Hi Thomas,

I see you pushed that in the tree but I think you need to rebase, mainly:

commit 43d5c223374710cc41617ca6e33284eb1f646277 (speck/master, l1tf)
Author: speck for Andi Kleen <speck@linutronix.de>		<== 'speck for'
Date:   Wed Jun 13 15:48:28 2018 -0700

    x86/speculation/l1tf: Limit swap file size to MAX_PA/2

is on them.
