Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 core updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Note that in this cycle most of the x86 topics interacted at a level
  that caused them to be merged into tip:x86/asm - but this should be a
  temporary phenomenon, hopefully we'll back to the usual patterns in
  the next merge window.

  The main changes in this cycle were:

  Hardware enablement:

   - Add support for the Intel UMIP (User Mode Instruction Prevention)
     CPU feature. This is a security feature that disables certain
     instructions such as SGDT, SLDT, SIDT, SMSW and STR. (Ricardo Neri)

     [ Note that this is disabled by default for now, there are some
       smaller enhancements in the pipeline that I'll follow up with in
       the next 1-2 days, which allows this to be enabled by default.]

   - Add support for the AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted Virtualization) CPU
     feature, on top of SME (Secure Memory Encryption) support that was
     added in v4.14. (Tom Lendacky, Brijesh Singh)

   - Enable new SSE/AVX/AVX512 CPU features: AVX512_VBMI2, GFNI, VAES,
     VPCLMULQDQ, AVX512_VNNI, AVX512_BITALG. (Gayatri Kammela)

  Other changes:

   - A big series of entry code simplifications and enhancements (Andy
     Lutomirski)

   - Make the ORC unwinder default on x86 and various objtool
     enhancements. (Josh Poimboeuf)

   - 5-level paging enhancements (Kirill A. Shutemov)

   - Micro-optimize the entry code a bit (Borislav Petkov)

   - Improve the handling of interdependent CPU features in the early
     FPU init code (Andi Kleen)

   - Build system enhancements (Changbin Du, Masahiro Yamada)

   - ... plus misc enhancements, fixes and cleanups"
