[PATCH v2 00/18] arm64: Unmap the kernel whilst running in userspace (KAISER)

[Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>]

Hi again,

This is version two of the patches previously posted here:

  http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-November/542751.html

Changes since v1 include:

  * Based on v4.15-rc1
  * Trampoline moved into FIXMAP area
  * Explicit static key replaced by cpu cap
  * Disable SPE for userspace profiling if kernel unmapped at EL0
  * Changed polarity of cpu feature to match config option
  * Changed command-line option so we can force on in future if necessary
  * Changed Falkor workaround to invalidate different page within 2MB region
  * Reworked alternative sequences in entry.S, since the NOP slides with
    kaiser=off were measurable

I experimented with leaving the vbar set to point at the kaiser vectors,
but I couldn't measure any performance improvement from that and it made
the code slightly more complicated, so I've left it as-is.

Patches based on 4.15-rc1 and also pushed here:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git kaiser

Feedback welcome, particularly on a better name for the command-line option.
