Pull x86 MPX removal from Dave Hansen:
 "MPX requires recompiling applications, which requires compiler
  support. Unfortunately, GCC 9.1 is expected to be be released without
  support for MPX. This means that there was only a relatively small
  window where folks could have ever used MPX. It failed to gain wide
  adoption in the industry, and Linux was the only mainstream OS to ever
  support it widely.

  Support for the feature may also disappear on future processors.

  This set completes the process that we started during the 5.4 merge
  window when the MPX prctl()s were removed. XSAVE support is left in
  place, which allows MPX-using KVM guests to continue to function"

* tag 'mpx-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/daveh/x86-mpx:

From: Dave Hansen &lt;dave.hansen@linux.intel.com&gt;

MPX is being removed from the kernel due to a lack of support
in the toolchain going forward (gcc).

This removes all the remaining (dead at this point) MPX handling
code remaining in the tree.  The only remaining code is the XSAVE
support for MPX state which is currently needd for KVM to handle
VMs which might use MPX.

instead of picking it up by an indirect include of asm/acpi.h.  acpi.h
will soon stop including realmode.h so that changing realmode.h doesn't

<title>mm, x86/mm: Untangle address space layout definitions from basic pgtable type definitions</title>

<id>186525bd6b83efc592672e2d6185e4d7c810d2b4</id>
<content type='text'>
- Untangle the somewhat incestous way of how VMALLOC_START is used all across the
  kernel, but is, on x86, defined deep inside one of the lowest level page table headers.
  It doesn't help that vmalloc.h only includes a single asm header:

     #include &lt;asm/page.h&gt;           /* pgprot_t */

  So there was no existing cross-arch way to decouple address layout
  definitions from page.h details. I used this:

   #ifndef VMALLOC_START
   # include &lt;asm/vmalloc.h&gt;
   #endif

  This way every architecture that wants to simplify page.h can do so.

- Also on x86 we had a couple of LDT related inline functions that used
  the late-stage address space layout positions - but these could be
  uninlined without real trouble - the end result is cleaner this way as
  well.

In 20 years we accumulated 89 #include lines in setup.c,
but we only need 30 of them (!) ...

Get rid of the excessive ones, and while at it, sort the
remaining ones alphabetically.

Also get rid of the incomplete changelogs at the header of the file,
and explain better what this file does.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision
  20191018, add support for EFI specific purpose memory, update the ACPI
  EC driver to make it work on systems with hardware-reduced ACPI,
  improve ACPI-based device enumeration for some platforms, rework the
  lid blacklist handling in the button driver and add more lid quirks to
  it, unify ACPI _HID/_UID matching, fix assorted issues and clean up
  the code and documentation.

  Specifics:

   - Update the ACPICA code in the kernel to upstream revision 20191018
     including:
      * Fixes for Clang warnings (Bob Moore)
      * Fix for possible overflow in get_tick_count() (Bob Moore)
      * Introduction of acpi_unload_table() (Bob Moore)
      * Debugger and utilities updates (Erik Schmauss)
      * Fix for unloading tables loaded via configfs (Nikolaus Voss)

   - Add support for EFI specific purpose memory to optionally allow
     either application-exclusive or core-kernel-mm managed access to
     differentiated memory (Dan Williams)

   - Fix and clean up processing of the HMAT table (Brice Goglin, Qian
     Cai, Tao Xu)

   - Update the ACPI EC driver to make it work on systems with
     hardware-reduced ACPI (Daniel Drake)

   - Always build in support for the Generic Event Device (GED) to allow
     one kernel binary to work both on systems with full hardware ACPI
     and hardware-reduced ACPI (Arjan van de Ven)

   - Fix the table unload mechanism to unregister platform devices
     created when the given table was loaded (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Rework the lid blacklist handling in the button driver and add more
     lid quirks to it (Hans de Goede)

   - Improve ACPI-based device enumeration for some platforms based on
     Intel BayTrail SoCs (Hans de Goede)

   - Add an OpRegion driver for the Cherry Trail Crystal Cove PMIC and
     prevent handlers from being registered for unhandled PMIC OpRegions
     (Hans de Goede)

   - Unify ACPI _HID/_UID matching (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Clean up documentation and comments (Cao jin, James Pack, Kacper
     Piwiński)"
