Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of x86 fixes:
- Use SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK in the mem* ASM functions instead of a
combination of .weak and SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL which makes LLVMs
integrated assembler upset
- Correct the mitigation selection logic which prevented the related
prctl to work correctly
- Make the UV5 hubless system work correctly by fixing up the
malformed table entries and adding the missing ones"

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.
