Linus Torvalds 35277995e1 Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull spectre/meltdown updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The next round of updates related to melted spectrum:

   - The initial set of spectre V1 mitigations:

       - Array index speculation blocker and its usage for syscall,
         fdtable and the n180211 driver.

       - Speculation barrier and its usage in user access functions

   - Make indirect calls in KVM speculation safe

   - Blacklisting of known to be broken microcodes so IPBP/IBSR are not
     touched.

   - The initial IBPB support and its usage in context switch

   - The exposure of the new speculation MSRs to KVM guests.

   - A fix for a regression in x86/32 related to the cpu entry area

   - Proper whitelisting for known to be safe CPUs from the mitigations.

   - objtool fixes to deal proper with retpolines and alternatives

   - Exclude __init functions from retpolines which speeds up the boot
     process.

   - Removal of the syscall64 fast path and related cleanups and
     simplifications

   - Removal of the unpatched paravirt mode which is yet another source
     of indirect unproteced calls.

   - A new and undisputed version of the module mismatch warning

   - A couple of cleanup and correctness fixes all over the place

  Yet another step towards full mitigation. There are a few things still
  missing like the RBS underflow mitigation for Skylake and other small
  details, but that's being worked on.

  That said, I'm taking a belated christmas vacation for a week and hope
  that everything is magically solved when I'm back on Feb 12th"
