commit a833581e372a4adae2319d8dc379493edbc444e9 upstream.

Mikulas reported his K6-3 not booting. This is because the
static_key API confusion struck and bit Andy, this wants to be
static_key_false().

<title>x86/kasan: Fix KASAN shadow region page tables</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 5d5aa3cfca5cf74cd928daf3674642e6004328d1 upstream.

Currently KASAN shadow region page tables created without
respect of physical offset (phys_base). This causes kernel halt
when phys_base is not zero.

So let's initialize KASAN shadow region page tables in
kasan_early_init() using __pa_nodebug() which considers
phys_base.

This patch also separates x86_64_start_kernel() from KASAN low
level details by moving kasan_map_early_shadow(init_level4_pgt)
into kasan_early_init().

Remove the comment before clear_bss() which stopped bringing
much profit to the code readability. Otherwise describing all
the new order dependencies would be too verbose.

commit 42720138b06301cc8a7ee8a495a6d021c4b6a9bc upstream.

Writes were a bit racy, but hard to turn into a bug at the same time.
(Particularly because modern Linux doesn't use this feature anymore.)

<content type='text'>
The early_idt_handlers asm code generates an array of entry
points spaced nine bytes apart.  It's not really clear from that
code or from the places that reference it what's going on, and
the code only works in the first place because GAS never
generates two-byte JMP instructions when jumping to global
labels.

Clean up the code to generate the correct array stride (member size)
explicitly. This should be considerably more robust against
screw-ups, as GAS will warn if a .fill directive has a negative
count.  Using '. =' to advance would have been even more robust
(it would generate an actual error if it tried to move
backwards), but it would pad with nulls, confusing anyone who
tries to disassemble the code.  The new scheme should be much
clearer to future readers.

While we're at it, improve the comments and rename the array and
common code.

Binutils may start relaxing jumps to non-weak labels.  If so,
this change will fix our build, and we may need to backport this
change.

<title>x86/asm/entry/32: Really make user_mode() work correctly for VM86 mode</title>

While commit efa7045103 ("x86/asm/entry: Make user_mode() work
correctly if regs came from VM86 mode") claims that "user_mode()
is now identical to user_mode_vm()", this wasn't actually the
case - no prior commit made it so.

<title>tools/power turbostat: enable turbostat to support Knights Landing (KNL)</title>

<id>fb5d432722e186c656285ccc088e35dbe24f6fd1</id>
<content type='text'>
Changes mainly to account for minor differences in Knights Landing(KNL):
1. KNL supports C1 and C6 core states.
2. KNL supports PC2, PC3 and PC6 package states.
3. KNL has a different encoding of the TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT MSR

The MPX feature requires eager KVM FPU restore support. We have verified
that MPX cannot work correctly with the current lazy KVM FPU restore
mechanism. Eager KVM FPU restore should be enabled if the MPX feature is
exposed to VM.
