This patch allows system call entry or exit to be traced as ftrace events,
ie. sys_enter_*/sys_exit_*, if CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS is enabled.
Those events appear and can be controlled under

Please note that we can't trace compat system calls here because
AArch32 mode does not share the same syscall table with AArch64.

This patch allows "dynamic ftrace" if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is enabled.
Here we can turn on and off tracing dynamically per-function base.
On arm64, this is done by patching single branch instruction to _mcount()
inserted by gcc -pg option. The branch is replaced to NOP initially at
kernel start up, and later on, NOP to branch to ftrace_caller() when
enabled or branch to NOP when disabled.
Please note that ftrace_caller() is a counterpart of _mcount() in case of
'static' ftrace.

This patch implements arm64 specific part to support function tracers,
such as function (CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER), function_graph
(CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER) and function profiler
(CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER).
With 'function' tracer, all the functions in the kernel are traced with
timestamps in ${sysfs}/tracing/trace. If function_graph tracer is
specified, call graph is generated.
The kernel must be compiled with -pg option so that _mcount() is inserted
at the beginning of functions. This function is called on every function's
entry as long as tracing is enabled.
In addition, function_graph tracer also needs to be able to probe function's
exit. ftrace_graph_caller() & return_to_handler do this by faking link
register's value to intercept function's return path.

Recordmcount utility under scripts is run, after compiling each object,
to find out all the locations of calling _mcount() and put them into
specific seciton named __mcount_loc.
Then linker collects all such information into a table in the kernel image
(between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc) for later use by ftrace.
This patch adds arm64 specific definitions to identify such locations.
There are two types of implementation, C and Perl. On arm64, only C version
is used to build the kernel now that CONFIG_HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT is on.
But Perl version is also maintained.
This patch also contains a workaround just in case where a header file,
elf.h, on host machine doesn't have definitions of EM_AARCH64 nor
R_AARCH64_ABS64. Without them, compiling C version of recordmcount will

HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.

Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8
code and some work done by Mark Hambleton. This patch does not
implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on
information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for
integration of topology support in the architecture.
No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during
CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code.
The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology
information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid
blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work)
with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic.
Following patches will implement support for interpreting topology
information from MPIDR and for parsing the DT topology bindings for ARM,
similar patches will be needed for ACPI.

This patch updates the arm64 defconfig to enable support for these
