Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "I'm sad to say that we've got an unusually large arm64 fixes pull for rc7 which addresses numerous significant instrumentation issues with our entry code. Without these patches, lockdep is hopelessly unreliable in some configurations [1,2] and syzkaller is therefore not a lot of use because it's so noisy. Although much of this has always been broken, it appears to have been exposed more readily by other changes such as 044d0d6d ("lockdep: Only trace IRQ edges") and general lockdep improvements around IRQ tracing and NMIs. Fixing this properly required moving much of the instrumentation hooks from our entry assembly into C, which Mark has been working on for the last few weeks. We're not quite ready to move to the recently added generic functions yet, but the code here has been deliberately written to mimic that closely so we can look at cleaning things up once we have a bit more breathing room. Having said all that, the second version of these patches was posted last week and I pushed it into our CI (kernelci and cki) along with a commit which forced on PROVE_LOCKING, NOHZ_FULL and CONTEXT_TRACKING_FORCE. The result? We found a real bug in the md/raid10 code [3]. Oh, and there's also a really silly typo patch that's unrelated. Summary: - Fix numerous issues with instrumentation and exception entry - Fix hideous typo in unused register field definition" [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/CACT4Y+aAzoJ48Mh1wNYD17pJqyEcDnrxGfApir=-j171TnQXhw@mail.gmail.com [2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201119193819.GA2601289@elver.google.com [3] https://lore.kernel.org/r/94c76d5e-466a-bc5f-e6c2-a11b65c39f83@redhat.com * tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64: mte: Fix typo in macro definition arm64: entry: fix EL1 debug transitions arm64: entry: fix NMI {user, kernel}->kernel transitions arm64: entry: fix non-NMI kernel<->kernel transitions arm64: ptrace: prepare for EL1 irq/rcu tracking arm64: entry: fix non-NMI user<->kernel transitions arm64: entry: move el1 irq/nmi logic to C arm64: entry: prepare ret_to_user for function call arm64: entry: move enter_from_user_mode to entry-common.c arm64: entry: mark entry code as noinstr arm64: mark idle code as noinstr arm64: syscall: exit userspace before unmasking exceptions
