Hi Greg,

Please pull these two arm64 fixes for 4.19. One of them fixes a nasty
WARN() that has started triggering because we assumed that memory
reservations from firmware would always correspond to regions of the
physical address space that we have mapped as memory. Unfortunately,
some existing device-tree files break this assumption and we need to
continue supporting them. The other fix addresses an issue where a
CHAIN PMU event can be requested as a 32-bit counter via perf, which
makes no sense in isolation since these events are intended to be used
in conjunction with another event when creating a 64-bit counter.

This is summarised in the tag.

Cheers,

Will
