[PATCH RFC v9 07/25] arm64: Context-switch POR_EL1

Newsgroups org.infradead.lists.linux-arm-kernel,org.kernel.vger.linux-hardening,org.kvack.linux-mm
Message-ID <[email protected]>
POR_EL1 is about to be used by the kpkeys framework, modifying it
for (typically small) sections of code. If an exception occurs
during that window and scheduling occurs, we must ensure that
POR_EL1 is context-switched as needed (saving the old value and
restoring the new one). An ISB is needed to ensure the write takes
effect, so we skip it if the new value is the same as the old, like
for POR_EL0.
