We currently register a platform device for e820 type-12 memory and
register a nvdimm bus beneath it. Registering the platform device
triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that
search currently comes up empty. Building the nvdimm-bus registration
into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces
libnvdimm to be built-in. Instead, convert the built-in portion of
CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the
rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following
reasons:
1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing
libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting
2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem
(unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by
default)
3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan
"iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can
take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by
registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)"

The CQM task events are not safe to be called from within interrupt
context because they require performing an IPI to read the counter value
on all sockets. And performing IPIs from within IRQ context is a
"no-no".
Make do with the last read counter value currently event in
event->count when we're invoked in this context.

"Two families of fixes:

boot time.

The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).
Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().
The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

Boris reported that the sparse_irq protection around __cpu_up() in the
generic code causes a regression on Xen. Xen allocates interrupts and
some more in the xen_cpu_up() function, so it deadlocks on the
sparse_irq_lock.
There is no simple fix for this and we really should have the
protection for all architectures, but for now the only solution is to
move it to x86 where actual wreckage due to the lack of protection has
been observed.

Jin debugged a nasty cpu hotplug race which results in leaking a irq
vector on the newly hotplugged cpu.
cpu N cpu M
native_cpu_up device_shutdown
do_boot_cpu free_msi_irqs
start_secondary arch_teardown_msi_irqs
smp_callin default_teardown_msi_irqs
setup_vector_irq arch_teardown_msi_irq
__setup_vector_irq native_teardown_msi_irq
lock(vector_lock) destroy_irq
install vectors
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
---> __clear_irq_vector
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
set_cpu_online
unlock(vector_lock)
This leaves the irq vector(s) which are torn down on CPU M stale in
the vector array of CPU N, because CPU M does not see CPU N online
yet. There is a similar issue with concurrent newly setup interrupts.
The alloc/free protection of irq descriptors does not prevent the
above race, because it merily prevents interrupt descriptors from
going away or changing concurrently.
Prevent this by moving the call to setup_vector_irq() into the
vector_lock held region which protects set_cpu_online():
cpu N cpu M
native_cpu_up device_shutdown
do_boot_cpu free_msi_irqs
start_secondary arch_teardown_msi_irqs
smp_callin default_teardown_msi_irqs
lock(vector_lock) arch_teardown_msi_irq
setup_vector_irq()
__setup_vector_irq native_teardown_msi_irq
install vectors destroy_irq
set_cpu_online
unlock(vector_lock)
lock(vector_lock)
__clear_irq_vector
unlock(vector_lock)
So cpu M either sees the cpu N online before clearing the vector or
cpu N installs the vectors after cpu M has cleared it.

'115200n8'
When I enable early_printk on a kernel, I cut and paste the
console= input and add to earlyprintk parameter. But I notice
recently that ktest has not been detecting triple faults. The
way it detects it, is by seeing the kernel banner "Linux version
.." with a different kernel version pop up. Then I noticed that
early printk was no longer working on my console, which was why
ktest was not seeing it.
I bisected it down and it was added to 4.0 with this commit:
ea9e9d802902 ("Specify PCI based UART for earlyprintk")
because it converted the simple_strtoul() that converts the baud
number into a kstrtoul(). The problem with this is, I had as my
baud rate, 115200n8 (acceptable for console=ttyS0), but because
of the "n8", the kstrtoul() doesn't parse the baud rate and
returns an error, which sets the baud rate to the default 9600.
This explains the garbage on my screen.
Now, earlyprintk= kernel parameter does not say it accepts that
format. Thus, one answer would simply be me changing my kernel
parameters to remove the "n8" since it isn't parsed anyway. But
I wonder if other people run into this, and it seems strange
that the two consoles for serial accepts different input.
I could also extend this to have earlyprintk do something with
that "n8" or whatever it has and have it match the console
parsing (which, BTW, still uses simple_strtoul(), as I guess it
has to).
This patch just makes my old kernel parameter parsing work like
it use to.
Although, simple_strtoull() is considered obsolete, it is the
only standard string parsing function that parses a number that
is attached to text. Ironically, commit ea9e9d802902 also added
several calls to simple_strtoul()!

As we alloc pages with GFP_KERNEL in init_espfix_ap() which is
called before we enable local irqs, so the lockdep sub-system
would (correctly) trigger a warning about the potentially
blocking API.
So we allocate them on the boot CPU side when the secondary CPU is
brought up by the boot CPU, and hand them over to the secondary
CPU.
And we use alloc_pages_node() with the secondary CPU's node, to
make sure the espfix stack is NUMA-local to the CPU that is
going to use it.

Currently KASAN shadow region page tables created without
respect of physical offset (phys_base). This causes kernel halt
when phys_base is not zero.
So let's initialize KASAN shadow region page tables in
kasan_early_init() using __pa_nodebug() which considers
phys_base.
This patch also separates x86_64_start_kernel() from KASAN low
level details by moving kasan_map_early_shadow(init_level4_pgt)
into kasan_early_init().
Remove the comment before clear_bss() which stopped bringing
much profit to the code readability. Otherwise describing all
the new order dependencies would be too verbose.

function calls. The first call maps shadow to early_level4_pgt,
the second maps shadow to init_level4_pgt.
If we move clear_page(init_level4_pgt) earlier, we could hide
KASAN low level detail from generic x86_64 initialization code.
The next patch will do it.

If it takes longer than 12us to read the PIT counter lsb/msb,
then the error margin will never fall below 500ppm within 50ms,
and Fast TSC calibration will always fail.
This patch detects when that will happen and fails fast. Note
the failure message is not printed in that case because:
1. it will always happen on that class of hardware
2. the absence of the message is more informative than its
presence

Jan Kara and Thomas Gleixner reported boot crashes in the FPU
code:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81048a6c>] [<ffffffff81048a6c>] mxcsr_feature_mask_init+0x1c/0x40
2b:* 0f ae 85 00 fe ff ff fxsave -0x200(%rbp)
and bisected it down to the following FPU commit:
91a8c2a5b43f ("x86/fpu: Clean up and fix MXCSR handling")
The reason is that the on-stack FPU registers state variable,
used by the FXSAVE instruction, did not have the required
minimum alignment of 16 bytes, causing the general protection
fault.
This is most likely a GCC bug in older GCC versions, but the
offending commit also added a bogus extra 32-byte alignment
(which GCC ignored too).
So fix this bug by making the variable static again, but also
mark it __initdata this time, because fpu__init_system_mxcsr()
is now an __init function.

Pull init.h/module.h fragility fixes from Paul Gortmaker:
"Fixup various init.h misuses that are fragile wrt code moving to
module.h
What started as a removal of no longer required include <linux/init.h>
due to the earlier __cpuinit and __devinit removal led to the
observation that some module specfic support was living in init.h
itself, thus preventing the full removal from introducing compile
regressions.
This series includes a few final fixups needed prior to the relocation
of the modular init code from <init.h> to <module.h>. These are
things that weren't easily categorized into any of the other previous
series categories already requested for pull.
That said, each fixup branch (including this one) is independent and
there are no ordering constraints. Only the final code relocation
(which is NOT in this pull) requires that all my cleanup branches be
merged first"

Pull module_init replacement part two from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.
This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.
Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.
For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.
This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.
Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of
module_init in core code") without any regressions reported, so this
type of change isn't without precedent. It has also got the same
local testing and linux-next coverage as all the other pull requests
that I'm sending for this merge window have got.
Once again, there is an unused module_exit function removal that shows
up as an outlier upon casual inspection of the diffstat"

Pull module_init replacement part one from Paul Gortmaker:
"Replace module_init with equivalent device_initcall in non modules.
This series of commits converts non-modular code that is using the
module_init() call to hook itself into the system to instead use
device_initcall().
The conversion is a runtime no-op, since module_init actually becomes
__initcall in the non-modular case, and that in turn gets mapped onto
device_initcall. A couple files show a larger negative diffstat,
representing ones that had a module_exit function that we remove here
vs previously relying on the linker to dispose of it.
We make this conversion now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future.
The files changed here are just limited to those that would otherwise
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, in order to avoid
a compile fail, as testing has shown"

command-line.
Any parameter passed after '--' in the kernel command-line will not be
parsed by the kernel at all, instead it will be passed directly to init
process.
Currently the kernel appends elfcorehdr=<paddr> to the cmdline passed from
kexec load, and if this command-line is used to pass parameters to init
process this means that 'elfcorehdr' will not be parsed as a kernel
parameter at all which will be a problem for vmcore subsystem since it
will know nothing about the location of the ELF structure!
Prepending 'elfcorehdr' instead of appending it fixes this problem since
it ensures that it always comes before '--' and so it's always parsed as a
kernel command-line parameter.
Even with this patch things can still go wrong if 'CONFIG_CMDLINE' was
also used to embedd a command-line to the crash dump kernel and this
command-line contains '--' since the current behavior of the kernel is to
actually append the boot loader command-line to the embedded command-line.

Commit 1b7b938f1817 ("perf/x86/intel: Fix PMI handling for Intel PT") conditionally
increments active_events in x86_add_exclusive() but unconditionally decrements in
x86_del_exclusive().
These extra decrements can lead to the situation where
active_events is zero and thus the PMI handler is 'disabled'
while we have active events on the PMU generating PMIs.
This leads to a truckload of:
Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU 28.
Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
messages and generally messes up perf.
Remove the condition on the increment, double increment balanced
by a double decrement is perfectly fine.
Restructure the code a little bit to make the unconditional inc
a bit more natural.

Mike Galbraith reported:
" My i7-4790 box is having one hell of a time with this merge
window, dead in the water.
BIOS setting "Limit CPUID Maximum" upsets new fpu code
mightily. "
It turns out that Linux does a double workaround here, as per:
066941bd4eeb ("x86: unmask CPUID levels on Intel CPUs")
it undoes the BIOS workaround - but as a side effect the CPUID
state is not completely constant during early init anymore,
and the new FPU init code did not take this into account.
So what happened is that the xstate init code did not have full
CPUID available, which broke subsequent attempts to use xstate
features.
Fix this by ordering the early FPU init code to after we've
stabilized the CPUID state.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djbw/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm subsystem from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm sub-system introduces, in addition to the
libnvdimm-core, 4 drivers / enabling modules:
NFIT:
Instantiates an "nvdimm bus" with the core and registers memory
devices (NVDIMMs) enumerated by the ACPI 6.0 NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface table).
After registering NVDIMMs the NFIT driver then registers "region"
devices. A libnvdimm-region defines an access mode and the
boundaries of persistent memory media. A region may span multiple
NVDIMMs that are interleaved by the hardware memory controller. In
turn, a libnvdimm-region can be carved into a "namespace" device and
bound to the PMEM or BLK driver which will attach a Linux block
device (disk) interface to the memory.
PMEM:
Initially merged in v4.1 this driver for contiguous spans of
persistent memory address ranges is re-worked to drive
PMEM-namespaces emitted by the libnvdimm-core.
In this update the PMEM driver, on x86, gains the ability to assert
that writes to persistent memory have been flushed all the way
through the caches and buffers in the platform to persistent media.
See memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_pmem().
BLK:
This new driver enables access to persistent memory media through
"Block Data Windows" as defined by the NFIT. The primary difference
of this driver to PMEM is that only a small window of persistent
memory is mapped into system address space at any given point in
time.
Per-NVDIMM windows are reprogrammed at run time, per-I/O, to access
different portions of the media. BLK-mode, by definition, does not
support DAX.
BTT:
This is a library, optionally consumed by either PMEM or BLK, that
converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk with atomic sector
update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or power loss).
The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most applications do
not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least today's
disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do one almost certainly
gets a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and always
silently. Until an application is audited to be robust in the
presence of sector-tearing the usage of BTT is recommended.

ACPI NFIT table has System Physical Address Range Structure entries that
describe a proximity ID of each range when ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID is
set in the flags.
Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to map a proximity ID to its node ID,
and set it to a new numa_node field of nd_region_desc, which is then
conveyed to the nd_region device.
The device core arranges for btt and namespace devices to inherit their

nd_pmem attaches to persistent memory regions and namespaces emitted by
the libnvdimm subsystem, and, same as the original pmem driver, presents
the system-physical-address range as a block device.
The existing e820-type-12 to pmem setup is converted to an nvdimm_bus
that emits an nd_namespace_io device.
Note that the X in 'pmemX' is now derived from the parent region. This
provides some stability to the pmem devices names from boot-to-boot.
The minor numbers are also more predictable by passing 0 to
alloc_disk().

UEFI GetMemoryMap() uses a new attribute bit to mark mirrored memory
address ranges. See UEFI 2.5 spec pages 157-158:
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/UEFI%202_5.pdf
On EFI enabled systems scan the memory map and tell memblock about any
mirrored ranges.

based on attribute
Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).
But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.
Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.
Gen1: All memory is mirrored
Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
mirror
Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications
Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
Pro: Keep more of the capacity
Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance
Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
controller
Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
Con: I have to write memory management code to implement
The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:
1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
allocations
2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
page_alloc.c is scary).
This patch (of 3):
Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute. No functional changes

Pull first batch of KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"The bulk of the changes here is for x86. And for once it's not for
silicon that no one owns: these are really new features for everyone.
Details:
- ARM:
several features are in progress but missed the 4.2 deadline.
So here is just a smattering of bug fixes, plus enabling the
VFIO integration.
- s390:
Some fixes/refactorings/optimizations, plus support for 2GB
pages.
- x86:
* host and guest support for marking kvmclock as a stable
scheduler clock.
* support for write combining.
* support for system management mode, needed for secure boot in
guests.
* a bunch of cleanups required for the above
* support for virtualized performance counters on AMD
* legacy PCI device assignment is deprecated and defaults to "n"
in Kconfig; VFIO replaces it
On top of this there are also bug fixes and eager FPU context
loading for FPU-heavy guests.
- Common code:
Support for multiple address spaces; for now it is used only for
x86 SMM but the s390 folks also have plans"

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
places perspective. The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
majority of cases.
From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
based on it going forward. Also included is an update of the ACPI
device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
device configuration object.
The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.
There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
the last minute for 4.1.
Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
_MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
Lv Zheng).
- ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).
- rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).
- fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).
- fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
(Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).
- support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).
- ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).
- ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).
- cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).
- assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).
- fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).
- fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
Kandoi).
- support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).
- new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
Rafael J Wysocki).
- wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).
- new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).
- assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).
- cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).
- cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).
- serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
Bhargava, Joe Konno).
- cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).
- assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).
- new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
Points (Viresh Kumar).
- updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
(Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).
- PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).
- Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
"There were so many changes in the x86/asm, x86/apic and x86/mm topics
in this cycle that the topical separation of -tip broke down somewhat -
so the result is a more traditional architecture pull request,
collected into the 'x86/core' topic.
The topics were still maintained separately as far as possible, so
bisectability and conceptual separation should still be pretty good -
but there were a handful of merge points to avoid excessive
dependencies (and conflicts) that would have been poorly tested in the
end.
The next cycle will hopefully be much more quiet (or at least will
have fewer dependencies).
The main changes in this cycle were:
* x86/apic changes, with related IRQ core changes: (Jiang Liu, Thomas
Gleixner)
- This is the second and most intrusive part of changes to the x86
interrupt handling - full conversion to hierarchical interrupt
domains:
[IOAPIC domain] -----
|
[MSI domain] --------[Remapping domain] ----- [ Vector domain ]
| (optional) |
[HPET MSI domain] ----- |
|
[DMAR domain] -----------------------------
|
[Legacy domain] -----------------------------
This now reflects the actual hardware and allowed us to distangle
the domain specific code from the underlying parent domain, which
can be optional in the case of interrupt remapping. It's a clear
separation of functionality and removes quite some duct tape
constructs which plugged the remap code between ioapic/msi/hpet
and the vector management.
- Intel IOMMU IRQ remapping enhancements, to allow direct interrupt
injection into guests (Feng Wu)
* x86/asm changes:
- Tons of cleanups and small speedups, micro-optimizations. This
is in preparation to move a good chunk of the low level entry
code from assembly to C code (Denys Vlasenko, Andy Lutomirski,
Brian Gerst)
- Moved all system entry related code to a new home under
arch/x86/entry/ (Ingo Molnar)
- Removal of the fragile and ugly CFI dwarf debuginfo annotations.
Conversion to C will reintroduce many of them - but meanwhile
they are only getting in the way, and the upstream kernel does
not rely on them (Ingo Molnar)
- NOP handling refinements. (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/mm changes:
- Big PAT and MTRR rework: making the code more robust and
preparing to phase out exposing direct MTRR interfaces to drivers -
in favor of using PAT driven interfaces (Toshi Kani, Luis R
Rodriguez, Borislav Petkov)
- New ioremap_wt()/set_memory_wt() interfaces to support
Write-Through cached memory mappings. This is especially
important for good performance on NVDIMM hardware (Toshi Kani)
* x86/ras changes:
- Add support for deferred errors on AMD (Aravind Gopalakrishnan)
This is an important RAS feature which adds hardware support for
poisoned data. That means roughly that the hardware marks data
which it has detected as corrupted but wasn't able to correct, as
poisoned data and raises an APIC interrupt to signal that in the
form of a deferred error. It is the OS's responsibility then to
take proper recovery action and thus prolonge system lifetime as
far as possible.
- Add support for Intel "Local MCE"s: upcoming CPUs will support
CPU-local MCE interrupts, as opposed to the traditional system-
wide broadcasted MCE interrupts (Ashok Raj)
- Misc cleanups (Borislav Petkov)
* x86/platform changes:
- Intel Atom SoC updates
... and lots of other cleanups, fixlets and other changes - see the
shortlog and the Git log for details"

Pull x86 FPU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains two main changes:
- The big FPU code rewrite: wide reaching cleanups and reorganization
that pulls all the FPU code together into a clean base in
arch/x86/fpu/.
The resulting code is leaner and faster, and much easier to
understand. This enables future work to further simplify the FPU
code (such as removing lazy FPU restores).
By its nature these changes have a substantial regression risk: FPU
code related bugs are long lived, because races are often subtle
and bugs mask as user-space failures that are difficult to track
back to kernel side backs. I'm aware of no unfixed (or even
suspected) FPU related regression so far.
- MPX support rework/fixes. As this is still not a released CPU
feature, there were some buglets in the code - should be much more
robust now (Dave Hansen)"

Pull x86 CPU features from Ingo Molnar:
"Various CPU feature support related changes: in particular the
/proc/cpuinfo model name sanitization change should be monitored, it
has a chance to break stuff. (but really shouldn't and there are no
regression reports)"
