Merge branch 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The changes in here are:
- text_poke() fixes and an extensive set of executability lockdowns,
to (hopefully) eliminate the last residual circumstances under
which we are using W|X mappings even temporarily on x86 kernels.
This required a broad range of surgery in text patching facilities,
module loading, trampoline handling and other bits.
- tweak page fault messages to be more informative and more
structured.
- remove DISCONTIGMEM support on x86-32 and make SPARSEMEM the
default.
- reduce KASLR granularity on 5-level paging kernels from 512 GB to
1 GB.
- misc other changes and updates"
