Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar: "Misc fixes and small updates all around the place: - Fix mitigation state sysfs output - Fix an FPU xstate/sxave code assumption bug triggered by Architectural LBR support - Fix Lightning Mountain SoC TSC frequency enumeration bug - Fix kexec debug output - Fix kexec memory range assumption bug - Fix a boundary condition in the crash kernel code - Optimize porgatory.ro generation a bit - Enable ACRN guests to use X2APIC mode - Reduce a __text_poke() IRQs-off critical section for the benefit of PREEMPT_RT" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-08-15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/alternatives: Acquire pte lock with interrupts enabled x86/bugs/multihit: Fix mitigation reporting when VMX is not in use x86/fpu/xstate: Fix an xstate size check warning with architectural LBRs x86/purgatory: Don't generate debug info for purgatory.ro x86/tsr: Fix tsc frequency enumeration bug on Lightning Mountain SoC kexec_file: Correctly output debugging information for the PT_LOAD ELF header kexec: Improve & fix crash_exclude_mem_range() to handle overlapping ranges x86/crash: Correct the address boundary of function parameters x86/acrn: Remove redundant chars from ACRN signature x86/acrn: Allow ACRN guest to use X2APIC mode
