Jiang Liu 6db83cea1c arm64: fix possible invalid FPSIMD initialization state
If context switching happens during executing fpsimd_flush_thread(),
stale value in FPSIMD registers will be saved into current thread's
fpsimd_state by fpsimd_thread_switch(). That may cause invalid
initialization state for the new process, so disable preemption
when executing fpsimd_flush_thread().

Ard Biesheuvel 4cfb361364 arm64: add support for kernel mode NEON
Add <asm/neon.h> containing kernel_neon_begin/kernel_neon_end function
declarations and corresponding definitions in fpsimd.c

These are needed to wrap uses of NEON in kernel mode. The names are
identical to the ones used in arm/ so code using intrinsics or
vectorized by GCC can be shared between arm and arm64.

Catalin Marinas 53631b54c8 arm64: Floating point and SIMD
This patch adds support for FP/ASIMD register bank saving and restoring
during context switch and FP exception handling to generate SIGFPE.
There are 32 128-bit registers and the context switching is currently
done non-lazily. Benchmarks on real hardware are required before
implementing lazy FP state saving/restoring.
