include/linux/sched.h implements TASK_SIZE_OF as TASK_SIZE if it
is not set by the architecture headers.  TASK_SIZE uses the
current task to determine the size of the virtual address space.
On a 64-bit kernel this will cause reading /proc/pid/pagemap of a
64-bit process from a 32-bit process to return EOF when it reads
past 0xffffffff.

Implement TASK_SIZE_OF exactly the same as TASK_SIZE with
test_tsk_thread_flag instead of test_thread_flag.

<title>arm64: fix el2_setup check of CurrentEL</title>

The CurrentEL system register reports the Current Exception Level
of the CPU. It doesn't say anything about the stack handling, and
yet we compare it to PSR_MODE_EL2t and PSR_MODE_EL2h.

It works by chance because PSR_MODE_EL2t happens to match the right
bits, but that's otherwise a very bad idea. Just check for the EL
value instead.

This should be a plain old '&amp;' and could easily lead to undefined
behaviour if the target of a pmd_mknotpresent invocation was the same
as the parameter.

Arm64 does not define dma_get_required_mask() function.
Therefore, it should not define the ARCH_HAS_DMA_GET_REQUIRED_MASK.
This causes build errors in some device drivers (e.g. mpt2sas)

<content type='text'>
Whilst native arm64 applications don't have the 16-bit UID/GID syscalls
wired up, compat tasks can still access them. The 16-bit wrappers for
these syscalls use __kernel_old_uid_t and __kernel_old_gid_t, which must
be 16-bit data types to maintain compatibility with the 16-bit UIDs used
by compat applications.

This patch defines 16-bit __kernel_old_{gid,uid}_t types for arm64
instead of using the 32-bit types provided by asm-generic.

 - Optimised assembly string/memory routines (based on the AArch64
   Cortex Strings library contributed to glibc but re-licensed under
   GPLv2)
 - Optimised crypto algorithms making use of the ARMv8 crypto extensions
   (together with kernel API for using FPSIMD instructions in interrupt
   context)
 - Ftrace support
 - CPU topology parsing from DT
 - ESR_EL1 (Exception Syndrome Register) exposed to user space signal
   handlers for SIGSEGV/SIGBUS (useful to emulation tools like Qemu)
 - 1GB section linear mapping if applicable
 - Barriers usage clean-up
 - Default pgprot clean-up
