Merge branch 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linu…

…x/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 cpu handling changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Bigger changes:

   - Intel CPU hardware-enablement: new vector instructions support
     (AVX-512), by Fenghua Yu.

   - Support the clflushopt instruction and use it in appropriate
     places.  clflushopt is similar to clflush but with more relaxed
     ordering, by Ross Zwisler.

   - MSR accessor cleanups, by Borislav Petkov.

   - 'forcepae' boot flag for those who have way too much time to spend
     on way too old Pentium-M systems and want to live way too
     dangerously, by Chris Bainbridge"

* 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  x86, cpu: Add forcepae parameter for booting PAE kernels on PAE-disabled Pentium M
  Rename TAINT_UNSAFE_SMP to TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC
  x86, intel: Make MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE bit constants systematic
  x86, Intel: Convert to the new bit access MSR accessors
  x86, AMD: Convert to the new bit access MSR accessors
  x86: Add another set of MSR accessor functions
  x86: Use clflushopt in drm_clflush_virt_range
  x86: Use clflushopt in drm_clflush_page
  x86: Use clflushopt in clflush_cache_range
  x86: Add support for the clflushopt instruction
  x86, AVX-512: Enable AVX-512 States Context Switch
  x86, AVX-512: AVX-512 Feature Detection
