Subject: [GIT pull] x86/pti fixes for 4.15

Linus,

please pull the latest x86-pti-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-pti-for-linus

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()

  - Plug the memory leak in the write_ldt() error path

Thanks,

	tglx
