Linus Torvalds 2d09a9449e arm64 updates for 6.15:
Perf and PMUs:
 
  - Support for the "Rainier" CPU PMU from Arm
 
  - Preparatory driver changes and cleanups that pave the way for BRBE
    support
 
  - Support for partial virtualisation of the Apple-M1 PMU
 
  - Support for the second event filter in Arm CSPMU designs
 
  - Minor fixes and cleanups (CMN and DWC PMUs)
 
  - Enable EL2 requirements for FEAT_PMUv3p9
 
 Power, CPU topology:
 
  - Support for AMUv1-based average CPU frequency
 
  - Run-time SMT control wired up for arm64 (CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT). It adds
    a generic topology_is_primary_thread() function overridden by x86 and
    powerpc
 
 New(ish) features:
 
  - MOPS (memcpy/memset) support for the uaccess routines
 
 Security/confidential compute:
 
  - Fix the DMA address for devices used in Realms with Arm CCA. The
    CCA architecture uses the address bit to differentiate between shared
    and private addresses
 
  - Spectre-BHB: assume CPUs Linux doesn't know about vulnerable by
    default
 
 Memory management clean-ups:
 
  - Drop the P*D_TABLE_BIT definition in preparation for 128-bit PTEs
 
  - Some minor page table accessor clean-ups
 
  - PIE/POE (permission indirection/overlay) helpers clean-up
 
 Kselftests:
 
  - MTE: skip hugetlb tests if MTE is not supported on such mappings and
    user correct naming for sync/async tag checking modes
 
 Miscellaneous:
 
  - Add a PKEY_UNRESTRICTED definition as 0 to uapi (toolchain people
    request)
 
  - Sysreg updates for new register fields
 
  - CPU type info for some Qualcomm Kryo cores

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

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Nothing major this time around.

  Apart from the usual perf/PMU updates, some page table cleanups, the
  notable features are average CPU frequency based on the AMUv1
  counters, CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMT and MOPS instructions (memcpy/memset) in
  the uaccess routines.

  Perf and PMUs:

   - Support for the 'Rainier' CPU PMU from Arm

   - Preparatory driver changes and cleanups that pave the way for BRBE
     support

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
