Merge tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.3_rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:
 "There's a little bit more 'movement' in there for my taste but it
  needs to happen and should make the code better after it.

   - Check cmdline_find_option()'s return value before further
     processing

   - Clear temporary storage in the resctrl code to prevent access to an
     unexistent MSR

   - Add a simple throttling mechanism to protect the hypervisor from
     potentially malicious SEV guests issuing requests in rapid
     succession.

     In order to not jeopardize the sanity of everyone involved in
     maintaining this code, the request issuing side has received a
     cleanup, split in more or less trivial, small and digestible
     pieces. Otherwise, the code was threatening to become an
     unmaintainable mess.

     Therefore, that cleanup is marked indirectly also for stable so
     that there's no differences between the upstream code and the
     stable variant when it comes down to backporting more there"
