      Pull timer update from Thomas Gleixner:
       "New defines for the compat time* types so they can be shared between
        32bit and 64bit builds. Not used yet, but merging them now allows the
        actual conversions to be merged through different maintainer trees
        without dependencies
      
        We still have compat interfaces for 32bit on 64bit even with the new
        2038 safe timespec/val variants because pointer size is different. And
        for the old style timespec/val interfaces we need yet another 'compat'
        interface for both 32bit native and 32bit on 64bit"

      Merge branch 'ida-4.19' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax · aba16dc5
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull IDA updates from Matthew Wilcox:
       "A better IDA API:
      
            id = ida_alloc(ida, GFP_xxx);
            ida_free(ida, id);
      
        rather than the cumbersome ida_simple_get(), ida_simple_remove().
      
        The new IDA API is similar to ida_simple_get() but better named.  The
        internal restructuring of the IDA code removes the bitmap
        preallocation nonsense.
      
        I hope the net -200 lines of code is convincing"

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
      
       - Correct the L1TF fallout on 32bit and the off by one in the 'too much
         RAM for protection' calculation.
      
       - Add a helpful kernel message for the 'too much RAM' case
      
       - Unbreak the VDSO in case that the compiler desides to use indirect
         jumps/calls and emits retpolines which cannot be resolved because the
         kernel uses its own thunks, which does not work for the VDSO. Make it
         use the builtin thunks.
      
       - Re-export start_thread() which was unexported when the 32/64bit
         implementation was unified. start_thread() is required by modular
         binfmt handlers.
      
       - Trivial cleanups
