Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another pile of melted spectrum related updates:
- Drop native vsyscall support finally as it causes more trouble than
benefit.
- Make microcode loading more robust. There were a few issues
especially related to late loading which are now surfacing because
late loading of the IB* microcodes addressing spectre issues has
become more widely used.
- Simplify and robustify the syscall handling in the entry code
- Prevent kprobes on the entry trampoline code which lead to kernel
crashes when the probe hits before CR3 is updated
- Don't check microcode versions when running on hypervisors as they
are considered as lying anyway.
- Fix the 32bit objtool build and a coment typo"
