Linus Torvalds e99f23c5bf arm64 fixes:
- Limit the linear region to 51-bit when KVM is running in nVHE mode
   otherwise, depending on the placement of the ID map, kernel-VA to
   hyp-VA translations may produce addresses that either conflict with
   other HYP mappings or generate addresses outside of the 52-bit
   addressable range.
 
 - Instruct kmemleak not to scan the memory reserved for kdump as this
   range is removed from the kernel linear map and therefore not
   accessible.

Pull arm64 fixes from Catalin Marinas:

 - Limit the linear region to 51-bit when KVM is running in nVHE mode.

   Otherwise, depending on the placement of the ID map, kernel-VA to
   hyp-VA translations may produce addresses that either conflict with
   other HYP mappings or generate addresses outside of the 52-bit
   addressable range.

 - Instruct kmemleak not to scan the memory reserved for kdump as this

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
