID space provided by the Freescale FSL bus.
- arm64 support for TLBI range operations and translation table level
hints (part of the ARMv8.4 architecture version).
- Time namespace support for arm64.
- Export the virtual and physical address sizes in vmcoreinfo for
makedumpfile and crash utilities.
- CPU feature handling cleanups and checks for programmer errors
(overlapping bit-fields).
- ACPI updates for arm64: disallow AML accesses to EFI code regions and
kernel memory.
- perf updates for arm64.
- Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups, most notably PLT counting
optimisation for module loading, recordmcount fix to ignore
relocations other than R_AARCH64_CALL26, CMA areas reserved for
gigantic pages on 16K and 64K configurations.
- Trivial typos, duplicate words.

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 and cross-arch updates from Catalin Marinas:
"Here's a slightly wider-spread set of updates for 5.9.
Going outside the usual arch/arm64/ area is the removal of
read_barrier_depends() series from Will and the MSI/IOMMU ID
translation series from Lorenzo.
The notable arm64 updates include ARMv8.4 TLBI range operations and
translation level hint, time namespace support, and perf.
Summary:
- Removal of the tremendously unpopular read_barrier_depends()
barrier, which is a NOP on all architectures apart from Alpha, in
favour of allowing architectures to override READ_ONCE() and do
whatever dance they need to do to ensure address dependencies
provide LOAD -> LOAD/STORE ordering.
This work also offers a potential solution if compilers are shown
to convert LOAD -> LOAD address dependencies into control
dependencies (e.g. under LTO), as weakly ordered architectures will
effectively be able to upgrade READ_ONCE() to smp_load_acquire().
The latter case is not used yet, but will be discussed further at
LPC.
- Make the MSI/IOMMU input/output ID translation PCI agnostic,
augment the MSI/IOMMU ACPI/OF ID mapping APIs to accept an input ID
bus-specific parameter and apply the resulting changes to the
device ID space provided by the Freescale FSL bus.
- arm64 support for TLBI range operations and translation table level
hints (part of the ARMv8.4 architecture version).
- Time namespace support for arm64.
- Export the virtual and physical address sizes in vmcoreinfo for
makedumpfile and crash utilities.
- CPU feature handling cleanups and checks for programmer errors
(overlapping bit-fields).
- ACPI updates for arm64: disallow AML accesses to EFI code regions
and kernel memory.
- perf updates for arm64.
- Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups, most notably PLT counting
optimisation for module loading, recordmcount fix to ignore
relocations other than R_AARCH64_CALL26, CMA areas reserved for
gigantic pages on 16K and 64K configurations.
