    Merge branch 'WIP.x86-pti.entry-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 64a48099
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull x86 syscall entry code changes for PTI from Ingo Molnar:
     "The main changes here are Andy Lutomirski's changes to switch the
      x86-64 entry code to use the 'per CPU entry trampoline stack'. This,
      besides helping fix KASLR leaks (the pending Page Table Isolation
      (PTI) work), also robustifies the x86 entry code"
