Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "This is a large update by KVM standards, including AMD PSP (Platform
  Security Processor, aka "AMD Secure Technology") and ARM CoreSight
  (debug and trace) changes.

  ARM:

   - CoreSight: Add support for ETE and TRBE

   - Stage-2 isolation for the host kernel when running in protected
     mode

   - Guest SVE support when running in nVHE mode

   - Force W^X hypervisor mappings in nVHE mode

   - ITS save/restore for guests using direct injection with GICv4.1

   - nVHE panics now produce readable backtraces

   - Guest support for PTP using the ptp_kvm driver

   - Performance improvements in the S2 fault handler

  x86:

   - AMD PSP driver changes

   - Optimizations and cleanup of nested SVM code

   - AMD: Support for virtual SPEC_CTRL

   - Optimizations of the new MMU code: fast invalidation, zap under
     read lock, enable/disably dirty page logging under read lock

   - /dev/kvm API for AMD SEV live migration (guest API coming soon)

   - support SEV virtual machines sharing the same encryption context

   - support SGX in virtual machines

   - add a few more statistics

   - improved directed yield heuristics

   - Lots and lots of cleanups

  Generic:

   - Rework of MMU notifier interface, simplifying and optimizing the
     architecture-specific code

   - a handful of "Get rid of oprofile leftovers" patches

   - Some selftests improvements"

<title>time: Add mechanism to recognize clocksource in time_get_snapshot</title>

<content type='text'>
System time snapshots are not conveying information about the current
clocksource which was used, but callers like the PTP KVM guest
implementation have the requirement to evaluate the clocksource type to
select the appropriate mechanism.

Introduce a clocksource id field in struct clocksource which is by default
set to CSID_GENERIC (0). Clocksource implementations can set that field to
a value which allows to identify the clocksource.

Store the clocksource id of the current clocksource in the
system_time_snapshot so callers can evaluate which clocksource was used to
take the snapshot and act accordingly.

With Arm EBSA110 gone, nothing uses it any more, so the corresponding
code and the Kconfig option can be removed.

CONFIG_GENERIC_VDSO_CLOCK_MODE was a transitional config switch which got
removed after all architectures got converted to the new storage model.

But the removal forgot to remove the #ifdef which guards the
vdso_clock_mode sanity check, which effectively disables the sanity check.

Remove it now.

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.

Provide generic storage for it. The new Kconfig symbol is intermediate and
will be removed once all architectures are converted over.

<title>clocksource: Prevent double add_timer_on() for watchdog_timer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:febac332a819f0e764aa4da62757ba21d18c182b</id>
<content type='text'>
Kernel crashes inside QEMU/KVM are observed:

  kernel BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:1154!
  BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer-&gt;function) in add_timer_on().

At the same time another cpu got:

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI of poinson pointer 0xdead000000000200 in:

  __hlist_del at include/linux/list.h:681
  (inlined by) detach_timer at kernel/time/timer.c:818
  (inlined by) expire_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1355
  (inlined by) __run_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1686
  (inlined by) run_timer_softirq at kernel/time/timer.c:1699

Unfortunately kernel logs are badly scrambled, stacktraces are lost.

Printing the timer-&gt;function before the BUG_ON() pointed to
clocksource_watchdog().

The execution of clocksource_watchdog() can race with a sequence of
clocksource_stop_watchdog() .. clocksource_start_watchdog():

expire_timers()
 detach_timer(timer, true);
  timer-&gt;entry.pprev = NULL;
 raw_spin_unlock_irq(&amp;base-&gt;lock);
 call_timer_fn
  clocksource_watchdog()

					clocksource_watchdog_kthread() or
					clocksource_unbind()

					spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);
					clocksource_stop_watchdog();
					 del_timer(&amp;watchdog_timer);
					 watchdog_running = 0;
					spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);

					spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);
					clocksource_start_watchdog();
					 add_timer_on(&amp;watchdog_timer, ...);
					 watchdog_running = 1;
					spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);

  spin_lock(&amp;watchdog_lock);
  add_timer_on(&amp;watchdog_timer, ...);
   BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer-&gt;function);
    timer_pending() -&gt; true
    BUG()

I.e. inside clocksource_watchdog() watchdog_timer could be already armed.

Check timer_pending() before calling add_timer_on(). This is sufficient as
all operations are synchronized by watchdog_lock.

<content type='text'>
Update the time(r) core files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the
full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Philippe Ombredanne, Kate
Stewart and myself. The data has been created with two independent license
scanners and manual inspection.

The following files do not contain any direct license information and have
been omitted from the big initial SPDX changes:

  timeconst.bc: The .bc files were not touched
  time.c, timer.c, timekeeping.c: Licence was deduced from EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

As those files do not contain direct license references they fall under the
project license, i.e. GPL V2 only.
