[GIT pull] x86/pti fixes for 4.15

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Dec 31 2017 - 11:27:35 EST


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

x86/mm: Remove preempt_disable/enable() from __native_flush_tlb()
x86/ldt: Plug memory leak in error path
x86/ldt: Make LDT pgtable free conditional
