      Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
      
       - Fix for the nd_blk (NVDIMM Block Window Aperture) driver.
      
         A spec clarification requires the driver to mask off reserved bits in
         status register.  This is tagged for -stable back to the v4.2 kernel.
      
       - Fix for a kernel crash in the nvdimm unit tests when module loading
         is interrupted with SIGTERM.  Tagged for -stable since validation
         efforts external to Intel use the unit tests for qualifying
         backports.
      
       - Add a new 'size' sysfs attribute for the BTT (NVDIMM Block
         Translation Table) driver to make it symmetric with the other
         namespace personality drivers (PFN and DAX) that provide a size
         attribute for indicating how much namespace capacity is lost to
         metadata.
      
         The BTT change arrived at the start of the merge window and has
         appeared in a -next release.  It can technically wait for 4.9, but it
         is small, fixes asymmetry in the libnvdimm-sysfs interface, and
         something I would have squeezed into the v4.8 pull request had it
         arrived a few days earlier.

      perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add enable_box for client MSR uncore · 95f3be79
      Kan Liang authored
      There are bug reports about miscounting uncore counters on some
      client machines like Sandybridge, Broadwell and Skylake. It is
      very likely to be observed on idle systems.
      
      This issue is caused by a hardware issue. PERF_GLOBAL_CTL could be
      cleared after Package C7, and nothing will be count.
      The related errata (HSD 158) could be found in:
      
        www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/4th-gen-core-family-desktop-specification-update.pdf
      
      This patch tries to work around this issue by re-enabling PERF_GLOBAL_CTL
      in ->enable_box(). The workaround does not cover all cases. It helps for new
      events after returning from C7. But it cannot prevent C7, it will still
      miscount if a counter is already active.
      
      There is no drawback in leaving it enabled, so it does not need
      disable_box() here.

      perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix uncore num_counters · 10e9e7bd
      Kan Liang authored
      Some uncore boxes' num_counters value for Haswell server and
      Broadwell server are not correct (too large, off by one).
      
      This issue was found by comparing the code with the document. Although
      there is no bug report from users yet, accessing non-existent counters
      is dangerous and the behavior is undefined: it may cause miscounting or
      even crashes.
      
      This patch makes them consistent with the uncore document.

      uprobes/x86: Fix RIP-relative handling of EVEX-encoded instructions · 68187872
      Denys Vlasenko authored
      Since instruction decoder now supports EVEX-encoded instructions, two fixes
      are needed to correctly handle them in uprobes.
      
      Extended bits for MODRM.rm field need to be sanitized just like we do it
      for VEX3, to avoid encoding wrong register for register-relative access.
      
      EVEX has _two_ extended bits: b and x. Theoretically, EVEX.x should be
      ignored by the CPU (since GPRs go only up to 15, not 31), but let's be
      paranoid here: proper encoding for register-relative access
      should have EVEX.x = 1.
      
      Secondly, we should fetch vex.vvvv for EVEX too.
      This is now super easy because instruction decoder populates
      vex_prefix.bytes[2] for all flavors of (e)vex encodings, even for VEX2.
