Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:
 "Extraordinary embargoed times call for extraordinary measures. That's
  why this week's x86/urgent branch is larger than usual, containing all
  the known fallout fixes after the SRSO mitigation got merged.

  I know, it is a bit late in the game but everyone who has reported a
  bug stemming from the SRSO pile, has tested that branch and has
  confirmed that it fixes their bug.

  Also, I've run it on every possible hardware I have and it is looking
  good. It is running on this very machine while I'm typing, for 2 days
  now without an issue. Famous last words...

   - Use LEA ...%rsp instead of ADD %rsp in the Zen1/2 SRSO return
     sequence as latter clobbers flags which interferes with fastop
     emulation in KVM, leading to guests freezing during boot

   - A fix for the DIV(0) quotient data leak on Zen1 to clear the
     divider buffers at the right time

   - Disable the SRSO mitigation on unaffected configurations as it got
     enabled there unnecessarily

   - Change .text section name to fix CONFIG_LTO_CLANG builds

   - Improve the optprobe indirect jmp check so that certain
     configurations can still be able to use optprobes at all

   - A serious and good scrubbing of the untraining routines by PeterZ:
      - Add proper speculation stopping traps so that objtool is happy
      - Adjust objtool to handle the new thunks
      - Make the thunk pointer assignable to the different untraining
        sequences at runtime, thus avoiding the alternative at the
        return thunk. It simplifies the code a bit too.
      - Add a entry_untrain_ret() main entry point which selects the
        respective untraining sequence
      - Rename things so that they're more clear
      - Fix stack validation with FRAME_POINTER=y builds

   - Fix static call patching to handle when a JMP to the return thunk
     is the last insn on the very last module memory page

   - Add more documentation about what each untraining routine does and
     why"
