Since Armv9.6, FEAT_LSUI supplies the load/store instructions for
previleged level to access to access user memory without clearing
PSTATE.PAN bit.

This patchset support FEAT_LSUI and applies it mainly in
futex atomic operation and others.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/feat_lsui), thanks!

Thanks!

I decided to drop patch [6/8] (arm64: armv8_deprecated: disable swp
emulation when FEAT_LSUI present). The way FEAT_LSUI support looks now,
we still have uaccess_enable_privileged() working properly and we could
even support SWP emulation using exclusives. While it's highly unlikely
to see both 32-bit EL0 and FEAT_LSUI in practice,

This is one of decisive reason to drop the swp emulation with LSUI
(https://lore.kernel.org/all/aXDbBKhE1SdCW6q4@willie-the-truck/ (local))

However,

models may support the
combination and disabling SWP emulation feels pretty artificial.

But I'm not sure this is a sufficient rationale for supporting SWP with LSUI,
since it's highly unlikely to encounter a real CPU that supports both 32-bit EL0
and FEAT_LSUI.

Anyway, it's fair enough to drop 6/8 right now.
But I appreciate whether it would be good to support SWP emulation with
LSUI so that let me respin for it with the former patch.
