       "A set of fixes and updates for x86:
      
         - Address a swiotlb regression which was caused by the recent DMA
           rework and made driver fail because dma_direct_supported() returned
           false
      
         - Fix a signedness bug in the APIC ID validation which caused invalid
           APIC IDs to be detected as valid thereby bloating the CPU possible
           space.
      
         - Fix inconsisten config dependcy/select magic for the MFD_CS5535
           driver.
      
         - Fix a corruption of the physical address space bits when encryption
           has reduced the address space and late cpuinfo updates overwrite
           the reduced bit information with the original value.
      
         - Dominiks syscall rework which consolidates the architecture
           specific syscall functions so all syscalls can be wrapped with the
           same macros. This allows to switch x86/64 to struct pt_regs based
           syscalls. Extend the clearing of user space controlled registers in
           the entry patch to the lower registers"

      Pull more perf updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A rather large set of perf updates:
      
        Kernel:
      
         - Fix various initialization issues
      
         - Prevent creating [ku]probes for not CAP_SYS_ADMIN users
      
        Tooling:
      
         - Show only failing syscalls with 'perf trace --failure' (Arnaldo
           Carvalho de Melo)
      
                  e.g: See what 'openat' syscalls are failing:
      
              # perf trace --failure -e openat
               762.323 ( 0.007 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video2) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
               <SNIP N /dev/videoN open attempts... sigh, where is that improvised camera lid?!? >
               790.228 ( 0.008 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video63) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
              ^C#
      
         - Show information about the event (freq, nr_samples, total
           period/nr_events) in the annotate --tui and --stdio2 'perf
           annotate' output, similar to the first line in the 'perf report
           --tui', but just for the samples for a the annotated symbol
           (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Introduce 'perf version --build-options' to show what features were
           linked, aliased as well as a shorter 'perf -vv' (Jin Yao)
      
         - Add a "dso_size" sort order (Kim Phillips)
      
         - Remove redundant ')' in the tracepoint output in 'perf trace'
           (Changbin Du)
      
         - Synchronize x86's cpufeatures.h, no effect on toolss (Arnaldo
           Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Show group details on the title line in the annotate browser and
           'perf annotate --stdio2' output, so that the per-event columns can
           have headers (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Fixup vertical line separating metrics from instructions and
           cleaning unused lines at the bottom, both in the annotate TUI
           browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Remove duplicated 'samples' in lost samples warning in
           'perf report' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Synchronize i915_drm.h, silencing the perf build process,
           automagically adding support for the new DRM_I915_QUERY ioctl
           (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Make auxtrace_queues__add_buffer() allocate struct buffer, from a
           patchkit already applied (Adrian Hunter)
      
         - Fix the --stdio2/TUI annotate output to include group details, be
           it for a recorded '{a,b,f}' explicit event group or when forcing
           group display using 'perf report --group' for a set of events not
           recorded as a group (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Fix display artifacts in the ui browser (base class for the
           annotate and main report/top TUI browser) related to the extra
           title lines work (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - perf auxtrace refactorings, leftovers from a previously partially
           processed patchset (Adrian Hunter)
      
         - Fix the builtin clang build (Sandipan Das, Arnaldo Carvalho de
           Melo)
      
         - Synchronize i915_drm.h, silencing a perf build warning and in the
           process automagically adding support for a new ioctl command
           (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - Fix a strncpy issue in uprobe tracing"

      Pull irq affinity fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
      
        - Fix error path handling in the affinity spreading code
      
        - Make affinity spreading smarter to avoid issues on systems which
          claim to have hotpluggable CPUs while in fact they can't hotplug
          anything.
      
          So instead of trying to spread the vectors (and thereby the
          associated device queues) to all possibe CPUs, spread them on all
          present CPUs first. If there are left over vectors after that first
          step they are spread among the possible, but not present CPUs which
          keeps the code backwards compatible for virtual decives and NVME
          which allocate a queue per possible CPU, but makes the spreading
          smarter for devices which have less queues than possible or present
          CPUs.
      
      * 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
        genirq/affinity: Spread irq vectors among present CPUs as far as possible
        genirq/affinity: Allow irq spreading from a given starting point
        genirq/affinity: Move actual irq vector spreading into a helper function
        genirq/affinity: Rename *node_to_possible_cpumask as *node_to_cpumask
        genirq/affinity: Don't return with empty affinity masks on error
