Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of x86 specific fixes and updates: - The CR2 corruption fixes which store CR2 early in the entry code and hand the stored address to the fault handlers. - Revert a forgotten leftover of the dropped FSGSBASE series. - Plug a memory leak in the boot code. - Make the Hyper-V assist functionality robust by zeroing the shadow page. - Remove a useless check for dead processes with LDT - Update paravirt and VMware maintainers entries. - A few cleanup patches addressing various compiler warnings" * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/entry/64: Prevent clobbering of saved CR2 value x86/hyper-v: Zero out the VP ASSIST PAGE on allocation x86, boot: Remove multiple copy of static function sanitize_boot_params() x86/boot/compressed/64: Remove unused variable x86/boot/efi: Remove unused variables x86/mm, tracing: Fix CR2 corruption x86/entry/64: Update comments and sanity tests for create_gap x86/entry/64: Simplify idtentry a little x86/entry/32: Simplify common_exception x86/paravirt: Make read_cr2() CALLEE_SAVE MAINTAINERS: Update PARAVIRT_OPS_INTERFACE and VMWARE_HYPERVISOR_INTERFACE x86/process: Delete useless check for dead process with LDT x86: math-emu: Hide clang warnings for 16-bit overflow x86/e820: Use proper booleans instead of 0/1 x86/apic: Silence -Wtype-limits compiler warnings x86/mm: Free sme_early_buffer after init x86/boot: Fix memory leak in default_get_smp_config() Revert "x86/ptrace: Prevent ptrace from clearing the FS/GS selector" and fix the test
