Pull ARM spectre updates from Russell King:
"These are the currently known final bits that resolve the Spectre
issues. big.Little systems used to be sufficiently identical in that
there were no differences between individual CPUs in the system that
mattered to the kernel. With the advent of the Spectre problem, the
CPUs now have differences in how the workaround is applied.
As a result of previous Spectre patches, these systems ended up
reporting quite a lot of:
"CPUx: Spectre v2: incorrect context switching function, system vulnerable"
messages due to the action of the big.Little switcher causing the CPUs
to be re-initialised regularly. This series resolves that issue by
making the CPU vtable unique to each CPU.
However, since this is used very early, before per-cpu is setup,
per-cpu can't be used. We also have a problem that two of the methods
are not called from preempt-safe paths, but thankfully these remain
identical between all CPUs in the system. To make sure, we validate
that these are identical during boot"
* 'spectre' of git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: spectre-v2: per-CPU vtables to work around big.Little systems
ARM: add PROC_VTABLE and PROC_TABLE macros
ARM: clean up per-processor check_bugs method call
ARM: split out processor lookup
ARM: make lookup_processor_type() non-__init
