Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "The big highlight is support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)
  which required extensive ABI work to ensure we don't break existing
  applications by blowing away their signal stack with the rather large
  new vector context (<= 2 kbit per vector register). There's further
  work to be done optimising things like exception return, but the ABI
  is solid now.

  Much of the line count comes from some new PMU drivers we have, but
  they're pretty self-contained and I suspect we'll have more of them in
  future.

  Plenty of acronym soup here:

   - initial support for the Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)

   - improved handling for SError interrupts (required to handle RAS
     events)

   - enable GCC support for 128-bit integer types

   - remove kernel text addresses from backtraces and register dumps

   - use of WFE to implement long delay()s

   - ACPI IORT updates from Lorenzo Pieralisi

   - perf PMU driver for the Statistical Profiling Extension (SPE)

   - perf PMU driver for Hisilicon's system PMUs

   - misc cleanups and non-critical fixes"

The Scalable Vector Extension (SVE) is an extension to the AArch64
execution state which complements and extends the SIMD functionality
of the base architecture to support much larger vectors and to enable
additional vectorisation opportunities.
To enable use of this extension on CPUs that implement it, say Y.
