The Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies Falkor v1 CPU may allocate TLB entries
using an incorrect ASID when TTBRx_EL1 is being updated. When the erratum
is triggered, page table entries using the new translation table base
address (BADDR) will be allocated into the TLB using the old ASID. All
circumstances leading to the incorrect ASID being cached in the TLB arise
when software writes TTBRx_EL1[ASID] and TTBRx_EL1[BADDR], a memory
operation is in the process of performing a translation using the specific
TTBRx_EL1 being written, and the memory operation uses a translation table
descriptor designated as non-global. EL2 and EL3 code changing the EL1&0
ASID is not subject to this erratum because hardware is prohibited from
performing translations from an out-of-context translation regime.
Consider the following pseudo code.
write new BADDR and ASID values to TTBRx_EL1
Replacing the above sequence with the one below will ensure that no TLB
entries with an incorrect ASID are used by software.
write reserved value to TTBRx_EL1[ASID]
ISB
write new value to TTBRx_EL1[BADDR]
ISB
write new value to TTBRx_EL1[ASID]
ISB
When the above sequence is used, page table entries using the new BADDR
value may still be incorrectly allocated into the TLB using the reserved
ASID. Yet this will not reduce functionality, since TLB entries incorrectly
tagged with the reserved ASID will never be hit by a later instruction.

Now that we have a workaround for Hisilicon erratum 161010101, notes
this in the arm64 silicon-errata document.
The new config option is too long to fit in the existing kconfig column,
so this is widened to accomodate it. At the same time, an existing
whitespace error is corrected, and the existing pattern of a line space
between vendors is enforced for recent additions.

During a TLB invalidate sequence targeting the inner shareable domain,
Falkor may prematurely complete the DSB before all loads and stores using
the old translation are observed. Instruction fetches are not subject to
the conditions of this erratum. If the original code sequence includes
multiple TLB invalidate instructions followed by a single DSB, onle one of
the TLB instructions needs to be repeated to work around this erratum.
While the erratum only applies to cases in which the TLBI specifies the
inner-shareable domain (*IS form of TLBI) and the DSB is ISH form or
stronger (OSH, SYS), this changes applies the workaround overabundantly--
to local TLBI, DSB NSH sequences as well--for simplicity.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"It's a bit all over the place this time with no "killer feature" to
speak of. Support for mismatched cache line sizes should help people
seeing whacky JIT failures on some SoCs, and the big.LITTLE perf
updates have been a long time coming, but a lot of the changes here
are cleanups.
We stray outside arch/arm64 in a few areas: the arch/arm/ arch_timer
workaround is acked by Russell, the DT/OF bits are acked by Rob, the
arch_timer clocksource changes acked by Marc, CPU hotplug by tglx and
jump_label by Peter (all CC'd).
Summary:
- Support for execute-only page permissions
- Support for hibernate and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
- Support for heterogeneous systems with mismatches cache line sizes
- Errata workarounds (A53 843419 update and QorIQ A-008585 timer bug)
- arm64 PMU perf updates, including cpumasks for heterogeneous systems
- Set UTS_MACHINE for building rpm packages
- Yet another head.S tidy-up
- Some cleanups and refactoring, particularly in the NUMA code
- Lots of random, non-critical fixes across the board"

Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the
potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core
clock cycles every time the timer value changes". Accesses to TVAL
(both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter
read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected.
The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive
reads return the same value. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an
equivalent write to CVAL.
The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads
return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter
reads before and after the write return the same value.
The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in
the timer node in the device tree. This can be overridden with the
clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM
users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to
automatically communicate this information.
This erratum can be found on LS1043A and LS2080A.

We already have a workaround for Cortex-A57 erratum #852523,
but Cortex-A72 r0p0 to r0p2 do suffer from the same issue
(known as erratum #853709).
Let's document the fact that we already handle this.

The erratum fixes the hang of ITS SYNC command by avoiding inter node
io and collections/cpu mapping on thunderx dual-socket platform.
This fix is only applicable for Cavium's ThunderX dual-socket platform.

MMU-500 erratum #841119 is tickled by a particular set of circumstances
interacting with the next-page prefetcher. Since said prefetcher is
quite dumb and actually detrimental to performance in some cases (by
causing unwanted TLB evictions for non-sequential access patterns), we
lose very little by turning it off, and what we gain is a guarantee that
the erratum is never hit.
As a bonus, the same workaround will also prevent erratum #826419 once
v7 short descriptor support is implemented.

Due to erratum #27704, the CN88xx SMMUv2 implementation supports only
shared ASID and VMID numberspaces.
This patch ensures that ASID and VMIDs are unique across all SMMU
instances on affected Cavium systems.

On ThunderX T88 pass 1.x through 2.1 parts, broadcast TLBI
instructions may cause the icache to become corrupted if it contains
data for a non-current ASID.
This patch implements the workaround (which invalidates the local
icache when switching the mm) by using code patching.

the Linux kernel for an arbitrary kernel tree, so add a file to keep
