Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest
  patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date,
  but a late fixup made that moot.

   - Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate
     address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big
     with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to
     diagnose failures.

     The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of
     that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of
     32bit wraparounds.

   - Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already,
     but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with
     the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with
     the fixmap code

   - A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of
     the TLB functions should be used for what.

   - Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for
     more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces
     confusing.

   - Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(),
     which is only invoked on fork().

   - Make vysycall more robust.

   - A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check
     PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the
     C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out
     of sync with the index enums.

   - Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI.

   - Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI
     integration simpler and header files less convoluted.

   - Documentation fixes and clarifications"
