Pull SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Lots of platform specific updates for Qualcomm SoCs, including a new
  TEE subsystem driver for the Qualcomm QTEE firmware interface.

  Added support for the Apple A11 SoC in drivers that are shared with
  the M1/M2 series, among more updates for those.

  Smaller platform specific driver updates for Renesas, ASpeed,
  Broadcom, Nvidia, Mediatek, Amlogic, TI, Allwinner, and Freescale
  SoCs.

  Driver updates in the cache controller, memory controller and reset
  controller subsystems.

  SCMI firmware updates to add more features and improve robustness.
  This includes support for having multiple SCMI providers in a single
  system.

  TEE subsystem support for protected DMA-bufs, allowing hardware to
  access memory areas that managed by the kernel but remain inaccessible
  from the CPU in EL1/EL0"

Pull x86 SEV and apic updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Add functionality to provide runtime firmware updates for the non-x86
   parts of an AMD platform like the security processor (ASP) firmware,
   modules etc, for example. The intent being that these updates are
   interim, live fixups before a proper BIOS update can be attempted

 - Add guest support for AMD's Secure AVIC feature which gives encrypted
   guests the needed protection against a malicious hypervisor
   generating unexpected interrupts and injecting them into such guest,
   thus interfering with its operation in an unexpected and negative
   manner.

   The advantage of this scheme is that the guest determines which
   interrupts and when to accept them vs leaving that to the benevolence
   (or not) of the hypervisor

 - Strictly separate the startup code from the rest of the kernel where
   former is executed from the initial 1:1 mapping of memory.

   The problem was that the toolchain-generated version of the code was
   being executed from a different mapping of memory than what was
   "assumed" during code generation, needing an ever-growing pile of
   fixups for absolute memory references which are invalid in the early,
   1:1 memory mapping during boot.

   The major advantage of this is that there's no need to check the 1:1
   mapping portion of the code for absolute relocations anymore and get
   rid of the RIP_REL_REF() macro sprinkling all over the place.

   For more info, see Ard's very detailed writeup on this [1]

Check for needed memory protection changes on EFI DXE GCD memory space
descriptors with type EfiGcdMemoryTypeMoreReliable in addition to
EfiGcdMemoryTypeSystemMemory.

This fixes a fault on entry into the decompressed kernel from the
EFI stub that occurs when the memory allocated for the decompressed
kernel is more reliable memory, has NX/XP set, and the kernel needs
to use the EFI DXE protocol to adjust memory protections.

The memory descriptors returned by the DXE protocol
GetMemorySpaceDescriptor() service use a different GCD memory type
to distinguish more reliable memory ranges from their conventional
counterparts. This is in contrast to the EFI memory descriptors
returned by the EFI GetMemoryMap() service which use the
EFI_MEMORY_MORE_RELIABLE memory attributes flag to identify
EFI_CONVENTIONAL_MEMORY type regions that have this additional
property.

More Qualcomm device driver updates for v6.18

Introduce support for loading firmware into the QUP serial engines from
Linux, which allows deferring selection of which protocol (uart, i2c,
spi, etc) a given SE should have until the OS loads.

Also introduce the "object invoke" interface in the SCM driver, to
provide interface to the Qualcomm TEE driver.
