Pull x86 pti fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two small updates for the speculative distractions:
- Make it more clear to the compiler that array_index_mask_nospec()
is not subject for optimizations. It's not perfect, but ...
- Don't report XEN PV guests as vulnerable because their mitigation
state depends on the hypervisor. Report unknown and refer to the
hypervisor requirement"

x86/spectre_v1: Disable compiler optimizations over array_index_mask_nospec()

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
