Merge branch 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 cpu updates from Peter Anvin: "This is a corrected attempt at the x86/cpu branch, this time with the fixes in that makes it not break on KVM (current or past), or any other virtualizer which traps on this configuration. Again, the biggest change here is enabling the WC+ memory type on AMD processors, if the BIOS doesn't." * 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, kvm: Add MSR_AMD64_BU_CFG2 to the list of ignored MSRs x86, cpu, amd: Fix WC+ workaround for older virtual hosts x86, AMD: Enable WC+ memory type on family 10 processors x86, AMD: Clean up init_amd() x86/process: Change %8s to %s for pr_warn() in release_thread() x86/cpu/hotplug: Remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL dependency
