[PATCH 0/3] tip-queue 2015-08-10

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

Hi Ingo,

here's a little stuff which got done baking. More specifically, the use
of this new MWAITX insn on AMD as a more power-optimal delay function.
Patch 3's commit message has details as to how exactly it was measured.
The power measurement interface will be part of fam15h_power soon too.

Please queue for 4.3.

Btw, patch 3 uses rdtsc_ordered() which is in tip/x86/asm... Patch 1
goes to tip/x86/microcode, of course.

Thanks.

Andrzej Hajda (1):
  x86/microcode: Use kmemdup() rather than duplicating its
    implementation

Huang Rui (2):
  x86/asm: Add MONITORX/MWAITX insns support
  x86/asm: Introduce an MWAITX-based delay with a configurable timer
