      Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A couple of fixlets for x86:
      
         - Fix the ESPFIX double fault handling for 5-level pagetables
      
         - Fix the commandline parsing for 'apic=' on 32bit systems and update
           documentation
      
         - Make zombie stack traces reliable
      
         - Fix kexec with stack canary
      
         - Fix the delivery mode for APICs which was missed when the x86
           vector management was converted to single target delivery. Caused a
           regression due to the broken hardware which ignores affinity
           settings in lowest prio delivery mode.
      
         - Unbreak modules when AMD memory encryption is enabled
      
         - Remove an unused parameter of prepare_switch_to"
      
      * 'x86/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
        x86/apic: Switch all APICs to Fixed delivery mode
        x86/apic: Update the 'apic=' description of setting APIC driver
        x86/apic: Avoid wrong warning when parsing 'apic=' in X86-32 case
        x86-32: Fix kexec with stack canary (CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR)
        x86: Remove unused parameter of prepare_switch_to
        x86/stacktrace: Make zombie stack traces reliable
        x86/mm: Unbreak modules that use the DMA API
        x86/build: Make isoimage work on Debian
        x86/espfix/64: Fix espfix double-fault handling on 5-level systems

      Pull x86 page table isolation fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "Four patches addressing the PTI fallout as discussed and debugged
        yesterday:
      
         - Remove stale and pointless TLB flush invocations from the hotplug
           code
      
         - Remove stale preempt_disable/enable from __native_flush_tlb()

      Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A pile of fixes for long standing issues with the timer wheel and the
        NOHZ code:
      
         - Prevent timer base confusion accross the nohz switch, which can
           cause unlocked access and data corruption
      
         - Reinitialize the stale base clock on cpu hotplug to prevent subtle
           side effects including rollovers on 32bit
      
         - Prevent an interrupt storm when the timer softirq is already
           pending caused by tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
      
         - Move the timer start tracepoint to a place where it actually makes
           sense
      
         - Add documentation to timerqueue functions as they caused confusion
           several times now"
      
      * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
        timerqueue: Document return values of timerqueue_add/del()
        timers: Invoke timer_start_debug() where it makes sense
        nohz: Prevent a timer interrupt storm in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
        timers: Reinitialize per cpu bases on hotplug
        timers: Use deferrable base independent of base::nohz_active
