Merge tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux
Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "Here is a (hopefully) final round of arm64 fixes for 6.12 that address some user-visible floating point register corruption. Both of the Marks have been working on this for a couple of weeks and we've ended up in a position where SVE is solid but SME still has enough pending issues that the most pragmatic solution for the release and stable backports is to disable the feature. Yes, it's a shame, but the hardware is rare as hen's teeth at the moment and we're better off getting back to a known good state before fixing it all properly. We're also improving the selftests for 6.13 to help avoid merging broken code in the future. Anyway, the good news is that we're removing a lot more code than we're adding. Summary: - Fix handling of SVE traps from userspace on preemptible kernels when converting the saved floating point state into SVE state. - Remove broken support for the SMCCCv1.3 "SVE discard hint" optimisation. - Disable SME support, as the current support code suffers from numerous issues around signal delivery, ptrace access and context-switch which can lead to user-visible corruption of the register state" * tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64: Kconfig: Make SME depend on BROKEN for now arm64: smccc: Remove broken support for SMCCCv1.3 SVE discard hint arm64/sve: Discard stale CPU state when handling SVE traps
