commit f827bcdafa2a2ac21c91e47f587e8d0c76195409 upstream.

Implement the workaround for ARM Cortex-A510 erratum 3117295. On an
affected Cortex-A510 core, a speculatively executed unprivileged load
might leak data from a privileged load via a cache side channel. The
issue only exists for loads within a translation regime with the same
translation (e.g. same ASID and VMID). Therefore, the issue only affects
the return to EL0.

The erratum and workaround are the same as ARM Cortex-A520 erratum
2966298, so reuse the existing workaround.

<title>docs: kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection</title>

commit c48a7c44a1d02516309015b6134c9bb982e17008 upstream.

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.

Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).

This also makes the code shorter.

This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

<title>x86/Documentation: Indent 'note::' directive for protocol version number note</title>

<content type='text'>
The protocol version number note is between the protocol version table and
the memory layout section. As such, Sphinx renders the note directive not
only on the actual note, but until the end of doc.

Indent the directive so that only the actual protocol version number
note is rendered as such.

The protocol version number note is between the protocol version table and
the memory layout section. As such, Sphinx renders the note directive not
only on the actual note, but until the end of doc.

Indent the directive so that only the actual protocol version number
note is rendered as such.

Fixes: 2c33c27fd603 ("x86/boot: Introduce kernel_info")

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add support for KVM running as a nested hypervisor under development
   versions of PowerVM, using the new PAPR nested virtualisation API

 - Add support for the BPF prog pack allocator

 - A rework of the non-server MMU handling to support execute-only on
   all platforms

 - Some optimisations &amp; cleanups for the powerpc qspinlock code

 - Various other small features and fixes
