Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Ensure that the encryption mask at boot is properly propagated on
   5-level page tables, otherwise the PGD entry is incorrectly set to
   non-encrypted, which causes system crashes during boot.

 - Undo the deferred 5-level page table setup as it cannot work with
   memory encryption enabled.

 - Prevent inconsistent XFD state on CPU hotplug, where the MSR is reset
   to the default value but the cached variable is not, so subsequent
   comparisons might yield the wrong result and as a consequence the
   result prevents updating the MSR.

 - Register the local APIC address only once in the MPPARSE enumeration
   to prevent triggering the related WARN_ONs() in the APIC and topology
   code.

 - Handle the case where no APIC is found gracefully by registering a
   fake APIC in the topology code. That makes all related topology
   functions work correctly and does not affect the actual APIC driver
   code at all.

 - Don't evaluate logical IDs during early boot as the local APIC IDs
   are not yet enumerated and the invoked function returns an error
   code. Nothing requires the logical IDs before the final CPUID
   enumeration takes place, which happens after the enumeration.

 - Cure the fallout of the per CPU rework on UP which misplaced the
   copying of boot_cpu_data to per CPU data so that the final update to
   boot_cpu_data got lost which caused inconsistent state and boot
   crashes.

 - Use copy_from_kernel_nofault() in the kprobes setup as there is no
   guarantee that the address can be safely accessed.

 - Reorder struct members in struct saved_context to work around another
   kmemleak false positive

 - Remove the buggy code which tries to update the E820 kexec table for
   setup_data as that is never passed to the kexec kernel.

 - Update the resource control documentation to use the proper units.

 - Fix a Kconfig warning observed with tinyconfig

The memory bandwidth software controller uses 2^20 units rather than
10^6. See mbm_bw_count() which computes bandwidth using the "SZ_1M"
Linux define for 0x00100000.

Update the documentation to use MiB when describing this feature.
It's too late to fix the mount option "mba_MBps" as that is now an
established user interface.

Charlie Jenkins &lt;charlie@rivosinc.com&gt; says:

On riscv, mmap currently returns an address from the largest address
space that can fit entirely inside of the hint address. This makes it
such that the hint address is almost never returned. This patch raises
the mappable area up to and including the hint address. This allows mmap
to often return the hint address, which allows a performance improvement
over searching for a valid address as well as making the behavior more
similar to other architectures.

Note that a previous patch introduced stronger semantics compared to
other architectures for riscv mmap. On riscv, mmap will not use bits in
the upper bits of the virtual address depending on the hint address. On
other architectures, a random address is returned in the address space
requested. On all architectures the hint address will be returned if it
is available. This allows riscv applications to configure how many bits
in the virtual address should be left empty. This has the two benefits
of being able to request address spaces that are smaller than the
default and doesn't require the application to know the page table
layout of riscv.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "The major features are support for LPA2 (52-bit VA/PA with 4K and 16K
  pages), the dpISA extension and Rust enabled on arm64. The changes are
  mostly contained within the usual arch/arm64/, drivers/perf, the arm64
  Documentation and kselftests. The exception is the Rust support which
  touches some generic build files.

  Summary:

   - Reorganise the arm64 kernel VA space and add support for LPA2 (at
     stage 1, KVM stage 2 was merged earlier) - 52-bit VA/PA address
     range with 4KB and 16KB pages

   - Enable Rust on arm64

   - Support for the 2023 dpISA extensions (data processing ISA), host
     only

   - arm64 perf updates:

      - StarFive's StarLink (integrates one or more CPU cores with a
        shared L3 memory system) PMU support

      - Enable HiSilicon Erratum 162700402 quirk for HIP09

      - Several updates for the HiSilicon PCIe PMU driver

      - Arm CoreSight PMU support

      - Convert all drivers under drivers/perf/ to use .remove_new()

   - Miscellaneous:

      - Don't enable workarounds for "rare" errata by default

      - Clean up the DAIF flags handling for EL0 returns (in preparation
        for NMI support)

      - Kselftest update for ptrace()

      - Update some of the sysreg field definitions

      - Slight improvement in the code generation for inline asm I/O
        accessors to permit offset addressing

      - kretprobes: acquire regs via a BRK exception (previously done
        via a trampoline handler)

      - SVE/SME cleanups, comment updates

      - Allow CALL_OPS+CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE with clang (previously
        disabled due to gcc silently ignoring -falign-functions=N)"

the hint address, if provided.

<title>Merge branch 'linus' into x86/boot, to resolve conflict</title>

There's a new conflict with Linus's upstream tree, because
in the following merge conflict resolution in &lt;asm/coco.h&gt;:

  38b334fc767e Merge tag 'x86_sev_for_v6.9_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Linus has resolved the conflicting placement of 'cc_mask' better
than the original commit:

  1c811d403afd x86/sev: Fix position dependent variable references in startup code

... which was also done by an internal merge resolution:

  2e5fc4786b7a Merge branch 'x86/sev' into x86/boot, to resolve conflicts and to pick up dependent tree

But Linus is right in 38b334fc767e, the 'cc_mask' declaration is sufficient
within the #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CC_PLATFORM block.

So instead of forcing Linus to do the same resolution again, merge in Linus's
tree and follow his conflict resolution.

 Conflicts:
	arch/x86/include/asm/coco.h
