Linus Torvalds 114143a595 arm64 updates for 6.12 
ACPI:
 * Enable PMCG erratum workaround for HiSilicon HIP10 and 11 platforms.
 * Ensure arm64-specific IORT header is covered by MAINTAINERS.
 
 CPU Errata:
 * Enable workaround for hardware access/dirty issue on Ampere-1A cores.
 
 Memory management:
 * Define PHYSMEM_END to fix a crash in the amdgpu driver.
 * Avoid tripping over invalid kernel mappings on the kexec() path.
 * Userspace support for the Permission Overlay Extension (POE) using
   protection keys.
 
 Perf and PMUs:
 * Add support for the "fixed instruction counter" extension in the CPU
   PMU architecture.
 * Extend and fix the event encodings for Apple's M1 CPU PMU.
 * Allow LSM hooks to decide on SPE permissions for physical profiling.
 * Add support for the CMN S3 and NI-700 PMUs.
 
 Confidential Computing:
 * Add support for booting an arm64 kernel as a protected guest under
   Android's "Protected KVM" (pKVM) hypervisor.
 
 Selftests:
 * Fix vector length issues in the SVE/SME sigreturn tests
 * Fix build warning in the ptrace tests.
 
 Timers:
 * Add support for PR_{G,S}ET_TSC so that 'rr' can deal with
   non-determinism arising from the architected counter.
 
 Miscellaneous:
 * Rework our IPI-based CPU stopping code to try NMIs if regular IPIs
   don't succeed.
 * Minor fixes and cleanups.

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

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "The highlights are support for Arm's "Permission Overlay Extension"
  using memory protection keys, support for running as a protected guest
  on Android as well as perf support for a bunch of new interconnect
  PMUs.

  Summary:

  ACPI:
   - Enable PMCG erratum workaround for HiSilicon HIP10 and 11
     platforms.
   - Ensure arm64-specific IORT header is covered by MAINTAINERS.

  CPU Errata:

     cores.

  Memory management:
   - Define PHYSMEM_END to fix a crash in the amdgpu driver.
   - Avoid tripping over invalid kernel mappings on the kexec() path.
