Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] arm64: insn: Report PAC and BTI instructions as NOPs
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2020 18:24:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200428172433.48830-4-broonie@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200428172433.48830-1-broonie@kernel.org>

In order to allow probing of PAC and BTI instructions without more
specialized support recognize them as NOPs.
