Subject: [GIT PULL] x86/asm changes for v4.20
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2018 13:15:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181023111501.GA114423@gmail.com> (raw)

Linus,

Please pull the latest x86-asm-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-asm-for-linus

   # HEAD: ec3a94188df7d28b374868d9a2a0face910e62ab x86/fsgsbase/64: Clean up various details

The main changes in this cycle were the fsgsbase related preparatory 
patches from Chang S. Bae - but there's also an optimized 
memcpy_flushcache() and a cleanup for the __cmpxchg_double() assembly 
glue.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
