Linus Torvalds c6536676c7 - turn the stack canary into a normal __percpu variable on 32-bit which
gets rid of the LAZY_GS stuff and a lot of code.
 
 - Add an insn_decode() API which all users of the instruction decoder
 should preferrably use. Its goal is to keep the details of the
 instruction decoder away from its users and simplify and streamline how
 one decodes insns in the kernel. Convert its users to it.
 
 - kprobes improvements and fixes
 
 - Set the maximum DIE per package variable on Hygon
 
 - Rip out the dynamic NOP selection and simplify all the machinery around
 selecting NOPs. Use the simplified NOPs in objtool now too.
 
 - Add Xeon Sapphire Rapids to list of CPUs that support PPIN
 
 - Simplify the retpolines by folding the entire thing into an
 alternative now that objtool can handle alternatives with stack
 ops. Then, have objtool rewrite the call to the retpoline with the
 alternative which then will get patched at boot time.
 
 - Document Intel uarch per models in intel-family.h
 
 - Make Sub-NUMA Clustering topology the default and Cluster-on-Die the
 exception on Intel.
