Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 00/10] Add support for the ARMv8.2 Statistical Profiling Extension

Hello,

This is RFCv2 of the patches originally posted here:

  http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-January/476450.html

Changes since RFCv1 include:

  * Use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL instead of EXPORT_SYMBOL
  * Remove unused CPP macro
  * Added tags for the first couple of patches (which are now queued in arm64)
  * Added a brief overview of SPE to the commit log for the perf driver

All feedback welcome,

Will

  arm64: cpufeature: allow for version discrepancy in PMU
    implementations
  arm64: cpufeature: Don't enforce system-wide SPE capability
  arm64: KVM: Save/restore the host SPE state when entering/leaving a VM
  arm64: head.S: Enable EL1 (host) access to SPE when entered at EL2
  genirq: export irq_get_percpu_devid_partition to modules
  perf/core: Export AUX buffer helpers to modules
  perf: Directly pass PERF_AUX_* flags to perf_aux_output_end
  perf/core: Add PERF_AUX_FLAG_COLLISION to report colliding samples
  drivers/perf: Add support for ARMv8.2 Statistical Profiling Extension
  dt-bindings: Document devicetree binding for ARM SPE
