    Pull misc x86 updates from Borislav Petkov:
     "The main part of this branch is the ongoing fight against windmills in
      an attempt to have userspace tools not poke at naked MSRs.
    
      This round deals with MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS and removes direct
      poking into it by our in-tree tools in favor of the proper
      "energy_perf_bias" sysfs interface which we already have.
    
      In addition, the msr.ko write filtering's error message points to a
      new summary page which contains the info we collected from helpful
      reporters about which userspace tools write MSRs:
    
          https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/about
    
      along with the current status of their conversion.
    
      The rest is the usual small fixes and improvements"
