Merge branch 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 pti fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A small set of fixes for the meltdown/spectre mitigations: - Make kprobes aware of retpolines to prevent probes in the retpoline thunks. - Make the machine check exception speculation protected. MCE used to issue an indirect call directly from the ASM entry code. Convert that to a direct call into a C-function and issue the indirect call from there so the compiler can add the retpoline protection, - Make the vmexit_fill_RSB() assembly less stupid - Fix a typo in the PTI documentation" * 'x86-pti-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/retpoline: Optimize inline assembler for vmexit_fill_RSB x86/pti: Document fix wrong index kprobes/x86: Disable optimizing on the function jumps to indirect thunk kprobes/x86: Blacklist indirect thunk functions for kprobes retpoline: Introduce start/end markers of indirect thunk x86/mce: Make machine check speculation protected
