Merge tag 'x86-urgent-2022-06-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Make RESERVE_BRK() work again with older binutils. The recent
   'simplification' broke that.

 - Make early #VE handling increment RIP when successful.

 - Make the #VE code consistent vs. the RIP adjustments and add
   comments.

 - Handle load_unaligned_zeropad() across page boundaries correctly in
   #VE when the second page is shared.
