Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 page table isolation fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A couple of urgent fixes for PTI:
- Fix a PTE mismatch between user and kernel visible mapping of the
cpu entry area (differs vs. the GLB bit) and causes a TLB mismatch
MCE on older AMD K8 machines
- Fix the misplaced CR3 switch in the SYSCALL compat entry code which
causes access to unmapped kernel memory resulting in double faults.
- Fix the section mismatch of the cpu_tss_rw percpu storage caused by
using a different mechanism for declaration and definition.
- Two fixes for dumpstack which help to decode entry stack issues
better
- Enable PTI by default in Kconfig. We should have done that earlier,
but it slipped through the cracks.
- Exclude AMD from the PTI enforcement. Not necessarily a fix, but if
AMD is so confident that they are not affected, then we should not
burden users with the overhead"
