      Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Another set of melted spectrum updates:

   - Iron out the last late microcode loading issues by actually
     checking whether new microcode is present and preventing the CPU
     synchronization to run into a timeout induced hang.

   - Remove Skylake C2 from the microcode blacklist according to the
     latest Intel documentation

   - Fix the VM86 POPF emulation which traps if VIP is set, but VIF is
     not. Enhance the selftests to catch that kind of issue

   - Annotate indirect calls/jumps for objtool on 32bit. This is not a
     functional issue, but for consistency sake its the right thing to
     do.

   - Fix a jump label build warning observed on SPARC64 which uses 32bit
     storage for the code location which is casted to 64 bit pointer w/o
     extending it to 64bit first.

   - Add two new cpufeature bits. Not really an urgent issue, but
     provides them for both x86 and x86/kvm work. No impact on the
     current kernel"

      parisc: Handle case where flush_cache_range is called with no context · 9ef0f88f
      John David Anglin authored 
      Just when I had decided that flush_cache_range() was always called with
a valid context, Helge reported two cases where the
"BUG_ON(!vma->vm_mm->context);" was hit on the phantom buildd:

This indicates that we need to handle the no context case in
flush_cache_range() as we do in flush_cache_mm().

In thinking about this, I realized that we don't need to flush the TLB
when there is no context.  So, I added context checks to the large flush
cases in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range().  The large flush case
occurs frequently in flush_cache_mm() and the change should improve fork
performance.

The v2 version of this change removes the BUG_ON from flush_cache_page()
by skipping the TLB flush when there is no context.  I also added code
to flush the TLB in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range() when we
have a context that's not current.  Now all three routines handle TLB
flushes in a similar manner.
