Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The accumulated fixes from this and last week:
- Fix vmalloc TLB flush and map range calculations which lead to
stale TLBs, spurious faults and other hard to diagnose issues.
- Use fault_in_pages_writable() for prefaulting the user stack in the
FPU code as it's less fragile than the current solution
- Use the PF_KTHREAD flag when checking for a kernel thread instead
of current->mm as the latter can give the wrong answer due to
use_mm()
- Compute the vmemmap size correctly for KASLR and 5-Level paging.
Otherwise this can end up with a way too small vmemmap area.
- Make KASAN and 5-level paging work again by making sure that all
invalid bits are masked out when computing the P4D offset. This
worked before but got broken recently when the LDT remap area was
moved.
- Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in the resource control code
which can be triggered with certain mount options when the
requested resource is not available.
- Enforce ordering of microcode loading vs. perf initialization on
secondary CPUs. Otherwise perf tries to access a non-existing MSR
as the boot CPU marked it as available.
- Don't stop the resource control group walk early otherwise the
control bitmaps are not updated correctly and become inconsistent.
- Unbreak kgdb by returning 0 on success from
kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() instead of an error code.
- Add more Icelake CPU model defines so depending changes can be
queued in other trees"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
