      Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 181da3c3
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
       "A somewhat unpleasantly large collection of small fixes.  The big ones
        are the __visible tree sweep and a fix for 'earlyprintk=efi,keep'.  It
        was using __init functions with predictably suboptimal results.
      
        Another key fix is a build fix which would produce output that simply
        would not decompress correctly in some configuration, due to the
        existing Makefiles picking up an unfortunate local label and mistaking
        it for the global symbol _end.
      
        Additional fixes include the handling of 64-bit numbers when setting
        the vdso data page (a latent bug which became manifest when i386
        started exporting a vdso with time functions), a fix to the new MSR
        manipulation accessors which would cause features to not get properly
        unblocked, a build fix for 32-bit userland, and a few new platform
        quirks"

      x86, vdso, time: Cast tv_nsec to u64 for proper shifting in update_vsyscall() · 28b92e09

      With tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec being a 32-bit value on 32-bit
      systems, (tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift) in update_vsyscall()
      may lose upper bits or, worse, add them since compiler will do this:
      	(u64)(tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift)
      instead of
      	((u64)tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec << tk->shift)
      
      So if, for example, tv_nsec is 0x800000 and shift is 8 we will end up
      with 0xffffffff80000000 instead of 0x80000000. And then we are stuck in
      the subsequent 'while' loop.
      
      We need an explicit cast.
