Pull x86 fixes from Dave Hansen: "The most notable fix is THP not silently losing user data and having been around for a couple of years. The main explanation I'd have for its longevity is that it requires a few different things to align at the same time: MADV_FREE, THP and heavy reclaim. - Fix user-space data loss with THP - Fix set_memory oopses - Fix addition of large constants in mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64() - Fix FineIBT hash offset in cfi_get_func_hash() - Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init()" * tag 'x86_urgent_for_7.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/amd_node: Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init() x86/div64: Fix addition of large constants in mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64() x86/cfi: Fix FineIBT hash offset in cfi_get_func_hash() x86/mm: Fix user-space data loss with MADV_FREE and THP x86/mm/pat: Allocate split page tables as kernel page tables x86/alternatives: Exclude text poking against change_page_attr() x86/mm/pat: Acquire init_mm read lock on attribute changes to avoid UAF x86/mm/pat: Acquire init_mm write lock on collapse to avoid UAF
