Merge tag 'x86-pasid-2022-03-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 PASID support from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Reenable ENQCMD/PASID support:

   - Simplify the PASID handling to allocate the PASID once, associate
     it to the mm of a process and free it on mm_exit().

     The previous attempt of refcounted PASIDs and dynamic
     alloc()/free() turned out to be error prone and too complex. The
     PASID space is 20bits, so the case of resource exhaustion is a pure
     academic concern.

   - Populate the PASID MSR on demand via #GP to avoid racy updates via
     IPIs.

   - Reenable ENQCMD and let objtool check for the forbidden usage of
     ENQCMD in the kernel.

   - Update the documentation for Shared Virtual Addressing accordingly"
