I rebased the remaining patches onto for-next/core, and pushed it here:
https://git.linaro.org/people/ard.biesheuvel/linux-arm.git/shortlog/refs/heads/arm64-kaslr-v6

I need to check if everything still works, and if it does, I will send
them out as v6sub2
Note that I have included the arm64 extable patch plus its generic
dependency, and the kallsyms patches as well. We can decide later how
to proceed with those, but for now, I included them for completeness.
