Merge branch 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main x86 MM changes in this cycle were:
- continued native kernel PCID support preparation patches to the TLB
flushing code (Andy Lutomirski)
- various fixes related to 32-bit compat syscall returning address
over 4Gb in applications, launched from 64-bit binaries - motivated
by C/R frameworks such as Virtuozzo. (Dmitry Safonov)
- continued Intel 5-level paging enablement: in particular the
conversion of x86 GUP to the generic GUP code. (Kirill A. Shutemov)
- x86/mpx ABI corner case fixes/enhancements (Joerg Roedel)
- ... plus misc updates, fixes and cleanups"
