Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest part is a series of reverts for the macro based GCC
  inlining workarounds. It caused regressions in distro build and other
  kernel tooling environments, and the GCC project was very receptive to
  fixing the underlying inliner weaknesses - so as time ran out we
  decided to do a reasonably straightforward revert of the patches. The
  plan is to rely on the 'asm inline' GCC 9 feature, which might be
  backported to GCC 8 and could thus become reasonably widely available
  on modern distros.

  Other than those reverts, there's misc fixes from all around the
  place.

  I wish our final x86 pull request for v4.20 was smaller..."

This reverts commit 5bdcd510c2ac9efaf55c4cbd8d46421d8e2320cd.

The macro based workarounds for GCC's inlining bugs caused regressions: distcc
and other distro build setups broke, and the fixes are not easy nor will they
solve regressions on already existing installations.

So we are reverting this patch and the 8 followup patches.

What makes this revert easier is that GCC9 will likely include the new 'asm inline'
syntax that makes inlining of assembly blocks a lot more robust.

This is a superior method to any macro based hackeries - and might even be
backported to GCC8, which would make all modern distros get the inlining
fixes as well.

Many thanks to Masahiro Yamada and others for helping sort out these problems.

<title>kvm: x86: Add AMD's EX_CFG to the list of ignored MSRs</title>

Some guests OSes (including Windows 10) write to MSR 0xc001102c
on some cases (possibly while trying to apply a CPU errata).
Make KVM ignore reads and writes to that MSR, so the guest won't
crash.

The MSR is documented as "Execution Unit Configuration (EX_CFG)",
at AMD's "BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide (BKDG) for AMD Family
15h Models 00h-0Fh Processors".

<title>x86/fsgsbase/64: Fix the base write helper functions</title>

Andy spotted a regression in the fs/gs base helpers after the patch series
was committed. The helper functions which write fs/gs base are not just
writing the base, they are also changing the index. That's wrong and needs
to be separated because writing the base has not to modify the index.

While the regression is not causing any harm right now because the only
caller depends on that behaviour, it's a guarantee for subtle breakage down
the road.

Make the index explicitly changed from the caller, instead of including
the code in the helpers.

Subsequently, the task write helpers do not handle for the current task
anymore. The range check for a base value is also factored out, to minimize
code redundancy from the caller.
