Hi Will,
I'll post a v12.4 of this patch that addresses your comments.

KEXEC_CONTROL_PAGE_SIZE just tells the core kexec code how big
we need control_code_buffer to be. That buffer is only used by
the arch code of the first stage kernel. With 64k pages the buffer
will be a full page, but we'll only use the first 4k of it.

I'll add a call to flush_icache_range() for reboot_code_buffer. I
think that should do it.

Mark Rutland had commented that calling daifset four times
through the different macros took considerable time, and
recommended a single call here.
Would you prefer a new macro for irqflags.h, maybe
#define local_daif_disable() asm("msr daifset, #0xf" : : : "memory")?

This was left over from the previous version where we
invalidated pages while copying them. I've since added
that invalidate back, so this is again needed.

I've added one in at the end of the arm64_relocate_new_kernel
code.

So something like this in assembler.h?
+/*
+ * copy_page - copy src to dest using temp registers t1-t8
+ */
+ .macro copy_page dest:req src:req t1:req t2:req t3:req t4:req t5:req
t6:req t7:req t8:req
+1: ldp /t1, /t2, [/src]
+ ldp /t3, /t4, [/src, #16]
+ ldp /t5, /t6, [/src, #32]
+ ldp /t7, /t8, [/src, #48]
+ add /src, /src, #64
+ stnp /t1, /t2, [/dest]
+ stnp /t3, /t4, [/dest, #16]
+ stnp /t5, /t6, [/dest, #32]
+ stnp /t7, /t8, [/dest, #48]
+ add /dest, /dest, #64
+ tst /src, #(PAGE_SIZE - 1)
+ b.ne 1b
+ .endm

Cache maintenance has been fixed (reintroduced) in the current code.
