Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of fixes for x86: - Fix the bogus detection of 32bit user mode for uretprobes which caused corruption of the user return address resulting in application crashes. In the uprobes handler in_ia32_syscall() is obviously always returning false on a 64bit kernel. Use user_64bit_mode() instead which works correctly. - Prevent large page splitting when ftrace flips RW/RO on the kernel text which caused iTLB performance issues. Ftrace wants to be converted to text_poke() which avoids the problem, but for now allow large page preservation in the static protections check when the change request spawns a full large page. - Prevent arch_dynirq_lower_bound() from returning 0 when the IOAPIC is configured via device tree. In the device tree case the GSI 1:1 mapping is meaningless therefore the lower bound which protects the GSI range on ACPI machines is irrelevant. Return the lower bound which the core hands to the function instead of blindly returning 0 which causes the core to allocate the invalid virtual interupt number 0 which in turn prevents all drivers from allocating and requesting an interrupt. - Remove the bogus initialization of LDR and DFR in the 32bit bigsmp APIC driver. That uses physical destination mode where LDR/DFR are ignored, but the initialization and the missing clear of LDR caused the APIC to be left in a inconsistent state on kexec/reboot. - Clear LDR when clearing the APIC registers so the APIC is in a well defined state. - Initialize variables proper in the find_trampoline_placement() code. - Silence GCC( build warning for the real mode part of the build" * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/mm/cpa: Prevent large page split when ftrace flips RW on kernel text x86/build: Add -Wnoaddress-of-packed-member to REALMODE_CFLAGS, to silence GCC9 build warning x86/boot/compressed/64: Fix missing initialization in find_trampoline_placement() x86/apic: Include the LDR when clearing out APIC registers x86/apic: Do not initialize LDR and DFR for bigsmp uprobes/x86: Fix detection of 32-bit user mode x86/apic: Fix arch_dynirq_lower_bound() bug for DT enabled machines
