Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of x86 and membarrier fixes:
- Correct a few problems in the x86 and the generic membarrier
implementation. Small corrections for assumptions about visibility
which have turned out not to be true.
- Make the PAT bits for memory encryption correct vs 4K and 2M/1G
page table entries as they are at a different location.
- Fix a concurrency issue in the the local bandwidth readout of
resource control leading to incorrect values
- Fix the ordering of allocating a vector for an interrupt. The order
missed to respect the provided cpumask when the first attempt of
allocating node local in the mask fails. It then tries the node
instead of trying the full provided mask first. This leads to
erroneous error messages and breaking the (user) supplied affinity
request. Reorder it.
- Make the INT3 padding detection in optprobe work correctly"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
