Merge tag 'x86_cpu_for_v5.16_rc1' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 cpu updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Start checking a CPUID bit on AMD Zen3 which states that the CPU
   clears the segment base when a null selector is written. Do the
   explicit detection on older CPUs, zen2 and hygon specifically, which
   have the functionality but do not advertize the CPUID bit. Factor in
   the presence of a hypervisor underneath the kernel and avoid doing
   the explicit check there which the HV might've decided to not
   advertize for migration safety reasons, or similar.

 - Add support for a new X86 CPU vendor: VORTEX. Needed for whitelisting
   those CPUs in the hardware vulnerabilities detection

 - Force the compiler to use rIP-relative addressing in the fallback
   path of static_cpu_has(), in order to avoid unnecessary register
   pressure
