Hi Linus,

I hope this is the last batch of x86/urgent updates for this round.

Pls pull,
thx.

  x86/efi: Remove EFI PGD build time checks (2021-02-06 13:54:14 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- Remove superfluous EFI PGD range checks which lead to those assertions failing
with certain kernel configs and LLVM.

- Disable setting breakpoints on facilities involved in #DB exception handling
to avoid infinite loops.

- Add extra serialization to non-serializing MSRs (IA32_TSC_DEADLINE and
x2 APIC MSRs) to adhere to SDM's recommendation and avoid any theoretical
issues.

- Re-add the EPB MSR reading on turbostat so that it works on older
kernels which don't have the corresponding EPB sysfs file.

- Add Alder Lake to the list of CPUs which support split lock.

- Fix %dr6 register handling in order to be able to set watchpoints with gdb
again.

- Disable CET instrumentation in the kernel so that gcc doesn't add
ENDBR64 to kernel code and thus confuse tracing.
