Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "It feels like the new world of AI tooling has slowed us down a little
  on the feature side when compared to the fixes side. The extra rounds
  of Sashiko review have also pushed a few things out until next time.

  Still, there's some good foundational stuff here for the fpsimd code
  and hardening work towards removing the predictable linear alias of
  the kernel image.

  CPU errata handling:
   - Extend CnP disabling workaround to HiSilicon HIP09 hardware.
   - Work around eternally broken broadcast TLB invalidation on more
     CPUs.
   - Documentation and code cleanups.

  CPU features:
   - Add new hwcaps for the 2025 dpISA extensions.

  Floating point / SVE / SME:
   - Significant cleanup to the low-level state management code in the
     core architecture code and KVM.
   - Use correct register widths during SVE/SME save/restore assembly.
   - Expose SVE/SME save/restore memory accesses to sanitisers.

  Memory management:
   - Preparatory work for unmapping the kernel data and bss sections
     from the linear map.

  Miscellaneous:
   - Inline DAIF manipulation helpers so they can be used safely from
     non-instrumentable code.
   - Fix handling of the 'nosmp' cmdline option to avoid marking
     secondary cores as "possible".

  MPAM:
   - Add support for v0.1 of the MPAM architecture.

  Perf:
   - Update HiSilicon PMU MAINTAINERS entry.
   - Fix event encodings for the DVM node in the CMN driver.

  Selftests:
   - Extend sigframe tests to cover POE context.
   - Add coverage for the newly added 2025 dpISA hwcaps.

  System registers:
   - Add new registers and ESR encodings for the HDBSS feature.

  Plus minor fixes and cleanups across the board"

In addition to updating the CPU MPAM version check, the MPAM MSC version
check also need to be updated. mpam_msc_check_aidr() is added to check
the MSC AIDR register, ensuring that both the major and minor version
numbers fall within the supported range of the MPAM architecture version.

<title>arm_mpam: Check whether the config array is allocated before destroying it</title>

__destroy_component_cfg() is called to free the configuration array.
It uses the embedded 'garbage' structure, which means the array has
to be allocated.

If __destroy_component_cfg() is called from mpam_disable() before the
configuration was ever allocated, then a NULL pointer is dereferenced.

Check for this case and return early if the configuration is not
allocated.

__destroy_component_cfg() also frees the mbwu_state as this is allocated
by __allocate_component_cfg(). As the mbwu_state is allocated after
comp-&gt;cfg is set, and is also under mpam_list_lock, only the first
pointer needs checking.

mpam_assert_partid_sizes_fixed() is used to document that the caller
doesn't expect the discovered PARTID size to change while it is walking
a list sized by PARTID. Typically the MSC state is not written to until
all the MSC have been discovered and this value is set.

However, if discovering the MSC fails and schedules mpam_disable(),
then the MSC state is written to reset it. In this case the
discovered PARTID size may be become smaller - but only PARTID 0
will be used once resctrl_exit() has been called.

Skip the WARN_ON_ONCE() if mpam_disable_reason has been set.

<title>arm_mpam: Improve check for whether or not NRDY is hardware managed</title>

mpam_ris_hw_probe_csu_nrdy() sets and clears MSMON_CSU.NRDY and checks
whether it's configuration sticks. However, hardware isn't given a chance
to disagree. Based on rule LRTGP, in MPAM specification IHI0099 version
B.b, the hardware will set NRDY if it needs time to establish a count after
a configuration change.

Enable the monitor so that NRDY becomes relevant and change the
configuration after clearing NRDY to try and coax the hardware into setting
it.

<title>arm_mpam: Pretend that NRDY is always hardware managed</title>

<content type='text'>
Rule ZTXDS of the MPAM specification, IHI009 version B.b, states: "If a
monitor does not support automatic updates of NRDY, software can use that
bit for any purpose."

As software is not reliably informed whether or not the monitor supports
automatic updates of NRDY always assume that hardware may manage NRDY but
don't rely on it. When NRDY is truly untouched by hardware then, as it is
written to 0 on configuration, it will always read 0.

At probe it's checked if MSMON_CSU.NRDY and MSMON_MBWU.NRDY are hardware
managed but not MSMON_MBWU_L.NDRY. Specialize the checking for hardware
managed NRDY to CSU counters as this is the only case where hardware
management makes sense. Continue to inform the user if MSMON_CSU.NRDY
appears to be hardware managed but the firmware doesn't provide the
associated time limit for the automatic clearing of NRDY. Remove the NRDY
feature flags as they are now unused.

In _mpam_ris_hw_probe_hw_nrdy() a new register value to select the first
monitor and relevant RIS is prepared in mon_sel. However, it is written to
the monitor value register, e.g. MSMON_CSU, rather than MSMON_CFG_MON_SEL.

As MSMON_CFG_MON_SEL is a 32 bit register update the type of mon_sel to
u32.  Write mon_sel to the intended register, MSMON_CFG_MON_SEL.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "The biggest changes are MPAM enablement in drivers/resctrl and new PMU
  support under drivers/perf.

  On the core side, FEAT_LSUI lets futex atomic operations with EL0
  permissions, avoiding PAN toggling.

  The rest is mostly TLB invalidation refactoring, further generic entry
  work, sysreg updates and a few fixes.

  Core features:

   - Add support for FEAT_LSUI, allowing futex atomic operations without
     toggling Privileged Access Never (PAN)

   - Further refactor the arm64 exception handling code towards the
     generic entry infrastructure

   - Optimise __READ_ONCE() with CONFIG_LTO=y and allow alias analysis
     through it

  Memory management:

   - Refactor the arm64 TLB invalidation API and implementation for
     better control over barrier placement and level-hinted invalidation

   - Enable batched TLB flushes during memory hot-unplug

   - Fix rodata=full block mapping support for realm guests (when
     BBML2_NOABORT is available)

  Perf and PMU:

   - Add support for a whole bunch of system PMUs featured in NVIDIA's
     Tegra410 SoC (cspmu extensions for the fabric and PCIe, new drivers
     for CPU/C2C memory latency PMUs)

   - Clean up iomem resource handling in the Arm CMN driver

   - Fix signedness handling of AA64DFR0.{PMUVer,PerfMon}

  MPAM (Memory Partitioning And Monitoring):

   - Add architecture context-switch and hiding of the feature from KVM

   - Add interface to allow MPAM to be exposed to user-space using
     resctrl

   - Add errata workaround for some existing platforms

   - Add documentation for using MPAM and what shape of platforms can
     use resctrl

  Miscellaneous:

   - Check DAIF (and PMR, where relevant) at task-switch time

   - Skip TFSR_EL1 checks and barriers in synchronous MTE tag check mode
     (only relevant to asynchronous or asymmetric tag check modes)

   - Remove a duplicate allocation in the kexec code

   - Remove redundant save/restore of SCS SP on entry to/from EL0

   - Generate the KERNEL_HWCAP_ definitions from the arm64 hwcap
     descriptions

   - Add kselftest coverage for cmpbr_sigill()

   - Update sysreg definitions"

<title>arm_mpam: Quirk CMN-650's CSU NRDY behaviour</title>

<content type='text'>
CMN-650 is afflicted with an erratum where the CSU NRDY bit never clears.
This tells us the monitor never finishes scanning the cache. The erratum
document says to wait the maximum time, then ignore the field.

Add a flag to indicate whether this is the final attempt to read the
counter, and when this quirk is applied, ignore the NRDY field.

This means accesses to this counter will always retry, even if the counter
was previously programmed to the same values.

The counter value is not expected to be stable, it drifts up and down with
each allocation and eviction. The CSU register provides the value for a
point in time.

The registers MSMON_MBWU_L and MSMON_MBWU return the number of requests
rather than the number of bytes transferred.

Bandwidth resource monitoring is performed at the last level cache, where
each request arrive in 64Byte granularity. The current implementation
returns the number of transactions received at the last level cache but
does not provide the value in bytes. Scaling by 64 gives an accurate byte
count to match the MPAM specification for the MSMON_MBWU and MSMON_MBWU_L
registers. This patch fixes the issue by reporting the actual number of
bytes instead of the number of transactions from __ris_msmon_read().
