Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest part is a series of reverts for the macro based GCC
  inlining workarounds. It caused regressions in distro build and other
  kernel tooling environments, and the GCC project was very receptive to
  fixing the underlying inliner weaknesses - so as time ran out we
  decided to do a reasonably straightforward revert of the patches. The
  plan is to rely on the 'asm inline' GCC 9 feature, which might be
  backported to GCC 8 and could thus become reasonably widely available
  on modern distros.

  Other than those reverts, there's misc fixes from all around the
  place.

  I wish our final x86 pull request for v4.20 was smaller..."
