Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86/asm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"The one change that stands out is the alternatives patching change
that prevents us from ever patching back instructions from SMP to UP:
this simplifies things and speeds up CPU hotplug.
Other than that it's smaller fixes, cleanups and improvements."
* 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86: Unspaghettize do_trap()
x86_64: Work around old GAS bug
x86: Use REP BSF unconditionally
x86: Prefer TZCNT over BFS
x86/64: Adjust types of temporaries used by ffs()/fls()/fls64()
x86: Drop unnecessary kernel_eflags variable on 64-bit
x86/smp: Don't ever patch back to UP if we unplug cpus
