Merge branch 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The changes in here are:

   - text_poke() fixes and an extensive set of executability lockdowns,
     to (hopefully) eliminate the last residual circumstances under
     which we are using W|X mappings even temporarily on x86 kernels.
     This required a broad range of surgery in text patching facilities,
     module loading, trampoline handling and other bits.

   - tweak page fault messages to be more informative and more
     structured.

   - remove DISCONTIGMEM support on x86-32 and make SPARSEMEM the
     default.

   - reduce KASLR granularity on 5-level paging kernels from 512 GB to
     1 GB.

   - misc other changes and updates"
