Subject: [GIT PULL] arm64: fixes for -rc2

Hi Linus,

Here are three arm64 patches for -rc2. One of them fixes a nasty code
patching problem for big-endian systems, whilst the other two address
some issues remaining after the merge window. Specifically, cleaning up
after the KVM PMU work and sweeping up some defconfig updates that were
missed, which includes squashing a Kconfig warning from duplicate
definitions of MMC_BLOCK_MINORS.

We're debugging a couple of other issues at the moment, but the wheels
don't appear to have fallen off yet.

Please pull.

Will
