Pull arm64 fixes from Catalin Marinas:
"The bulk of this is the pte accessors annotation to READ/WRITE_ONCE
(we tried to avoid pushing this during the merge window to avoid
conflicts)
- Updated the page table accessors to use READ/WRITE_ONCE and prevent
compiler transformation that could lead to an apparent loss of
coherency
- Enabled branch predictor hardening for the Falkor CPU
- Fix interaction between kpti enabling and KASan causing the
recursive page table walking to take a significant time
- Fix some sparse warnings"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
