      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "Speculation:
      
         - Make the microcode check more robust
      
         - Make the L1TF memory limit depend on the internal cache physical
           address space and not on the CPUID advertised physical address
           space, which might be significantly smaller. This avoids disabling
           L1TF on machines which utilize the full physical address space.
      
         - Fix the GDT mapping for EFI calls on 32bit PTI
      
         - Fix the MCE nospec implementation to prevent #GP
      
        Fixes and robustness:
      
         - Use the proper operand order for LSL in the VDSO
      
         - Prevent NMI uaccess race against CR3 switching
      
         - Add a lockdep check to verify that text_mutex is held in
           text_poke() functions
      
         - Repair the fallout of giving native_restore_fl() a prototype
      
         - Prevent kernel memory dumps based on usermode RIP
      
         - Wipe KASAN shadow stack before rewinding the stack to prevent false
           positives
      
         - Move the AMS GOTO enforcement to the actual build stage to allow
           user API header extraction without a compiler
      
         - Fix a section mismatch introduced by the on demand VDSO mapping
           change
      
        Miscellaneous:
      
         - Trivial typo, GCC quirk removal and CC_SET/OUT() cleanups"

      Pull core fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A small set of updates for core code:
      
         - Prevent tracing in functions which are called from trace patching
           via stop_machine() to prevent executing half patched function trace
           entries.
      
         - Remove old GCC workarounds
      
         - Remove pointless includes of notifier.h"

      x86/pti: Fix section mismatch warning/error · ff924c5a
      Randy Dunlap authored
      Fix the section mismatch warning in arch/x86/mm/pti.c:
      
      WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6972a): Section mismatch in reference from the function pti_clone_pgtable() to the function .init.text:pti_user_pagetable_walk_pte()
      The function pti_clone_pgtable() references
      the function __init pti_user_pagetable_walk_pte().
      This is often because pti_clone_pgtable lacks a __init
      annotation or the annotation of pti_user_pagetable_walk_pte is wrong.
      FATAL: modpost: Section mismatches detected.
      
      Fixes: 85900ea5 ("x86/pti: Map the vsyscall page if needed")
