arm64: rwsem: use asm-generic rwsem implementation

asm-generic offers an atomic-add based rwsem implementation, which
can avoid the need for heavier, spinlock-based synchronisation on the
fast path.

This patch makes use of the optimised implementation for arm64 CPUs.

2) Speed up create/bind in AF_PACKET, also from Daniel Borkmann.

3) Correct reciprocal_divide and update users, from Hannes Frederic
Sowa and Daniel Borkmann.

ioctl, add a "get" operation to match. From Ben Hutchings.

5) Add better trace events for debugging driver datapath problems, also
from Ben Hutchings.

6) Implement auto corking in TCP, from Eric Dumazet. Basically, if we
have a small send and a previous packet is already in the qdisc or
device queue, defer until TX completion or we get more data.

7) Allow userspace to manage ipv6 temporary addresses, from Jiri Pirko.

8) Add a qdisc bypass option for AF_PACKET sockets, from Daniel
Borkmann.

9) Share IP header compression code between Bluetooth and IEEE802154
layers, from Jukka Rissanen.

10) Fix ipv6 router reachability probing, from Jiri Benc.

11) Allow packets to be captured on macvtap devices, from Vlad Yasevich.

12) Support tunneling in GRO layer, from Jerry Chu.

13) Allow bonding to be configured fully using netlink, from Scott
Feldman.

14) Allow AF_PACKET users to obtain the VLAN TPID, just like they can
already get the TCI. From Atzm Watanabe.

15) New "Heavy Hitter" qdisc, from Terry Lam.

16) Significantly improve the IPSEC support in pktgen, from Fan Du.

17) Allow ipv4 tunnels to cache routes, just like sockets. From Tom
Herbert.

18) Add Proportional Integral Enhanced packet scheduler, from Vijay
Subramanian.

19) Allow openvswitch to mmap'd netlink, from Thomas Graf.

20) Key TCP metrics blobs also by source address, not just destination
address. From Christoph Paasch.

21) Support 10G in generic phylib. From Andy Fleming.

22) Try to short-circuit GRO flow compares using device provided RX
hash, if provided. From Tom Herbert.

The wireless and netfilter folks have been busy little bees too.

tracing,x86: Add a TSC trace_clock

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.

Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.

v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly code

An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h
is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have
even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this:

ENTRY(func1)
mov x0, xzr
ENDPROC(func1)
// fall through
ENTRY(func2)
mov x0, #1
ret
ENDPROC(func2)

Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another
architecture doesn't look completely sane either.

The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion
of proper AArch64 NOPs.
