Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Here's the usual mixed bag of arm64 updates, also including some
  related EFI changes (Acked by Matt) and the MMU gather range cleanup
  (Acked by you).

  Changes include:
   - support for alternative instruction patching from Andre
   - seccomp from Akashi
   - some AArch32 instruction emulation, required by the Android folks
   - optimisations for exception entry/exit code, cmpxchg, pcpu atomics
   - mmu_gather range calculations moved into core code
   - EFI updates from Ard, including long-awaited SMBIOS support
   - /proc/cpuinfo fixes to align with the format used by arch/arm/
   - a few non-critical fixes across the architecture"

The arm64 port of the Linux kernel provides infrastructure to support
emulation of instructions which have been deprecated, or obsoleted in
the architecture. The infrastructure code uses undefined instruction
hooks to support emulation. Where available it also allows turning on
the instruction execution in hardware.

The emulation mode can be controlled by writing to sysctl nodes
(/proc/sys/abi). The following explains the different execution
behaviours and the corresponding values of the sysctl nodes -

* Undef
  Value: 0
  Generates undefined instruction abort. Default for instructions that
  have been obsoleted in the architecture, e.g., SWP

* Emulate
  Value: 1
  Uses software emulation. To aid migration of software, in this mode
  usage of emulated instruction is traced as well as rate limited
  warnings are issued. This is the default for deprecated
  instructions, .e.g., CP15 barriers

* Hardware Execution
  Value: 2
  Although marked as deprecated, some implementations may support the
  enabling/disabling of hardware support for the execution of these
  instructions. Using hardware execution generally provides better
  performance, but at the loss of ability to gather runtime statistics
  about the use of the deprecated instructions.

The default mode depends on the status of the instruction in the
architecture. Deprecated instructions should default to emulation
while obsolete instructions must be undefined by default.

Supported legacy instructions
-----------------------------
* SWP{B}
Node: /proc/sys/abi/swp
Status: Obsolete
Default: Undef (0)

* CP15 Barriers
Node: /proc/sys/abi/cp15_barrier
Status: Deprecated
Default: Emulate (1)

	  If a Cortex-A53 uses an AMBA AXI4 ACE interface to other processors

	  Under certain conditions this erratum can cause a clean line eviction

	  If a Cortex-A53 processor is executing a store or prefetch for

	  ARMv8 obsoletes the use of A32 SWP/SWPB instructions such that

	  In some older versions of glibc [<=2.8] SWP is used during futex
	  trylock() operations with the assumption that the code will not
	  be preempted. This invalid assumption may be more likely to fail
	  with SWP emulation enabled, leading to deadlock of the user
	  application.

	  NOTE: when accessing uncached shared regions, LDXR/STXR rely
	  on an external transaction monitoring block called a global
