Hi Linus,

Please pull these arm64 fixes for -rc7. They're all very simple and
self-contained, although the CFI jump-table fix touches the generic
linker script as that's where the problematic macro lives.

Summary in the tag.

Cheers,

Will

  vmlinux.lds.h: CFI: Reduce alignment of jump-table to function alignment (2022-09-23 13:39:01 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
arm64 fixes for -rc7

- Fix false positive "sleeping while atomic" warning resulting from
  the kPTI rework taking a mutex too early.

- Fix possible overflow in AMU frequency calculation

- Fix incorrect shift in CMN PMU driver which causes problems with
  newer versions of the IP

- Reduce alignment of the CFI jump table to avoid huge kernel images
  and link errors with !4KiB page size configurations

The commit message is a bit confusing. It talks about "hysterical
raisins on x86", but CONFIG_CFI_CLANG has always been arm64-only. No?

So I'm not seeing what the x86 comment is about?

Anyway, pulled. That alignment was obviously horrendous.

It was a an accidental inclusion inthe ARM64 CFI series while x86 CFI support
was being developed; in the thread in the LINK tage, Sami says:

| This was a leftover from an old x86 series, which was included here by
| mistake. Will also asked me about this a couple of weeks ago, I think, and
| said he'd send a patch to remove it.

The relevant message being:

Thanks,
Mark.
