Linus Torvalds 27fd80851d Misc x86 fixes:
- Follow up fixes for the BHI mitigations code.
 
  - Fix !SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS bug not turning off
    mitigations as expected.
 
  - Work around an APIC emulation bug when the kernel is built with
    Clang and run as a SEV guest.
 
  - Follow up x86 topology fixes.
 
 Note that there's minor cleanups included in the BHI fixes,
 which we'd normally delay to the next merge window, but the
 BHI mitigations code is new and will be backported widely,
 so we thought it would be better to have a unified codebase
 at this stage. (Let me know if that assumption is wrong and
 I'll rebase it.)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
