Javi Merino 0359b0e2d0 arm64: head: match all affinity levels in the pen of the secondaries
The reg property of the cpu nodes in the DT now contains all the
affinity levels in (MPIDR[39:32] and MPIDR[23:0]) and that's what
boot_secondary() writes in the pen, so increase the mask in
secondary_holding_pen accordingly.

Catalin Marinas 2475ff9d2c arm64: Add simple earlyprintk support
This patch adds support for "earlyprintk=" parameter on the kernel
command line. The format is:

  earlyprintk=<name>[,<addr>][,<options>]

where <name> is the name of the (UART) device, e.g. "pl011", <addr> is
the I/O address. The <options> aren't currently used.

The mapping of the earlyprintk device is done very early during kernel
boot and there are restrictions on which functions it can call. A
special early_io_map() function is added which creates the mapping from
the pre-defined EARLY_IOBASE to the device I/O address passed via the
kernel parameter. The pgd entry corresponding to EARLY_IOBASE is
pre-populated in head.S during kernel boot.

Only PL011 is currently supported and it is assumed that the interface
is already initialised by the boot loader before the kernel is started.

Marc Zyngier 7dbfbe5b2f arm64: hyp: initialize vttbr_el2 to zero
The architecture doesn't mandate any reset value for vttbr_el2.
Better set it to a known value before some HYP code gets confused.

Marc Zyngier 712c6ff4db arm64: add hypervisor stub
If booted in EL2, install an dummy hypervisor whose only purpose
is to be replaced by a full fledged one.

A minimal API allows to:
- obtain the current HYP vectors (__hyp_get_vectors)
- set new HYP vectors (__hyp_set_vectors)

Marc Zyngier f35a92053b arm64: record boot mode when entering the kernel
To be able to signal the availability of EL2 to other parts of
the kernel, record the boot mode.

Once booted, two predicates indicate if HYP mode is available,
and if not, whether this is due to a boot mode mismatch or not.

Will Deacon 1f75ff0a3d arm64: generic timer: use virtual counter instead of physical at EL0
We want to use the virtual counter at EL0, as the physical counter
may not track the current clocksource for guests running under a
hypervisor.

This patch updates the vdso and generic timer driver to use the virtual
counter. The kernel EL2 entry code is also updated to ensure that the
virtual offset is initialised to zero.

Catalin Marinas 9703d9d7f7 arm64: Kernel booting and initialisation
The patch adds the kernel booting and the initial setup code.
Documentation/arm64/booting.txt describes the booting protocol on the
AArch64 Linux kernel. This is subject to change following the work on
boot standardisation, ACPI.
