Subject[GIT pull] x86 fixes for 4.13
Linus,

please pull the latest x86-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-urgent-for-linus

This update contains:

- Expand the space for uncompressing as the LZ4 worst case does not fit
into the currently reserved space.

- Validate boot parameters more strictly to prevent out of bound access in
the decompressor/boot code.

- Fix off by one errors in get_segment_base().

Thanks,

tglx
