Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
   'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:

      - This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
        via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
        compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
        inline assembly code.

      - The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
        various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
        accesses in assembly code.

      - These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
        last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.

 - Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
   of FPU switching - which also generates better code

 - Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
   slightly better code

 - Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
   make it easier for distros to follow &amp; maintain these options

 - Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and to clean up the
   logic

 - Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic

 - Misc cleanups and fixes

Let cpu_init_exception_handling() call cpu_init_fred_exceptions() to
initialize FRED. However if FRED is unavailable or disabled, it falls
back to set up TSS IST and initialize IDT.

<title>x86/fred: Add a debug fault entry stub for FRED</title>

<content type='text'>
When occurred on different ring level, i.e., from user or kernel context,
stack, while kernel #DB on a dedicated stack. This is exactly how FRED
event delivery invokes an exception handler: ring 3 event on level 0
stack, i.e., current task stack; ring 0 event on the #DB dedicated stack
specified in the IA32_FRED_STKLVLS MSR. So unlike IDT, the FRED debug
exception entry stub doesn't do stack switch.

On a FRED system, the debug trap status information (DR6) is passed on
the stack, to avoid the problem of transient state. Furthermore, FRED
transitions avoid a lot of ugly corner cases the handling of which can,
and should be, skipped.

The FRED debug trap status information saved on the stack differs from
DR6 in both stickiness and polarity; it is exactly in the format which
debug_read_clear_dr6() returns for the IDT entry points.

Let command line option "fred" accept multiple options to make it
easier to tweak its behavior.

Currently, two options 'on' and 'off' are allowed, and the default
behavior is to disable FRED. To enable FRED, append "fred=on" to the
kernel command line.

<title>iommu: Add mm_get_enqcmd_pasid() helper function</title>

<content type='text'>
mm_get_enqcmd_pasid() should be used by architecture code and closely
related to learn the PASID value that the x86 ENQCMD operation should
use for the mm.

For the moment SMMUv3 uses this without any connection to ENQCMD, it
will be cleaned up similar to how the prior patch made VT-d use the
PASID argument of set_dev_pasid().

The motivation is to replace mm-&gt;pasid with an iommu private data
structure that is introduced in a later patch.

<title>iommu: Change kconfig around IOMMU_SVA</title>

Linus suggested that the kconfig here is confusing:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgUiAtiszwseM1p2fCJ+sC4XWQ+YN4TanFhUgvUqjr9Xw@mail.gmail.com/

Let's break it into three kconfigs controlling distinct things:

 - CONFIG_IOMMU_MM_DATA controls if the mm_struct has the additional
   fields for the IOMMU. Currently only PASID, but later patches store
   a struct iommu_mm_data *

 - CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID controls if the arch needs the scheduling bit
   for keeping track of the ENQCMD instruction. x86 will select this if
   IOMMU_SVA is enabled

 - IOMMU_SVA controls if the IOMMU core compiles in the SVA support code
   for iommu driver use and the IOMMU exported API

This way ARM will not enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_PASID
