    Pull x86 conversion to generic entry code from Thomas Gleixner:
     "The conversion of X86 syscall, interrupt and exception entry/exit
      handling to the generic code.
    
      Pretty much a straight-forward 1:1 conversion plus the consolidation
      of the KVM handling of pending work before entering guest mode"
