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: "A mixed bag of fixes and updates for the ghosts which are hunting us. The scheduler fixes have been pulled into that branch to avoid conflicts. - A set of fixes to address a khread_parkme() race which caused lost wakeups and loss of state. - A deadlock fix for stop_machine() solved by moving the wakeups outside of the stopper_lock held region. - A set of Spectre V1 array access restrictions. The possible problematic spots were discuvered by Dan Carpenters new checks in smatch. - Removal of an unused file which was forgotten when the rest of that functionality was removed" * 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/vdso: Remove unused file perf/x86/cstate: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for pkg_msr perf/x86/msr: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing in the MSR driver perf/x86: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for x86_pmu::event_map() perf/x86: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for hw_perf_event cache_* perf/core: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for ->aux_pages[] sched/autogroup: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for sched_prio_to_weight[] sched/core: Fix possible Spectre-v1 indexing for sched_prio_to_weight[] sched/core: Introduce set_special_state() kthread, sched/wait: Fix kthread_parkme() completion issue kthread, sched/wait: Fix kthread_parkme() wait-loop sched/fair: Fix the update of blocked load when newly idle stop_machine, sched: Fix migrate_swap() vs. active_balance() deadlock
