Thanks and apologies if merging through different trees generates some
confusion.

I updated arm patches to address Russell's comments. I did the same for
arm64. I'll reply with the updated version, so you can see if it looks
good to you as well. In case it is OK, I already updated the for-arm64
branch with the new version:
 
 git://linux-arm.org/linux-jl.git upstream/default_caps_for-arm64 

Best,
