      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"
