    Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
     "Here are the core arm64 updates for 4.1.
    
      Highlights include a significant rework to head.S (allowing us to boot
      on machines with physical memory at a really high address), an AES
      performance boost on Cortex-A57 and the ability to run a 32-bit
      userspace with 64k pages (although this requires said userspace to be
      built with a recent binutils).
    
      The head.S rework spilt over into KVM, so there are some changes under
      arch/arm/ which have been acked by Marc Zyngier (KVM co-maintainer).
      In particular, the linker script changes caused us some issues in
      -next, so there are a few merge commits where we had to apply fixes on
      top of a stable branch.
    
      Other changes include:
    
       - AES performance boost for Cortex-A57
       - AArch32 (compat) userspace with 64k pages
       - Cortex-A53 erratum workaround for #845719
       - defconfig updates (new platforms, PCI, ...)"
