<content type='text'>
In preparation for arm64 supporting ftrace built on other compiler
options, let's have Makefiles remove the $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) flags,
whatever these maybe, rather than assuming '-pg'.

While at it, fix arm32 as well. There should be no functional change as
a result of this patch.

Commit f922c4abdf764 ("module: allow symbol exports to be disabled")
introduced a way to inhibit generation of kcrctab/ksymtab sections
when building ordinary kernel code to be used in a different execution
context (decompressor, EFI stub, etc)

That means we no longer have to strip those sections explicitly when
building the EFI libstub objects, so drop this from the Makefile.

<title>efi: Unify DMI setup code over the arm/arm64, ia64 and x86 architectures</title>

All architectures (arm/arm64, ia64 and x86) do the same here, so unify
the code.

Note: We do not need to call dump_stack_set_arch_desc() in case of
!dmi_available. Both strings, dmi_ids_string and dump_stack_arch_
desc_str are initialized zero and thus nothing would change.

Run dmi_memdev_walk() for arch arm* as other architectures do.
This improves error logging as the memory device handle is
translated now to the DIMM entry's name provided by the DMI handle.

Before:

 {1}[Hardware Error]:   DIMM location: not present. DMI handle: 0x0038

After:

 {1}[Hardware Error]:   DIMM location: N0 DIMM_A0

It took me a while to understand what is going on in the nested
if-blocks.

Simplify it by removing unneeded code.

  - if_changed automatically adds 'set -e', so any failure in the
    series of commands makes it immediately fail as a whole.
    So, the outer if block is entirely redundant.

  - Since commit 9c2af1c7377a ("kbuild: add .DELETE_ON_ERROR special target"),
    GNU Make automatically deletes the target on any failure
    in its recipe. The explicit 'rm -f $@' is redundant.

  - Surrounding commands with ( ) will spawn a subshell to execute them
    in it, but it is rarely useful to do so.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Pseudo NMI support for arm64 using GICv3 interrupt priorities

 - uaccess macros clean-up (unsafe user accessors also merged but
   reverted, waiting for objtool support on arm64)

 - ptrace regsets for Pointer Authentication (ARMv8.3) key management

 - inX() ordering w.r.t. delay() on arm64 and riscv (acks in place by
   the riscv maintainers)

 - arm64/perf updates: PMU bindings converted to json-schema, unused
   variable and misleading comment removed

 - arm64/debug fixes to ensure checking of the triggering exception
   level and to avoid the propagation of the UNKNOWN FAR value into the
   si_code for debug signals

 - Workaround for Fujitsu A64FX erratum 010001

 - lib/raid6 ARM NEON optimisations

 - NR_CPUS now defaults to 256 on arm64

 - Minor clean-ups (documentation/comments, Kconfig warning, unused
   asm-offsets, clang warnings)

 - MAINTAINERS update for list information to the ARM64 ACPI entry

   reverted, waiting for objtool support on arm64)

 - ptrace regsets for Pointer Authentication (ARMv8.3) key management

 - inX() ordering w.r.t. delay() on arm64 and riscv (acks in place by
   the riscv maintainers)

 - arm64/perf updates: PMU bindings converted to json-schema, unused
   variable and misleading comment removed

 - arm64/debug fixes to ensure checking of the triggering exception
   level and to avoid the propagation of the UNKNOWN FAR value into the
   si_code for debug signals

 - Workaround for Fujitsu A64FX erratum 010001

 - lib/raid6 ARM NEON optimisations

 - NR_CPUS now defaults to 256 on arm64

 - Minor clean-ups (documentation/comments, Kconfig warning, unused
   asm-offsets, clang warnings)

 - MAINTAINERS update for list information to the ARM64 ACPI entry
