mainlining shenanigans

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Another set of x86 related updates:
- Fix the long broken x32 version of the IPC user space headers which
was noticed by Arnd Bergman in course of his ongoing y2038 work.
GLIBC seems to have non broken private copies of these headers so
this went unnoticed.
- Two microcode fixlets which address some more fallout from the
recent modifications in that area:
- Unconditionally save the microcode patch, which was only saved
when CPU_HOTPLUG was enabled causing failures in the late
loading mechanism
- Make the later loader synchronization finally work under all
circumstances. It was exiting early and causing timeout failures
due to a missing synchronization point.
- Do not use mwait_play_dead() on AMD systems to prevent excessive
power consumption as the CPU cannot go into deep power states from
there.
- Address an annoying sparse warning due to lost type qualifiers of
the vmemmap and vmalloc base address constants.
- Prevent reserving crash kernel region on Xen PV as this leads to
the wrong perception that crash kernels actually work there which
is not the case. Xen PV has its own crash mechanism handled by the
hypervisor.
- Add missing TLB cpuid values to the table to make the printout on
certain machines correct.
- Enumerate the new CLDEMOTE instruction
- Fix an incorrect SPDX identifier
- Remove stale macros"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
