Merge tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.5_rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov: - AMD's automatic IBRS doesn't enable cross-thread branch target injection protection (STIBP) for user processes. Enable STIBP on such systems. - Do not delete (but put the ref instead) of AMD MCE error thresholding sysfs kobjects when destroying them in order not to delete the kernfs pointer prematurely - Restore annotation in ret_from_fork_asm() in order to fix kthread stack unwinding from being marked as unreliable and thus breaking livepatching * tag 'x86_urgent_for_v6.5_rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/cpu: Enable STIBP on AMD if Automatic IBRS is enabled x86/MCE/AMD: Decrement threshold_bank refcount when removing threshold blocks x86: Fix kthread unwind
