Pull x86 cpu updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Misc updates:
- Extend the x86 family/model macros with a steppings dimension,
because x86 life isn't complex enough and Intel uses steppings to
differentiate between different CPUs. :-/
- Convert the TSC deadline timer quirks to the steppings macros.
- Clean up asm mnemonics.
- Fix the handling of an AMD erratum, or in other words, fix a kernel
erratum"
* tag 'x86-cpu-2020-06-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/cpu: Use RDRAND and RDSEED mnemonics in archrandom.h
x86/cpu: Use INVPCID mnemonic in invpcid.h
x86/cpu/amd: Make erratum #1054 a legacy erratum
x86/apic: Convert the TSC deadline timer matching to steppings macro
x86/cpu: Add a X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL_STEPPINGS() macro
x86/cpu: Add a steppings field to struct x86_cpu_id
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.
