      Pull x86/pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
       "Yet another pile of melted spectrum related updates:
      
         - Drop native vsyscall support finally as it causes more trouble than
           benefit.
      
         - Make microcode loading more robust. There were a few issues
           especially related to late loading which are now surfacing because
           late loading of the IB* microcodes addressing spectre issues has
           become more widely used.
      
         - Simplify and robustify the syscall handling in the entry code
      
         - Prevent kprobes on the entry trampoline code which lead to kernel
           crashes when the probe hits before CR3 is updated
      
         - Don't check microcode versions when running on hypervisors as they
           are considered as lying anyway.
      
         - Fix the 32bit objtool build and a coment typo"

      dmaengine: mv_xor_v2: Fix clock resource by adding a register clock · 3cd2c313
      Gregory CLEMENT authored
      On the CP110 components which are present on the Armada 7K/8K SoC we need
      to explicitly enable the clock for the registers. However it is not
      needed for the AP8xx component, that's why this clock is optional.
      
      With this patch both clock have now a name, but in order to be backward
      compatible, the name of the first clock is not used. It allows to still
      use this clock with a device tree using the old binding.
