dc883ca34a ARM64 idle: delete pm_idle
pm_idle() on arm64 was a synonym for default_idle(),
so remove it and invoke default_idle() directly.

6929039761 Merge commit '6ba1bc826d160fe4f32bcb188687dcca4bdfaf3d' into arch-arm64
Backmerge from mainline commit that introduced a trivial conflict in
arch/arm64/kernel/process.c - a bunch of functions removed next to the
place where kernel_thread() used to be.

6ba1bc826d arm64: elf: fix core dumping definitions for GP and FP registers
struct user_fp does not exist for arm64, so use struct user_fpsimd_state
instead for the ELF core dumping definitions. Furthermore, since we use
regset-based core dumping, we do not need definitions for dump_task_regs
and dump_fpu.

c34501d21b arm64: Use generic kernel_thread() implementation
This patch enables CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD on arm64, changes
copy_threads to cope with kernel threads creation and adapts
ret_from_fork accordingly. The arm64-specific kernel_thread
implementation is no longer needed.

b3901d54dc arm64: Process management
The patch adds support for thread creation and context switching. The
context switching CPU specific code is introduced with the CPU support
patch (part of the arch/arm64/mm/proc.S file). AArch64 supports
ASID-tagged TLBs and the ASID can be either 8 or 16-bit wide (detectable
via the ID_AA64AFR0_EL1 register).
