Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"Various fixes:
- Fix the PAT performance regression that downgraded write-combining
device memory regions to uncached.
- There's been a number of bugs in 32-bit double fault handling -
hopefully all fixed now.
- Fix an LDT crash
- Fix an FPU over-optimization that broke with GCC9 code
optimizations.
- Misc cleanups"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
