Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of x86 fixes:
- Prevent potential NULL pointer dereferences in the HPET and HyperV
code
- Exclude the GART aperture from /proc/kcore to prevent kernel
crashes on access
- Use the correct macros for Cyrix I/O on Geode processors
- Remove yet another kernel address printk leak
- Announce microcode reload completion as requested by quite some
people. Microcode loading has become popular recently.
- Some 'Make Clang' happy fixlets
- A few cleanups for recently added code"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
