Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of fixes for x86:

   - Ensure that direct mapping alias is always flushed when changing
     page attributes. The optimization for small ranges failed to do so
     when the virtual address was in the vmalloc or module space.

   - Unbreak the trace event registration for syscalls without arguments
     caused by the refactoring of the SYSCALL_DEFINE0() macro.

   - Move the printk in the TSC deadline timer code to a place where it
     is guaranteed to only be called once during boot and cannot be
     rearmed by clearing warn_once after boot. If it's invoked post boot
     then lockdep rightfully complains about a potential deadlock as the
     calling context is different.

   - A series of fixes for objtool and the ORC unwinder addressing
     variety of small issues:

       - Stack offset tracking for indirect CFAs in objtool ignored
         subsequent pushs and pops

       - Repair the unwind hints in the register clearing entry ASM code

       - Make the unwinding in the low level exit to usermode code stop
         after switching to the trampoline stack. The unwind hint is no
         longer valid and the ORC unwinder emits a warning as it can't
         find the registers anymore.

       - Fix unwind hints in switch_to_asm() and rewind_stack_do_exit()
         which caused objtool to generate bogus ORC data.

       - Prevent unwinder warnings when dumping the stack of a
         non-current task as there is no way to be sure about the
         validity because the dumped stack can be a moving target.

       - Make the ORC unwinder behave the same way as the frame pointer
         unwinder when dumping an inactive tasks stack and do not skip
         the first frame.

       - Prevent ORC unwinding before ORC data has been initialized

       - Immediately terminate unwinding when a unknown ORC entry type
         is found.

       - Prevent premature stop of the unwinder caused by IRET frames.

       - Fix another infinite loop in objtool caused by a negative
         offset which was not catched.

       - Address a few build warnings in the ORC unwinder and add
         missing static/ro_after_init annotations"

Kristen found a hang in objtool when building with -ffunction-sections.

It was caused by evergreen_pcie_gen2_enable.cold() being laid out
immediately before evergreen_pcie_gen2_enable().  Since their "pfunc" is
always the same, find_jump_table() got into an infinite loop because it
didn't recognize the boundary between the two functions.

Fix that with a new prev_insn_same_sym() helper, which doesn't cross
subfunction boundaries.

<content type='text'>
When the current frame address (CFA) is stored on the stack (i.e.,
cfa-&gt;base == CFI_SP_INDIRECT), objtool neglects to adjust the stack
offset when there are subsequent pushes or pops.  This results in bad
ORC data at the end of the ENTER_IRQ_STACK macro, when it puts the
previous stack pointer on the stack and does a subsequent push.

This fixes the following unwinder warning:

  WARNING: can't dereference registers at 00000000f0a6bdba for ip interrupt_entry+0x9f/0xa0

If a switch jump table's indirect branch is in a ".cold" subfunction in
.text.unlikely, objtool doesn't detect it, and instead prints a false
warning:

  drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.o: warning: objtool: v4l_print_format.cold()+0xd6: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/hwmon/max6650.o: warning: objtool: max6650_probe.cold()+0xa5: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
  drivers/media/dvb-frontends/drxk_hard.o: warning: objtool: init_drxk.cold()+0x16f: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame

Fix it by comparing the function, instead of the section and offset.

<title>objtool: Fix CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP unreachable warnings</title>

<content type='text'>
CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP causes GCC to emit a UD2 whenever it encounters an
unreachable code path.  This includes __builtin_unreachable().  Because
the BUG() macro uses __builtin_unreachable() after it emits its own UD2,
this results in a double UD2.  In this case objtool rightfully detects
that the second UD2 is unreachable:

  init/main.o: warning: objtool: repair_env_string()+0x1c8: unreachable instruction

We weren't able to figure out a way to get rid of the double UD2s, so
just silence the warning.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - Continued user-access cleanups in the futex code.

   - percpu-rwsem rewrite that uses its own waitqueue and atomic_t
     instead of an embedded rwsem. This addresses a couple of
     weaknesses, but the primary motivation was complications on the -rt
     kernel.

   - Introduce raw lock nesting detection on lockdep
     (CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y), document the raw_lock vs. normal
     lock differences. This too originates from -rt.

   - Reuse lockdep zapped chain_hlocks entries, to conserve RAM
     footprint on distro-ish kernels running into the "BUG:
     MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!" depletion of the lockdep
     chain-entries pool.

   - Misc cleanups, smaller fixes and enhancements - see the changelog
     for details"

it's not really different from e.g. __sanitizer_cov_trace_cmp4();
as it is, the switches that generate an array of labels get
rejected by objtool, while slightly different set of cases
that gets compiled into a series of comparisons is accepted.
