ARMv8.3 adds pointer authentication extension, which in this case allows
to ensure that, when offloaded to stack, return address is same at return
as at entry to the subroutine. The new instructions are nops on processors
that don't implement the extension, so that the vetification is backward
compatible.

(cherry picked from commit 9a18aae5f2)
The prevailing style seems to not have trailing whitespace, but a few
lines do. This is mostly in the perlasm files, but a few C files got
them after the reformat. This is the result of:
find . -name '*.pl' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.c' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.h' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
Then bn_prime.h was excluded since this is a generated file.
Note mkerr.pl has some changes in a heredoc for some help output, but
other lines there lack trailing whitespace too.
