Subject: [GIT PULL] More arm64 updates for -rc1

Hi Linus,

Please pull this small selection of arm64 fixes and updates for -rc1. Most
of these are fixes that came in during the merge window, with the exception
of the HAVE_MOVE_PMD mremap() speed-up which we discussed back in 2018 and
somehow forgot to enable upstream [1]. Anyway, usual summary in the tag.

Marc Zyngier managed to get his paws on a Falkor system and offered a
Tested-by on the Spectre-v2 mitigation patch, but it came in after I'd
applied the thing.

Please pull.

Thanks,

Will

  arm64: proton-pack: Update comment to reflect new function name (2020-10-21 11:07:27 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
More arm64 updates for 5.10

- Improve performance of Spectre-v2 mitigation on Falkor CPUs (if you're lucky
  enough to have one)

- Select HAVE_MOVE_PMD. This has been shown to improve mremap() performance,
  which is used heavily by the Android runtime GC, and it seems we forgot to
  enable this upstream back in 2018.

- Ensure linker flags are consistent between LLVM and BFD

- Fix stale comment in Spectre mitigation rework

- Fix broken copyright header

- Fix KASLR randomisation of the linear map

- Prevent arm64-specific prctl()s from compat tasks (return -EINVAL)
