Merge tag 'x86-urgent-2023-03-05' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A small set of updates for x86:

   - Return -EIO instead of success when the certificate buffer for SEV
     guests is not large enough

   - Allow STIPB to be enabled with legacy IBSR. Legacy IBRS is cleared
     on return to userspace for performance reasons, but the leaves user
     space vulnerable to cross-thread attacks which STIBP prevents.
     Update the documentation accordingly"
