[GIT pull] x86/pti update for 5.1

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue Mar 05 2019 - 06:49:23 EST


Linus,

please pull the latest x86-pti-for-linus git tree from:

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

Just a single change from the anti-performance departement:

- Add a new PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC option which allows to apply the
speculation protections on a process without inheriting the state on
exec. Remedies a situation where a Java-launcher has speculation
protections enabled because that's the default for JVMs which causes the
launched regular harmless processes to inherit the protection state
which results in unintended performance degradation.

Thanks,

tglx
