Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Last minute x86 fixes:

   - Fix a softlockup detector warning and long delays if using ptdump
     with KASAN enabled.

   - Two more TSC-adjust fixes for interesting firmware interactions.

   - Two commits to fix an AMD CPU topology enumeration bug that caused
     a measurable gaming performance regression"
