      Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A couple of x86 fixes which missed rc1 due to my stupidity:
      
         - Drop lazy TLB mode before switching to the temporary address space
           for text patching.
      
           text_poke() switches to the temporary mm which clears the lazy mode
           and restores the original mm afterwards. Due to clearing lazy mode
           this might restore a already dead mm if exit_mmap() runs in
           parallel on another CPU.
      
         - Document the x32 syscall design fail vs. syscall numbers 512-547
           properly.
      
         - Fix the ORC unwinder to handle the inactive task frame correctly.
      
           This was unearthed due to the slightly different code generation of
           gcc-10.
      
         - Use an up to date screen_info for the boot params of kexec instead
           of the possibly stale and invalid version which happened to be
           valid when the kexec kernel was loaded"

      These sections are handled by the ARM_UNWIND_SECTIONS define, which is
      only added to the list of sections when CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is set.
      CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is a hidden symbol that is only selected when
      CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM is set so CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER never
      handles these sections. According to the help text of
      CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM, these sections should be discarded so that the
      kernel image size is not affected.

      vmlinux.lds.h: Keep .ctors.* with .ctors · 3e663148

      Include these orphans along with the regular .ctors section.

      Fix compat regression in process_vm_rw() · 38dc5079
      Jens Axboe authored
      The removal of compat_process_vm_{readv,writev} didn't change
      process_vm_rw(), which always assumes it's not doing a compat syscall.
      
      Instead of passing in 'false' unconditionally for 'compat', make it
      conditional on in_compat_syscall().
      
      [ Both Al and Christoph point out that trying to access a 64-bit process
        from a 32-bit one cannot work anyway, and is likely better prohibited,
        but that's a separate issue    - Linus ]

      The cause came down to a use of strcat() that was adding an string that was
      shorten, but the strcat() did not take that into account.
      
      strcat() is extremely dangerous as it does not care how big the buffer is.
      Replace it with seq_buf operations that prevent the buffer from being
      overwritten if what is being written is bigger than the buffer.
