Pull EFI fix from Ard Biesheuvel:
 "Fix for the x86 EFI workaround keeping boot services code and data
  regions reserved until after SetVirtualAddressMap() completes:
  deferred struct page initialization may result in some of this memory
  being lost permanently"

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:

 - Fix SEV guest boot failures in certain circumstances, due to
   very early code relying on a BSS-zeroed variable that isn't
   actually zeroed yet an may contain non-zero bootup values

   Move the variable into the .data section go gain even earlier
   zeroing

 - Expose & allow the IBPB-on-Entry feature on SNP guests, which
   was not properly exposed to guests due to initial implementational
   caution

 - Fix O= build failure when CONFIG_EFI_SBAT_FILE is using relative
   file paths

 - Fix the various SNC (Sub-NUMA Clustering) topology enumeration
   bugs/artifacts (sched-domain build errors mostly).

   SNC enumeration data got more complicated with Granite Rapids X
   (GNR) and Clearwater Forest X (CWF), which exposed these bugs
   and made their effects more serious

 - Also use the now sane(r) SNC code to fix resctrl SNC detection bugs

 - Work around a historic libgcc unwinder bug in the vdso32 sigreturn
   code (again), which regressed during an overly aggressive recent
   cleanup of DWARF annotations

Pull timer fix from Ingo Molnar:
 "Make clock_adjtime() syscall timex validation slightly more permissive
  for auxiliary clocks, to not reject syscalls based on the status field
  that do not try to modify the status field.

  This makes the ABI behavior in clock_adjtime() consistent with
  CLOCK_REALTIME"

Pull scheduler fix from Ingo Molnar:
 "Fix a DL scheduler bug that may corrupt internal metrics during PI and
  setscheduler() syscalls, resulting in kernel warnings and misbehavior.

  Found during stress-testing"

* tag 'sched-urgent-2026-03-08' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  sched/deadline: Fix missing ENQUEUE_REPLENISH during PI de-boosting

Saves two function calls, and one stac/clac pair.

stac/clac is rather expensive on older cpus like Zen 2.

A synthetic network stress test gives a ~1.5% increase of pps
on AMD Zen 2.

Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
 "Two core changes and the rest in drivers, one core change to quirk the
  behaviour of the Iomega Zip drive and one to fix a hang caused by tag
  reallocation problems, which has mostly been seen by the iscsi client.

  Note the latter fixes the problem but still has a slight sysfs memory
  leak, so will be amended in the next pull request (once we've run the
  fix for the fix through our testing)"

  which may prevent the kernel to boot.

  The three small patches here fix this"
