Hi Linus,

Please pull these arm64 fixes for -rc3. Nothing too bad, but the spectre
updates to smatch identified a few places that may need sanitising so we've
got those covered. As per usual, details are in the tag.

It's worth noting that we had some DMARC hiccups this week which should be
resolved now, so hopefully this won't go into your spam folder.

Thanks,

Will

  arm64: avoid instrumenting atomic_ll_sc.o (2018-04-27 12:14:44 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
arm64 fixes:

- Close some potential spectre-v1 vulnerabilities found by smatch

- Add missing list sentinel for CPUs that don't require KPTI

- Removal of unused 'addr' parameter for I/D cache coherency

- Removal of redundant set_fs(KERNEL_DS) calls in ptrace

- Fix single-stepping state machine handling in response to kernel traps

- Clang support for 128-bit integers

- Avoid instrumenting our out-of-line atomics in preparation for enabling
  LSE atomics by default in 4.18
