[PATCH 0/29] arm meltdown fix backporting review for lts 4.9

[alex.shi@linaro.org (Alex Shi)]

Hi All,

This backport patchset fixed the meltdown issue, it's original branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git/log/?h=kpti
A few dependency or fixingpatches are also picked up, if they are necessary
 and no functional changes.

The patchset also on repository:
	git://git.linaro.org/kernel/linux-linaro-stable.git lts-4.9-spectrevv2 

No bug found yet from kernelci.org and lkft testing.

Any comments are appreciated!

Regards
Alex
