NOTICE: this series are based on the arm64 for-next/tlbi branch: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git for-next/tlbi ARMv8.4-TLBI provides TLBI invalidation instruction that apply to a range of input addresses. This series add support for this feature. -- ChangeList: v3: - add check on whether binutils supports ARMv8.4-a instructions. - pass -march=armv8.4-a to KBUILD_CFLAGS. - make __TLBI_RANGE_PAGES to be 'unsigned long' explicitly. v2: - remove the __tlbi_last_level() macro. - add check for parameters in __TLBI_VADDR_RANGE macro.
