Merge tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"The diffstat is a bit spread out thanks to an invasive CPU erratum
workaround which missed the merge window and also a bunch of fixes to
the recently added MTE selftests.
- Fixes to MTE kselftests
- Fix return code from KVM Spectre-v2 hypercall
- Build fixes for ld.lld and Clang's infamous integrated assembler
- Ensure RCU is up and running before we use printk()
- Workaround for Cortex-A77 erratum 1508412
- Fix linker warnings from unexpected ELF sections
- Ensure PE/COFF sections are 64k aligned"
