Catalin Marinas 16c85a1fd7 arm64: Use acquire/release semantics instead of explicit DMB
This patch changes the test_and_*_bit functions to use the
load-acquire/store-release instructions instead of explicit DMB.

Mark Rutland c47d6a04e6 arm64: klib: bitops: fix unpredictable stxr usage
We're currently relying on unpredictable behaviour in our testops
(test_and_*_bit), as stxr is unpredictable when the status register and
the source register are the same

This patch changes reallocates the status register so as to bring us back into
the realm of predictable behaviour. Boot tested on an AEMv8 model.

Catalin Marinas 4a8992271c arm64: klib: Optimised memory functions
This patch introduces AArch64-specific memory functions (memcpy,
memmove, memchr, memset). These functions are not optimised for any CPU
implementation but can be used as a starting point once hardware is
available.

Catalin Marinas 0aea86a217 arm64: User access library functions
This patch add support for various user access functions. These
functions use the standard LDR/STR instructions and not the LDRT/STRT
variants in order to allow kernel addresses (after set_fs(KERNEL_DS)).
