Linus Torvalds ba33ea811e 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:
 "This is another big update. Main changes are:

   - lots of x86 system call (and other traps/exceptions) entry code
     enhancements.  In particular the complex parts of the 64-bit entry
     code have been migrated to C code as well, and a number of dusty
     corners have been refreshed.  (Andy Lutomirski)

   - vDSO special mapping robustification and general cleanups (Andy
     Lutomirski)

   - cpufeature refactoring, cleanups and speedups (Borislav Petkov)

   - lots of other changes ..."
