Commit Message

Vincenzo Frascino Dec. 10, 2018, 2:30 p.m. UTC 
On arm64 the TCR_EL1.TBI0 bit has been set since Linux 3.x hence
the userspace (EL0) is allowed to set a non-zero value in the top
byte but the resulting pointers are not allowed at the user-kernel
syscall ABI boundary.

This patch sets ARM64_AT_FLAGS_SYSCALL_TBI (bit[0]) in the AT_FLAGS
to advertise the relaxation of the ABI to the userspace.
