Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull low-level x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "In this cycle this topic tree has become one of those 'super topics'
  that accumulated a lot of changes:

   - Add CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y support to the core kernel and enable it on
     x86 - preceded by an array of changes. v4.8 saw preparatory changes
     in this area already - this is the rest of the work. Includes the
     thread stack caching performance optimization. (Andy Lutomirski)

   - switch_to() cleanups and all around enhancements. (Brian Gerst)

   - A large number of dumpstack infrastructure enhancements and an
     unwinder abstraction. The secret long term plan is safe(r) live
     patching plus maybe another attempt at debuginfo based unwinding -
     but all these current bits are standalone enhancements in a frame
     pointer based debug environment as well. (Josh Poimboeuf)

   - More __ro_after_init and const annotations. (Kees Cook)

   - Enable KASLR for the vmemmap memory region. (Thomas Garnier)"

[ The virtually mapped stack changes are pretty fundamental, and not
  x86-specific per se, even if they are only used on x86 right now. ]
