Merge branch 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Two changes:
- Remove (some) remnants of the vDSO's fake section table mechanism
that were left behind when the vDSO build process reverted to using
"objdump -S" to strip the userspace image.
- Remove hardcoded POPCNT mnemonics now that the minimum binutils
version supports the symbolic form"
* 'x86-asm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/vdso: Remove a stale/misleading comment from the linker script
x86/vdso: Remove obsolete "fake section table" reservation
x86: Use POPCNT mnemonics in arch_hweight.h
