Whilst I can see that making some sense for the selftests (particularly
if the ABI is liable to further changes before 4.18 is released), I'd
prefer to take the arm64 bits via the arm64 tree, as they will conflict
with some ongoing work to rewrite the syscall entry path in C which I
plan to queue in the next week (pending final testing results).

Personally, I don't see the rush, but I won't stop anybody who wants to
try steam-rollering them into mainline ;)
