      Pull x86/srso fixes from Borislav Petkov:
       "Add a mitigation for the speculative RAS (Return Address Stack)
        overflow vulnerability on AMD processors.
      
        In short, this is yet another issue where userspace poisons a
        microarchitectural structure which can then be used to leak privileged
        information through a side channel"

      Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
      
       - The recently added cpu_intensive auto detection and warning mechanism
         was spuriously triggered on slow CPUs.
      
         While not causing serious issues, it's still a nuisance and can cause
         unintended concurrency management behaviors.
      
         Relax the threshold on machines with lower BogoMIPS. While BogoMIPS
         is not an accurate measure of performance by most measures, we don't
         have to be accurate and it has rough but strong enough correlation.
