[PATCH] arm64: mm: support instruction SETEND

From: Leo Yan
Date: Wed Jan 07 2015 - 00:52:34 EST


Currently kernel has set the bit SCTLR_EL1.SED, so the SETEND
instruction will be treated as UNALLOCATED; this error can be
reproduced when ARMv8 cpu runs with EL1/aarch64 and EL0/aarch32
mode, finally kernel will trap the exception if the userspace
libs use SETEND instruction.

So this patch clears bit SCTLR_EL1.SED to support SETEND instruction.
