Linus Torvalds 8d561baae5 Merge tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.17_rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Remove a transitional asm/cpuid.h header which was added only as a
   fallback during cpuid helpers reorg

 - Initialize reserved fields in the SVSM page validation calls
   structure to zero in order to allow for future structure extensions

 - Have the sev-guest driver's buffers used in encryption operations be
   in linear mapping space as the encryption operation can be offloaded
   to an accelerator

 - Have a read-only MSR write when in an AMD SNP guest trap to the
   hypervisor as it is usually done. This makes the guest user
   experience better by simply raising a #GP instead of terminating said
   guest

 - Do not output AVX512 elapsed time for kernel threads because the data
   is wrong and fix a NULL pointer dereferencing in the process

 - Adjust the SRSO mitigation selection to the new attack vectors

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
