This is building and booting on linux-gcp, so as far as I'm aware this
should be considered verified. This was also included as part of a
patchset that was verified (#2111859).

We should reevaluate if these patches should still be included in linux-
gcp since they were pulled from the generic kernel. I will ask Tim about
this.

  On an Ampere AltraMax system w/ 4K page size, kernel builds in a tmpfs
  are reduced from 6m30s to 5m17s, a ~19% improvement.

  It has been reported that this can have a *10x* improvement for
  certain GPU workloads on ARM:
