Linus Torvalds ed58d66f60 Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Yet another pile of melted spectrum related updates:

   - Drop native vsyscall support finally as it causes more trouble than
     benefit.

   - Make microcode loading more robust. There were a few issues
     especially related to late loading which are now surfacing because
     late loading of the IB* microcodes addressing spectre issues has
     become more widely used.

   - Simplify and robustify the syscall handling in the entry code

   - Prevent kprobes on the entry trampoline code which lead to kernel
     crashes when the probe hits before CR3 is updated

   - Don't check microcode versions when running on hypervisors as they
     are considered as lying anyway.

   - Fix the 32bit objtool build and a coment typo"
