Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin: "This is a collection of minor fixes for x86, plus the IRET information leak fix (forbid the use of 16-bit segments in 64-bit mode)" NOTE! We may have to relax the "forbid the use of 16-bit segments in 64-bit mode" part, since there may be people who still run and depend on 16-bit Windows binaries under Wine. But I'm taking this in the current unconditional form for now to see who (if anybody) screams bloody murder. Maybe nobody cares. And maybe we'll have to update it with some kind of runtime enablement (like our vm.mmap_min_addr tunable that people who run dosemu/qemu/wine already need to tweak). * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels efi: Pass correct file handle to efi_file_{read,close} x86/efi: Correct EFI boot stub use of code32_start x86/efi: Fix boot failure with EFI stub x86/platform/hyperv: Handle VMBUS driver being a module x86/apic: Reinstate error IRQ Pentium erratum 3AP workaround x86, CMCI: Add proper detection of end of CMCI storms
