      Pull EFI fixes from Ard Biesheuvel:
      
       - Fix logic that is supposed to prevent placement of the kernel image
         below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR
      
       - Use the firmware stack in the EFI stub when running in mixed mode
      
       - Clear BSS only once when using mixed mode
      
       - Check efi.get_variable() function pointer for NULL before trying to
         call it

      Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
      
       - Ensure that the encryption mask at boot is properly propagated on
         5-level page tables, otherwise the PGD entry is incorrectly set to
         non-encrypted, which causes system crashes during boot.
      
       - Undo the deferred 5-level page table setup as it cannot work with
         memory encryption enabled.
      
       - Prevent inconsistent XFD state on CPU hotplug, where the MSR is reset
         to the default value but the cached variable is not, so subsequent
         comparisons might yield the wrong result and as a consequence the
         result prevents updating the MSR.
      
       - Register the local APIC address only once in the MPPARSE enumeration
         to prevent triggering the related WARN_ONs() in the APIC and topology
         code.
      
       - Handle the case where no APIC is found gracefully by registering a
         fake APIC in the topology code. That makes all related topology
         functions work correctly and does not affect th...

      Pull scheduler doc clarification from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A single update for the documentation of the base_slice_ns tunable to
        clarify that any value which is less than the tick slice has no effect
        because the scheduler tick is not guaranteed to happen within the set
        time slice"
