Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's quite a lot of code here, but much of it is due to the
addition of a new PMU driver as well as some arm64-specific selftests
which is an area where we've traditionally been lagging a bit.
In terms of exciting features, this includes support for the Memory
Tagging Extension which narrowly missed 5.9, hopefully allowing
userspace to run with use-after-free detection in production on CPUs
that support it. Work is ongoing to integrate the feature with KASAN
for 5.11.
Another change that I'm excited about (assuming they get the hardware
right) is preparing the ASID allocator for sharing the CPU page-table
with the SMMU. Those changes will also come in via Joerg with the
IOMMU pull.
We do stray outside of our usual directories in a few places, mostly
due to core changes required by MTE. Although much of this has been
Acked, there were a couple of places where we unfortunately didn't get
any review feedback.
Other than that, we ran into a handful of minor conflicts in -next,
but nothing that should post any issues.
Summary:
- Userspace support for the Memory Tagging Extension introduced by
Armv8.5. Kernel support (via KASAN) is likely to follow in 5.11.
- Selftests for MTE, Pointer Authentication and FPSIMD/SVE context
switching.
- Fix and subsequent rewrite of our Spectre mitigations, including
the addition of support for PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC.
- Support for the Armv8.3 Pointer Authentication enhancements.
- Support for ASID pinning, which is required when sharing
page-tables with the SMMU.
- MM updates, including treating flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() as a
no-op.
- Perf/PMU driver updates, including addition of the ARM CMN PMU
driver and also support to handle CPU PMU IRQs as NMIs.
- Allow prefetchable PCI BARs to be exposed to userspace using normal
non-cacheable mappings.
- Implementation of ARCH_STACKWALK for unwinding.
- Improve reporting of unexpected kernel traps due to BPF JIT
failure.
- Improve robustness of user-visible HWCAP strings and their
corresponding numerical constants.
- Removal of TEXT_OFFSET.
- Removal of some unused functions, parameters and prototypes.
- Removal of MPIDR-based topology detection in favour of firmware
description.
- Cleanups to handling of SVE and FPSIMD register state in
preparation for potential future optimisation of handling across
syscalls.
- Cleanups to the SDEI driver in preparation for support in KVM.
- Miscellaneous cleanups and refactoring work"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Pull v5.10 RCU changes from Paul E. McKenney:
- Debugging for smp_call_function().
- Strict grace periods for KASAN. The point of this series is to find
RCU-usage bugs, so the corresponding new RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD
Kconfig option depends on both DEBUG_KERNEL and RCU_EXPERT, and is
further disabled by dfefault. Finally, the help text includes

There are several :c:type: definitions there, in order to
do cross-references with the driver's documentation.
Those are broken when docs are built with Sphinx 3.x, as
it would require :c:struct: instead.
For Sphinx < 3.x, the automarkup.py extension is able to do the
replacement already, and a future improvement on it should make
it also work with Sphinx 3.x.
So, get rid of the usage of the :c:type: macro there.

Initial driver for PMU event counting on the Arm CMN-600 interconnect.
CMN sports an obnoxiously complex distributed PMU system as part of
its debug and trace features, which can do all manner of things like
sampling, cross-triggering and generating CoreSight trace. This driver
covers the PMU functionality, plus the relevant aspects of watchpoints
for simply counting matching flits.

Dictionaries are only used for SUBSYSTEM and DEVICE properties. The
current implementation stores the property names each time they are
used. This requires more space than otherwise necessary. Also,
because the dictionary entries are currently considered optional,
it cannot be relied upon that they are always available, even if the
writer wanted to store them. These issues will increase should new
dictionary properties be introduced.
Rather than storing the subsystem and device properties in the
dict ring, introduce a struct dev_printk_info with separate fields
to store only the property values. Embed this struct within the
struct printk_info to provide guaranteed availability.

The V4 filesystem format contains known weaknesses in the on-disk format
that make metadata verification diffiult. In addition, the format does
not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We
should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack
surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5.
Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first
period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw
support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone
who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will
be removed from the kernel. Dates for these events have been added to
the upstream kernel.

Add support for extending the newest data block. For this, introduce
a new finalization state (desc_finalized) denoting a committed
descriptor that cannot be extended.
Until a record is finalized, a writer can reopen that record to
append new data. Reopening a record means transitioning from the
desc_committed state back to the desc_reserved state.
A writer can explicitly finalize a record if there is no intention
of extending it. Also, records are automatically finalized when a
new record is reserved. This relieves writers of needing to
explicitly finalize while also making such records available to
readers sooner. (Readers can only traverse finalized records.)
Four new memory barrier pairs are introduced. Two of them are
insignificant additions (data_realloc:A/desc_read:D and
data_realloc:A/data_push_tail:B) because they are alternate path
memory barriers that exactly match the purpose, pairing, and
context of the two existing memory barrier pairs they provide an
alternate path for. The other two new memory barrier pairs are
significant additions:
desc_reopen_last:A / _prb_commit:B - When reopening a descriptor,
ensure the state transitions back to desc_reserved before
fully trusting the descriptor data.
_prb_commit:B / desc_reserve:D - When committing a descriptor,
ensure the state transitions to desc_committed before checking
the head ID to see if the descriptor needs to be finalized.

Rather than deriving the state by evaluating bits within the flags
area of the state variable, assign the states explicit values and
set those values in the flags area. Introduce macros to make it
simple to read and write state values for the state variable.
Although the functionality is preserved, the binary representation
for the states is changed.

This reverts commit 14775b04964264189caa4a0862eac05dab8c0502 as there
were still some parsing problems with it, and the follow-on patch for
it.
Let's revisit it later, just drop it for now.

Commit
0c2a3913d6f5 ("x86/fpu: Parse clearcpuid= as early XSAVE argument")
changed clearcpuid parsing from __setup() to cmdline_find_option().
While the __setup() function would have been called for each clearcpuid=
parameter on the command line, cmdline_find_option() will only return
the last one, so the change effectively made it impossible to disable
more than one bit.
Allow a comma-separated list of bit numbers as the argument for
clearcpuid to allow multiple bits to be disabled again. Log the bits
being disabled for informational purposes.
Also fix the check on the return value of cmdline_find_option(). It
returns -1 when the option is not found, so testing as a boolean is
incorrect.
