Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Most of the changes relate to Peter Zijlstra's cleanup of ptregs
handling, in particular the i386 part is now much simplified and
standardized - no more partial ptregs stack frames via the esp/ss
oddity. This simplifies ftrace, kprobes, the unwinder, ptrace, kdump
and kgdb.
There's also a CR4 hardening enhancements by Kees Cook, to make the
generic platform functions such as native_write_cr4() less useful as
ROP gadgets that disable SMEP/SMAP. Also protect the WP bit of CR0
against similar attacks.
The rest is smaller cleanups/fixes"
