Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fix from Ingo Molnar: "Fix x86 syscall exit code bug that resulted in spurious non-execution of TIF-driven user-return worklets, causing big trouble for things like KVM that rely on user notifiers for correctness of their vcpu model, causing crashes like double faults" * 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/asm/entry: Check for syscall exit work with IRQs disabled
