Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Remove the unused per rq load array and all its infrastructure, by
   Dietmar Eggemann.

 - Add utilization clamping support by Patrick Bellasi. This is a
   refinement of the energy aware scheduling framework with support for
   boosting of interactive and capping of background workloads: to make
   sure critical GUI threads get maximum frequency ASAP, and to make
   sure background processing doesn't unnecessarily move to cpufreq
   governor to higher frequencies and less energy efficient CPU modes.

 - Add the bare minimum of tracepoints required for LISA EAS regression
   testing, by Qais Yousef - which allows automated testing of various
   power management features, including energy aware scheduling.

 - Restructure the former tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() facility that the -rt
   kernel used to modify the scheduler's CPU affinity logic such as
   migrate_disable() - introduce the task-&gt;cpus_ptr value instead of
   taking the address of &amp;task-&gt;cpus_allowed directly - by Sebastian
   Andrzej Siewior.

 - Misc optimizations, fixes, cleanups and small enhancements - see the
   Git log for details.

A recent fix to the cbm_ensure_valid() function left some coding style
issues that are now addressed:

- Return a value instead of using a function parameter as input and
  output
- Use if (!val) instead of if (val == 0)
- Follow reverse fir tree ordering of variable declarations

<content type='text'>
While the DOC at the beginning of lib/bitmap.c explicitly states that
"The number of valid bits in a given bitmap does _not_ need to be an
exact multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.", some of the bitmap operations do
indeed access BITS_PER_LONG portions of the provided bitmap no matter
the size of the provided bitmap.

For example, if find_first_bit() is provided with an 8 bit bitmap the
operation will access BITS_PER_LONG bits from the provided bitmap. While
the operation ensures that these extra bits do not affect the result,
the memory is still accessed.

The capacity bitmasks (CBMs) are typically stored in u32 since they
can never exceed 32 bits. A few instances exist where a bitmap_*
operation is performed on a CBM by simply pointing the bitmap operation
to the stored u32 value.

The consequence of this pattern is that some bitmap_* operations will
access out-of-bounds memory when interacting with the provided CBM.

This same issue has previously been addressed with commit 49e00eee0061
("x86/intel_rdt: Fix out-of-bounds memory access in CBM tests")
but at that time not all instances of the issue were fixed.

Fix this by using an unsigned long to store the capacity bitmask data
that is passed to bitmap functions.

Fixes: e651901187ab ("x86/intel_rdt: Introduce "bit_usage" to display cache allocations details")
Fixes: f4e80d67a527 ("x86/intel_rdt: Resctrl files reflect pseudo-locked information")

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The accumulated fixes from this and last week:

   - Fix vmalloc TLB flush and map range calculations which lead to
     stale TLBs, spurious faults and other hard to diagnose issues.

   - Use fault_in_pages_writable() for prefaulting the user stack in the
     FPU code as it's less fragile than the current solution

   - Use the PF_KTHREAD flag when checking for a kernel thread instead
     of current-&gt;mm as the latter can give the wrong answer due to
     use_mm()

   - Compute the vmemmap size correctly for KASLR and 5-Level paging.
     Otherwise this can end up with a way too small vmemmap area.

   - Make KASAN and 5-level paging work again by making sure that all
     invalid bits are masked out when computing the P4D offset. This
     worked before but got broken recently when the LDT remap area was
     moved.

   - Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in the resource control code
     which can be triggered with certain mount options when the
     requested resource is not available.

   - Enforce ordering of microcode loading vs. perf initialization on
     secondary CPUs. Otherwise perf tries to access a non-existing MSR
     as the boot CPU marked it as available.

   - Don't stop the resource control group walk early otherwise the
     control bitmaps are not updated correctly and become inconsistent.

   - Unbreak kgdb by returning 0 on success from
     kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() instead of an error code.

   - Add more Icelake CPU model defines so depending changes can be
     queued in other trees"

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The accumulated fixes from this and last week:

   - Fix vmalloc TLB flush and map range calculations which lead to
     stale TLBs, spurious faults and other hard to diagnose issues.

   - Use fault_in_pages_writable() for prefaulting the user stack in the
     FPU code as it's less fragile than the current solution

   - Use the PF_KTHREAD flag when checking for a kernel thread instead
     of current-&gt;mm as the latter can give the wrong answer due to
     use_mm()

   - Compute the vmemmap size correctly for KASLR and 5-Level paging.
     Otherwise this can end up with a way too small vmemmap area.

   - Make KASAN and 5-level paging work again by making sure that all
     invalid bits are masked out when computing the P4D offset. This
     worked before but got broken recently when the LDT remap area was
     moved.

   - Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in the resource control code
     which can be triggered with certain mount options when the
     requested resource is not available.

   - Enforce ordering of microcode loading vs. perf initialization on
     secondary CPUs. Otherwise perf tries to access a non-existing MSR
     as the boot CPU marked it as available.

   - Don't stop the resource control group walk early otherwise the
     control bitmaps are not updated correctly and become inconsistent.

   - Unbreak kgdb by returning 0 on success from
     kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() instead of an error code.

   - Add more Icelake CPU model defines so depending changes can be
     queued in other trees"

Booting with kernel parameter "rdt=cmt,mbmtotal,memlocal,l3cat,mba" and
executing "mount -t resctrl resctrl -o mba_MBps /sys/fs/resctrl" results in
a NULL pointer dereference on systems which do not have local MBM support
enabled..

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
PGD 0 P4D 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
CPU: 0 PID: 722 Comm: kworker/0:3 Not tainted 5.2.0-0.rc3.git0.1.el7_UNSUPPORTED.x86_64 #2
Workqueue: events mbm_handle_overflow
RIP: 0010:mbm_handle_overflow+0x150/0x2b0

Only enter the bandwith update loop if the system has local MBM enabled.
